RX-7 + Built LS1 + T76 = Holy Mother of God!!!! - Houston-Imports.com

nightracer · 06-02-2008, 06:06 PM

The owner lives about 15 minutes down the back roads from my parents in Ohio. He took me for a spin and I almost shit my pants. It was so fucking fast it was scary. It was kinda cool feeling it get squirrelly at 130 MPH. It'll easily be a 145 MPH car with a taller rear end and bigger tires. I got in the car and thought, hmmm I'm going to die.

Fuck yeah.

uberVduber · 06-02-2008, 09:05 PM

That's one messed up dyno plot.... does he have one that doesn't have different HP and TQ scales?

I guessing tunnel vision when he gets into the throttle....

nightracer · 06-02-2008, 09:54 PM

Yea the scenery blurs so you just look straight and hope for the best.

The second vid shows that there is way to much power for that car. I'm all for an lsX swap into an FD but I'd still like to keep the car balanced.

Hatemy7 · 06-03-2008, 10:52 AM

what kind of time did he run at the track, I am curious

Saw a vid on youtube of one sideways till 3rd let out get it straight and stil manage a 11.97@135.Not this car but similar setup unless he's painted the car

Billy_Madison · 06-03-2008, 12:29 PM

I would guess a mid to low ten maybe even single digits. The power is their just needs to fine tune the suspension and see if he can stay straight and not blow the tires off

I don't know if anybody remembers Garrets Black Rx7 with the Vortech Blown 306.That thing was stupid.The funny part was the drive shaft was about a foot long.Better have been three lanes wide when running him cause he was sideways coming past you.His Single T88 truck is the same way.

st00pid · 06-04-2008, 08:22 AM

Garret told me he was offered the RX7 back from the guy he sold it to. Oh, and his truck now has twin S366s

Thats a nice car, but he's a hopeless driver around the AX track lol....he was getting so late on all his turns, and then trying to throttle steer every turn needlessly - that might have something to do with his dyno and how steep the curve is...something that makes somuch power so suddenly needs a boost manager/throttle control such as some great SM cars used to run - with the revs constantly stuck over 3500 rpm lol. That way he's constantly making so much power, and then only way to stop is to turn off the RPMs and get on the brakes lol...

But yeah, SICK car for sure.

eN_2_Oh · 06-10-2008, 02:20 PM

oh my god that thing is GROTESQUELY fast.
