For right now intrax springs with kyb gr-2 shocks. No wheel spacers in the rear and 1/4" up front.Yeah thats true, it is defintely becoming that way.I like them too, but a bunch of people are starting to do them, i've had them on for about 5 years now so its time for something...
They were originaly 2592x1944 but i did resize one down for the calendar contest. I'm assuming thats what you ment, thanks for the compliments!Thanks to those who did the chops also!
How small is that earls filter? My sx filter fit perfectly where the stock filter was:Also just realized you have a 2g so i'm guessing its in a different place.Did you use teflon tape or past when putting your fuel lines back on. Any comments on that. I have my fuel lines just...
I'm sure its as reliable as any other rotary. Its a hard swap, not a bolt in, thats why you dont see many. And its expensive. Did you go to the rx7 forum yet?
I went with the dual springs from fp to go along with the fp3's. They are a nice set. I've also heard of people running the supertech springs w/o issue so far.
Its the motor out of the late model camaro's and firebirds.Click here. You get the handling and weight of the rx-7 but eliminate all the reliability problems with the rotary motor.
I run a 225 tire with 1/8" of spacing and the front stick out just a little, not real noticable unless you look down on the wheel from above it. I would imagine with a 245 and 15mm it would be a little more noticable.Now on the rear, I dont run any spacers and it fits perfectly, doesn't...
About 4 years. Its only bottomed out on big holes, ones that I would expect all to bottom out on.I dont autox and I wanted it to be low, these handled better than stock so I'm happy. I can see that they sit lower than other springs. I only run 16's and it sits perfectly.
I've had no problems with the Intrax springs on my car (Pa roads suck too). But i guess I'm one of the few and didn't realize that people don't like them. But I only did it because I was on a college budget. I'll be shopping for coil-over's soon.
Thanks for the info spdyer, thats something I didn't even know. I've had mine on for about 3 years now and everyday I see more and more people using them, so its good info for those interested. Do you now have them on your car, I haven't seen any pics with them on 2g's.Thanks for the props...
Mine are off of a 93 and i've had no problem with cracks of any kind. I don't remember but i'll have to check to see what casting they are (i'm thinking lighter casting).Also if you haven't put them on your car yet you will probably need some kind of spacer for the front.
Cams but you dont have to go with hks's. Everybody things hks's are magical. You can spend 150 less on a set of fp2's (made by comp) and make as much power. And have some cash left over.
To the original poster (if you're still here), I have a 14b that isn't blown. If you're interested until you get money for injectors (if you choose to go bigger).Hey batty dont you have a motor on an engine stand to be working on, and not arguing on forums. ;)
I was on the phone with them this past friday and they said ugpraded springs ARE needed for the fp3's. I can't speak for other cams out there. This was straight from fp.
Need some help on deciding on a wastegate configuration, Internal or external (off manifold). Right now i'm not setup for an external setup so I would have to get the manifold and wastegate etc. Is there any reason with this turbo that I should go with an external wastegate like a tial 38mm or...
Was any machine work need for those springs and retainers. I got off the phone with fp and they have a set of duel springs and retainers that they say won't need machine work. I'm guessing these just became available since they aren't on the site yet.
Anybody know for sure if upgraded valvetrain is needed for the fp3 cams in a stroker 2.3 application. I won't be reving as high as you 2.0 guys. Been trying to get a hold of fp but they haven't returned messages yet. Thanks.
I recently reclocated my battery to the trunk and I have the wire run and all but I couldn't find a decent junction block for under the hood. Those who have done it what junction block did you use, and if you have a link to it. I'd like to keep it hidden well if possible. Thanks. :thumb...
Correct me if i'm wrong but on a 1g awd, after the cat its straight back, it goes under the rear axles. On a 1g fwd (like mine) it goes up over the rear axle, it has a lot more bends.Keith
Exactly, I hope the wrx doesn't sound like your 1g.Its mica yellow, not blaze (not trying to be a dick). You were dead on with the 450, and that was in 93 only.Keith
Atleast 400+. My head should be back from the machine shop soon. I'm just getting a valve job done. I'll be running hks 272's with a goal of about 375-400hp.Keith
When i replaced my ball joints i removed both of the A arms and I pressed the ball joints out. But I have a press. The new ones will need to be pressed back in. I think you will have a lot of trouble leaving them on the car and trying to pound them out. I never replaced my wheel bearings so...
What kind of engine management are you using. I'm going to be running a similar setup when my car is done. I just haven't decided on engine management yet. Keep posting.Keith
