Few updates:

Jynkkis started to build headers and exhaust. Its looking wild :)

Also, I have tryed to learn more and more about rotarys. Today I heard that Koiranen Bros Racing had original IMSA Rx-7 here, Tom Walkinshaw Racing build. They raced it -86-87.

I hate Opels but I have a soft spot for Asconas and Mantas ;)

Our father raced Group A Ascona in late -80 and early -90. It had very good engine at the time, unfortunatly gearboxes did broke easy...

That Green Ascona on the video, it was allready very quick car, allways at the top in that series. They rebuilded it, and it did take over 3 years.

Had more info about that Imsa RX. Someone in Denmark purchased it. They raced it few years and then it was converted to run V8... :(

Umm, Carl, what kind of overlap bro`s engine has? And where were you thinking rev limiter?

Also, can stock gearbox handle that power? Especially in high revs, will it take gears in?

Ya, he is doing good progress, even though his back is killing him. Actually, I was impressed by his welding skils. I knew that he can weld but... :)

Ya, arm was quite sore but I was very happy :)

Cant wait new additions. I´m thinking R and E to other side of my arm. Kind of "armband" or something with that tribal. Allready booked ink time and asked that tattoo artist(apprentice) to design it for me ;)

Rallycross season is coming. My friend has his car ready for a next season. Saturday is dynoday for Lada, and I´m going with my friend, just for fun. :)

Also my brother is doing good progress. I will add more pics soon.

We have been discussing about using ECU and fuel injection at some point in future. Does anyone have knowledge and or experience using Haltech on 13B PP N/A engine? Thoughts, opinions or ideas?

Ohh, we also have been thinking name for our "team". ;) Thoughts, opinions or ideas are needed here too...? ;)

I had good dyno day with my friend. Lada didnt broke and NO horses were missing, so he was happy. We even had time to try different things.

Also, learned alot about Haltech so day was good for me too :)
