its cost efficient when the stock twins keep going bad. Helghast advised me on this. I may just pick up his car when the time comes if its still around. painting CW or Metropolitan gray mica OR millenium jade mica, i havnt seen a rx7 in that color before. (its the r34 color varient)




Whats done is done with the springs, i just wanted to be ready for sunday.

as for the wheel widths, it depends if i stay on stock body or go with feed fenders, im on the fence about it. some days i really want it and other days i dont.



anyway.. any chance for a caravan on sunday? I know some of you said you were coming.

New stock twins that are kept under 12lbs of boost will not just go bad. I think the problem is that you won't keep it at that level. New twins will also cost you an arm and a leg. Used turbos will always bust earlier than you want. IMO, the cheapest way to make an FD reliable is to...

-Source a reputable motor that was just rebuilt
-New turbos
-Refresh everything in the engine bay
-Reliability mods
-Upgrade IC
-Water injection (ultimate reliability)
-Get that reliable tune

This is not the best bang for the buck though as this is still pretty pricey and your power ceiling is extremely low but if you keep that setup and keep boost at stock or slightly higher than stock levels, this setup will last a very long time.

hahha listening to dave was your first mistake his cars not even running just messing dave we all know its not running because u have your bike fetish and forgot your roots.

1 its not as simple as just buying a skyline........... theres much more to it and thats why u dont see them around

2. before you make all these big plans for the 7 you dont own, you need to own it first. drive it around, you will find out what things are broken, on its way to be broken and things that needed replacement yaers ago. its nothing like the 8 where u want something and boom buy it. with the 7 you buy somethign and then say **** i shouldnt have spent the moeny on x when y broke right as i spend the money for x. now uve just tackled on the typical im goign to "restoreeverythingwhilemycarsitsinthegarageandinev erdriveit" phase.

you remind me of myself when i was your age,a lot to learn, a lot to learn.

idk what yore refering to but breaking 300 on a 7 is like peeing into the toilet. its easy and doesnt take much effort.

Please stop responding to me benny. Im sick of sitting back as you continually bash my efforts to learn. And unfortunately you are the reason i do not attend meets. As for the others i thank you for your continual support and feedback when i have questions. Yes, this isnt the "EricB advice thread", nor do i want it to be, but you have also ruined this thread for me as well and i hate using it. Thankyou.

As for the others, let me know if there will be a caravan to njmp this sunday for the grand am race in Millville NJ. If we dont see eachother ill stay on the lookout for youre cars and introduce myself. Though i still am on the fence about going.

did i just make the burn book? im sick of listening to your spoiled *** comments but i still entertained you even tho all the questions youve ask could be found on 7club. you dont own a 7, you talk about your mom selling the house then buying you one and then he buying you all these mods. i dont think anyone cares to hear how spoiled you are. YES if you met me you would know IIII am spoiled as ****, but i dont go broadcasting it to strangers how mommys gonna buy me x y and z. you make outrageous claims about modding a 7 (once again that you dont own), lets face it, youve never really modded a car, we've all warned you what happens when you mod a 7, youre ignorant to listen to all the advice people are giving you. my last post said it all, you remind me of me when i was 18, naive and didnt really know anything about modding a car. i was giving you real world advice, sorry you couldnt handle it.

no worries i will not respond to anymore of your redundant post, im prettttty good a ignoring people so no worries if you ever come to a meet, we wont have any contact, feel free to come tho, all my friends are A LOT nicer than me.

ps im in florida so no worries about bumping into me on sunday


PSS for all you with the popcorn *AHEM preston* yes i have just became that *******.

lmao! oh man this is some craziness

good one ben lol but yea i could probably fix my car pretty quickly if i felt like it, just not in the mood/ scheming a bit

but honestly like whats said, you guys really shouldnt worry so much about what ur planning on doing to the car until you actually have one, just worry about that everything else will fall into place:

"nice just picked up my FD next week im gonna get coilovers"

next week
"**** my trans blew and i hear a funny noise coming from the engine bay

2 years later
"ok this week im getting coilovers"

lmao!

and damn ben 94/hr? im doing something wrong

speaking of bbqs, my END OF THE WORLD bday is coming up again this year and im thinking of throwing another bbq soon

so if anyones interested, let me no and kinda give me a feel on which weekend is best? obviously i cant make everyone happy, but im just trying to find a day that will work for most people
