HELLO EVERYBODY!
You have probably all forgotten about me by now......
I feel like I\'m in church confessing...
It has been 2 years since my last post.... Haha.
I\'m living in Sydney now, and the RX7 has progressed.
So I thought I\'d give you an update.
It\'s running now, and had the first outing at Wakefield Park yesterday.
Still only a run in tune, on 13PSI as new engine. But had around 225KW at the rears. Ric\'s dyno reads low so could be 240ish. Felt good.
Hopefully on the race tune should be knocking on 300KW at the rears.
Need to sort out things, but was so good to finally get it running!
Been a VERY long time in the build.
And my first time ever driving an RX7.
Running a GT35R turbo. Hopefully be safe on around 17-18PSI.
13B extend port race built engine.
Standard FD series 6 gearbox, but have just bought a full Albins Dog Box.
Running on 98 pump gas premixed, and with octane booster.
Haltech Platinum 1000 ECU and Racepak IQ3 logger dash.
Rays 18x9.5 wheels with 265 35 18 Hankook semi\'s all round.
HKS Hypermax coilovers.
Ripped out factory tank and fuel system and have fuel cell, surge talk, lift pump and 044 feed pump under floor.
1600cc secondry and 850cc primary injectors.
All work pretty much done by me in the garage over the last 2 years!
Still on factory sway bars and brakes for now.
Floor removed and lowered to fit me in!
Racetech 4009 WT seat.
Always on going. Next step is new Ex Wastegate and new FPR, as both are a bit dodgy.
Then race tune.
Then F and R sway bars.
Then Front brakes.
But it\'s going and these things can be worked on over time.
Just thought I\'d post in case anyone was interested!
Here is an in-car from yesterday. I\'ll throw a few photos after as well.
