AWESOME!!!
PICS PICS PICS - hanging to see some!

Posting pics. up for RX3ROTOR
And another...
Ok, I have a spare 20B to donate; who\'s got a 3 Coupe that needs a good home over here? ;)
RX3ROTOR - do you have any details of the Supra box? I\'ve been thinking about this for my (20B) FD. Any ideas how it compares to the FC/FD box as far as dimensions/weight are concerned?? Did you consider the 6 spd?
R.
Piss - forgot to say - AWESOME motor bud!!
Has it been in 4\'s or Zoom or any thing? Dont recall having seen it...
R.
ohhhhhhhh I like
Dammit now I want that LHD RX4 Coupe even more
thanks for that 4rotor..i owe you one....keep up the good work..cheers
20b boy..i would get the 6 speed supra box if possible as they are the strongest by far...broken a few 5 speeds also...the s6 box es are on par with supra turbo 5 speeds in strenght wise and weight etc....and its been in fast fours mags...poster books and in 2002 was top 10 car of the year awards also...but it had my weld racing drag wheels on it back then..cheers
i like very much.. its got a real mean stance, wickid
Reminds me a bit of YLD 20B. Except YLD is a sedan. Gimme a coupe any day :D
Got any engine bay pics? What turbo you run mate? Most of the big kw rotors in aus (that appear in FF and Zoom any way) seem to be running the old TA45 or 51s; the housings on those things are HUGE! :D
Sweet motor, make sure you advertise on MRC.com if u ever \'want\' sell her ;)

20b boy...it has an garret ta45 ball bearing turbo with big wheels etc in it...but the exhaust housing is still an to4 garret housing machine out..used smaller so no lag and has heaps of torque also...cheers..i have plenty of engine bay shots but dont know how to post them...
RX3, mail them to me and I\'ll get them up for you.
Dan
dan..theres plenty of pics on ausrotary forum from 2003 jamboree..you can transfer over for me..dont know how.....and on weekend i ran 10.11@137mph on best run..with no 4th gear workingon any passes...9,s were on the cards every pass if it shifted properly...hopefully soon...cheers:cool :wave :)
just letting you guys know i ran 2 weeks ago at track a new pb of 10.06@140mph in rx3...with an 1.48 60 foot ...hopefully a 9 second pass next time out ..cheers:wave :D :p
Cant remember the times, but theres a blue coup in the news section of FF\'s this month, I was gonna ask if it was yours...think it *may* have just dipped into the 9\'s though so may not. Will check later...

I have been around Drag Racing of and on for many years and l must say the run where you got outa shape mid track was one of the most entertaining runs l have ever seen:D :D :D :D :D ( that must av got your attention )
Sadly we are way behind you at the moment
http://www.mazdarotaryclub.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=66
But we are starting to have people build some better cars as we speak in preparation for our Mazdarotaryclub meeting called Rotorstock (//www.RotorStock.com )
And lastly huge congratulations on the time you ran, and it\'s good to see you have modified your signature.
I feel like a bit of a Richard Cranuim at the moment.
I saw this RX3 post, and figured just another Aussie or Kiwi who has a BP or PP thing. Whoopee do...
Hence, you might now understand why I feel the way I do.
RX3Rotor, fantastic work. It looks nice, sounds nice and goes, well, after that run I saw, maybe goes nice sometimes?
And please change your sig some time in the near future. Something with an 8 or even 7 in it would be good. ;)

There is a 4 rotor RX-7 in NZ with PP ports which runs in the 10\'s over the 1/4 - totally n/a - who needs a turbo? :D

Hi Hayden,
I have talked to Brice about his car and it really is excellent what he has done.There is a vid link somewhere on this site to him doing a run up the strip,it sounds beautiful.
He built the engine himself.
Kind regards
Carl
