project rexy

[ij1889]

Clutch is almost done, I am also installing a short shifter, all should be done by tomorrow, I also am thinking a lsd and caliper brakes to the rear

 

[dmention7]

I think an LSD is good idea, but I'd recommend a full-on detroit locker to harness all that torque.

One thing left? http://www.corvettemuseum.com/images/2002/ls6-top.jpg

 

[ij1889]

Sure aj, you sponsor(give me money) and ill do a ls swap

 

[ij1889]

i will be picking up a street ported engine from wisconsin the 19th and getting a electrical fan and getting rid of my clutch fan, so that it wont sound like a "truck" as nate once said, and give me a tad bit of horse power

 

[FunK73]

More like almost double it! So looking forward to the install/road trip. I still dont think you should pull it apart though, since theres no real reason to.

 

[ij1889]

no i dont think its going to get louder, but she will sound different with a more defined brap sound to her

 

[Banzai]

Did you get you engine?

 

[FunK73]

Yes, not the on in Wisconsin though. We bought one closer for a lot less money that needs to be rebuilt

Sounds like you are having fun I am hoping for about 200rwhp with my project.

btw where is rx7 heaven?

 

[Banzai]

If you have to rebuild it, start a thread about it, take some before /after and step by step pictures. I'm sure the strokers on here might interested in seeing what makes the whirling rotors brap!

 

[FunK73]

im shooting for 200-250 hp, i think it would be epic on a car that will weight just a tad over 1900lbs(kinda going the lotus way, an elise)

rx7 heaven is up in ramsey, here is the phone7637532981

i gotta warn you, tony(owner) is kinda moody, catch him on a good day, hes fucking great, catch him in a bad day, hes a prick, but the only guy i trust in minnesota with my 12a
