Quote from: jonny116;553207Am not impressed with the way Jeurgen\'s old car has turned out like!! Damage on it everywhere, wheels, bumpers, lights, bonnett, eveything has been bodged, the lad has even got it limited to 4,000revs!! I mean whats the point in owning it if can never open it up, i bet its jam packed of carbon!!
 
Rattles are in the top of the passenger door, have tighned every screw, even the one behind window switch but still rattles to death at 900revs at lights. Other one is a plasticy buzz coming from behind me, think its possibly the boot.
 
Which is your RX neil?
 
Ill stick a post up when I know dates n see if anyone is interested

 
Limited a T88 to 4k rpm!!!! is that even getting into boost??
 
Mine the white stocker see the post above as took some pics at St Mary\'s this morning.
 
Im always up for a mini meet, obviously work pending, but as steven said a few of the NE Rx team are in the middle of rebuild\'s.

Dosent the boost come on them at about 2.5 or so? I cant imagine it\'s very good for it, might as well have stock.  Looks class apart from all the cracks n scrapes that he\'s not kept knick of.  Each to their own I suppose.  
 
Well will see how it goes upto the next JNE, would be good to see a good few RX\'s parked up!!  A rare sight!!

IIRC, An engine would require some pretty monster porting to spool a T88 at just 2.5k rpm...

Pretty sure they start building boost around 3.5k looking to achieve full boosh for around 5k+ iirc

yeah jurgens old rx7, what a shame! i was speaking to him at the last jne meet (not jurgen but gavin) and he said he is jsut going to keep it untill the engine go\'s then he is gettin rid!
 
as neil said i think it starts to boost around 3.5k and its limited to 5k as he is scared you can hear them on this vid say that they arnt ready fort it when he "puts his foot down" and you can hear it bounce of the limiter!
