The Kosei K1's are very light for the price, but I don't think they are available anymore. Especially in the correct offset. As far as tires go the 225/45/15 size is the most ideal, but going to a...

Since it hasn't been mentioned, if your car is configured the way the pictures show it the hood it considered illegal. Only Non turbo parts can be used, the TII hood would be out. :)
I had a customer a while back in a third gen RX-7 that had a mild accident and the tranny got stuck in reverse. IIRC it was related to the shifts rods getting out of sequence. It only took removing...
Hate double post but I wanted to let you guys know that I have to sell the car.

Jason,
You can find some interesting stuff on build ups on these pages:

Too late. I ordered the ones from Flatout and they just arrived today. :)
Thanks for the offer anyway.
Thanks guys, the Flatout ones look reasonable. I'll buzz them this week.
Since ISC isn't carrying RX-7 parts anymore, does anyone know of a source for Front Brake backing plates for forced airflow to the hub/rotor?
I could use set and not keen on building them myself....
Just for a data point, I run Blue front/Black rear sans bias adjustment. I never had lock up issues and I thought the wear was quite reasonable. I might just be easy on brakes.
Haven't gotten...
I figured as much. That is why I was thinking about just parting it out. We'll see what I can come up with.
I have considered that. Other than the classified section here, any recommendations on where to post a sale ad?
Craigslist?
Ebay?

Hey guys,
Due to reasons out of my control (loss of employment:)) I have to consider selling the race car. It's a 91 chassis RX-7 built to full ITS spec. I have been running it since 2000. I...
Mazda did have a TSB way back when. Basically at the front of the shift rod housing, you cut the seal flush with the end of the forward end of the tube. This way the oil can drain back to the main...
The ideal offset is +27mm. I managed to get a couple of sets of Kosei's in that offset. I wish I had a couple of spares.... :(
I see that MidOhio is holding one of their Competition Courses June 1st. I was wondering if anyone had attended this course before? Does anyone plan on going? I am thinking pretty hard about it,...
Just for a point of reference, when I first put the car together 5 years ago, I bought new Mazda rear calipers, rebuilt the fronts, new Mazda master cylinder, Hawk blue fronts, Black rears, Earl's...
Strangely enough I had the opposite reaction to the Dynojet vs. Mustang debate. Initially I went to a Mustnag dyno facility here in Indy anfd on my first pull it read 192HP. :rolleyes:
Without...
The same procedure is used on check a clutch type diff on a Miata. If it is less than 30#'s then the diff should be "refreshed".
Bill that was some fatastic footage. That was more interesting that any NASCRAP I have managed to have been subjected to. Very clean racing though the yellow incident was strange. Glad to see the...
Steve I believe this is an urban legend. I have looked at the timing gear. Flipped it both ways and the teeth line up the exact same way.
Thanks datadue,
BTW, could you refresh my memory as to how they come up with the speed stat?

Scott,
I will be getting there Friday afternoon and since I park by TruChoice as well I can help you setup your canopy, even if you are an ITA driver :D I'll be with the black ITS RX-7 #73,...
Thanks for the comments here Bob. It was good to get a stewards perspective.
I have opted not to comment further on the subject because I know no good will come of it. :rolleyes:
I feel bad deciding to post 7 pages into this thread.
Anyway, here are some of my thoughts whatever they might be worth (nothing at the least) :)
I would like to be able to drive at a Runoffs...
Unfortunately no. I have other items to attend to on the car before VIR (MazdaDrivers) this coming weekend. If I get lucky I might get to the dyno before MidO. If nothing else I will get HP and...
