Got a few pics of the Mk1 sorted, I\'ll try and sort aout a few more if the weather ever improves!
another
rear side 1/4:
Nice, what is it? another LHD? where\'s its wing?
its a 1981 rhd mk1 ( ie the very first RX7 shape) the wing appeared on the mk2, yours is a mk3
very nice, looks like you got a bargain. Is it solid in all the usual rust traps ?
as with most cars the very 1st Marque is usually the cleanest looking, although I don\'t think that true of the 3rd gen, Mazda did an amazing job on the 99+ revistion.
Very nice,
Carl has a nice S3 now and I just have a tatty one and a rusty one. Phooey
reasonably solid, rear left arch needs some attention otherwise not too bad
Hmmm, the Mk1s are so much nicer :)
Should get my one going again...
reminds me, I found some incredibly cheap holley pattern TBs the other day. Whilst the 4-bbl is not my first choice for an inlet it would look almost stock whilst having all the benefits of fuel injection. I must email keith and find out how much his manifolds are.
Hey bill, havnt seen you around these parts for a while. Guess you have been busy. Kinda missed your efi info.
Back to topic...I did see a guy(called stretch, in oz) along time ago running one of the four barrel style throttle bodies on a supercharged orange, (I think) rx2 coupe. Cant remember how fast it was bit it looked a very nice set up. The guy now build engines in sydney somewhere, I did see him mentioned a while back on the ausrotary forum. Real nice guy, very forthcoming with help and info.
Got fed up with a few luddites, narcissists and bent moderators on this forum so decided to jack it in for a few months. Just back whilst on hols then I\'ll probably vanish again. Mind you fewer moderators now so I might hang around.
I would like to get more 1st gens and old skool stuff on EFI, if only so i can get rid of some of my manifold museum
Just found a GT32 really cheap. Not good for a serious power machine, but would make a 12A into a very nice little sleeper plant.
Well Bill, I cant comment on half of that, not really my place to. But have to say that this forum does seem to be a bit easier to post stuff on sometimes compared to the aussie one that can gt a bit clogged up with 14 year olds without a clue.
GT32? I am guessing its a turbo.
What kind of manifolds do you have kicking around? anything interesting for a 12a? pm me if you have time so that we dont hijack this already good thread.
(sorry sadgoth):wave
Still think a 1st gen looks naked without a wing on the back.
By the way Michael, had some great cheese from the Isle of Mull this Christmas. Jolly well done for living there.
Hey Don, i used to work at the isle of mull cheese farm. Even made the cheese for a few months before going on to cow chasing duties!
Wow! No sh*t? What a great job. Got to be one of the best mature cheeses I ever had.
Maximum Kudos to you my freind!
