Hi all new to the forum.
Looking for a fd build in bristol area. Im in clevedon and just really want to watch or even help get involved in a build.
Im a 25yr old guy from New Zealand just wanting to learn.
Personally trying to learn those little tricks in rebuilding rx7s. In particular would love to see/ be involved start to finish on a bridgeport/ half bridge, single turbo conversion someone looking 400-500hp as thats what i would like to do? However any rebuild would be great!
Hopefully can also meet a few like minded people too?
I work part time at a local garage, so far from complete mechanical novice. Know the theory on rotaries, i own an rx8. Just havnt worked on one and as we all know theory and practice are massive difference. I probably could do it myself just would like to see it all first to give me the confidence and discuss what parts your using and why?
So anyone doing a build soon and wouldnt mind helping out a young lad get involved please get in touch!
