Couple shots of the new car..

Post by kalifornia087 »

The car is dirty as shit right now...

I'll get some more pics when i wash/wax and get some matching wheels on it (picked up a nail on the stockers in the rear so atm im rockin' 16x8 n/a supra wheels out back)

Boost is nice... (haven't had it since i sold my turbo coupe Tbird)..
And this car hauls ass.
I need a radiator before drift events though...

Yeah... Takes about 3500 rpm to spool but when it does.. Pulls haaaaaaaard... I love this car. Feels good to be back in an Rx7.

Suspension is kind of sloppy but no worse than my GTU was. That stuff is in the works though.

Coming to an event near you in the next couple months... Need a big radiator, getting a surge tank, and a little suspension work (nothing major yet just getting it back to feeling solid as far as stock stuff).

So happy to have a car again.

This car is silly fast!! Since he didn't put it I'll say it made 331 whp on 14psi untuned, and it's running silly rich according to the wideband and the huge fireballs it shoots :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: . I can't wait to see Austin out there in a capable car once he gets coilovers and a few other things for it, cause seeing what he was capable of in a stock car I can only imagine what he's going to bring to the table in something thats ready to go.

Thanks for the kind words good sir. :wink:
Yeah Zach felt the power of the Terminator II.
And yeah i need to get it tuned, but it laid down above stated power in its current form. The motor will handle more boost but i won't be giving it any more. But with management and a tune... It should make much more power up top... This will all come after things like a radiator, suspension wheels and tires... But one day!
And yes it Spits Hot Fiyah!! :twisted: And lots of it lol.
