[shaunwil]

Is it still that when its warmed up. Mines always been about 1500 rpm cold and 1000 warm. It usually settles down once warm.

Mikey,

Mine warms up for a good 3 minutes at 1200-1500 then drops the revs to 700-800. Once fully warm it ticks over at around 500.

Sounds okay but mine is completely standard as long as you don\'t count the broken airbox and the seized brakes - i know i love my car for a reason but there are brief moments when i forget what it is!

Calipers ordered and on their way from Clive at SHY (a very very nice man)
Will let you know when they arrive and i definitelt owe you a beer (or whatever)

oh ive been here , just not had much time for posting my usual amount of rubbish/crap on here, work seems to get in the way!! :Grrr

I may have to take a run down to edinburgh one time then if you dont mind doing the odd job now and again as I dont get mechincal stuff.. rats nest? what the devil is that, ive seen a few people write about that but not had a chance to go and look it up!? ( WOMEN, EH!:Giggle ) I justlike driving my car and washing it.. lol.

Hope things are good with you ?

[mikeyh]

lol you shoudl check out the rats nest is fun pmsl
all those little tubes and wires everywhere

im good thanks and yeah feel free to come over im sure i can show you around the car(no kinky thoughts pls)lol
ive got merlyn coming in soon as well for 2 new front calipers and pads.
just did a service on it and i even tried to ler him take a plug out but hey he`s a surgen not a mechanic pmsl(sorry m8 u were bloody slow)

[666FLO]

hmm I dont think I should go ANYWHERE near the rats nest or any other engine related part, It will only end in the engine falling out of my car or some sort of  mass mess..  I may pop down sometime after the new year then? but dont let me or encourage me 2 touch ANYTHING.. the less I know the better for the car. :Laugh

[D1 WTF]

666flo are you still running twin turbos?

[666FLO]

ooo I know the answer to this one. Yes i am. .

[D1 WTF]

lol, just checking.  because if you were running a single turbo you would no longer have any of the rats nest as it is just vacum pipes etc for the twin turbos.

you have quite a good power figure for twin turbos (280rwhp @ 0.8bar) so i thought you might be single.

[666FLO]

ah i see. i presume having a single turbo is better then ?

I have been trying to set-up for rotary engine business about 10+yrs ago and still want to do it!, but it\'s not worth it as Rotary engine is a joke in Scotland!!  and I never went down south for a tune-up,etcc.lucky me!
All RX7 models\'s mechincal is the same!!, using your common scene.
