Glad to see someone else putting theirs back on the road, I took mine out from under the car cover and pushed it into the garage for the first time in 8 months, I might actually have this thing running soon. I still havent decided on the power plant though.

Yeah, glad to hear your getting to work on yours Dave...please man stay rotary...

just a couple of picture to share of parts boring but i thought i would share.

My new clutch flywheel set up, My motec and the exhuast ports I did, and they should flow 225-275 cfm I am going to flow them soon.

[glenrx7]

More work done...Hope you all want to see this stuff??:001_005:

[David Jerome]

On the exhaust port, it looks like you only opened it just a touch earlier than factory? Is this correct, am I seeing the picture correctly. I am building my motor later in the week and since I am deciding to stay stock twins at the moment I am deciding to do extremely conservative porting for I usually do on the rebuilds I sell.

The template I use for standard porting is basically the same as Gotham's Large street port. I decided to keep the exhaust port very close to factory with just a few minor adjustments as I feel the factory Peripheral exhaust port should flow plenty for my goals.

Everything looks good.

[sk8world]

Yeah, but looks like he went wider... Should be plenty.. I have one good housing with a racing beat exhaust port and trying to decide if I like it enough to match one of my others to it or go with a more square cut style? Here is a pic of one similar but not mine..

That picture you posted is basically the same is my standard exhaust port. FWIW I just had a customer make 399rwhp on 7lbs with a 72 or 74 mm turbo and that was with ignition break up, up top. His motor has Landers standard intake port template which like I said earlier is large compared to what most shops do. Hopefully he will post more numbers soon once he gets everything sorted out. Enough hijacking this thread for now :)

[glenrx7]

Dont let that picture confuse you this is a pretty big port, the goal here is to have little over lap, but it is pretty big compared to a stock port. We will see what the flow bench says.....

Are you looking at the scribed line or the little that was already cleaned off in the pic.? I have not scene too many shops/ port guys that go as deep or like it that way. Seems most now like the more square cut design. But like he said the flow bench says most! 399 at 7 psi is sick!

[David Jerome]

I was looking at the scribed line :) We dont like to do a lot of overlap. Just preference, still I believe the stock port is more than MOST people really NEED. :)

[sk8world]

Your thoughts Glen?

[Flyrx7]

Love the Blitz wheels! Type 03's, right?

Trade you my SSR Integrals :)

This car ever get finished?

[RCCAZ 1]

Hey I know that Glen has a lot of work in the shop right now, however he is still dedicating some time to his project. He and Tom just helped me get mine running again, plus he has many others vying for his time, so to answer your question.... no, not yet, but progress is still being made ;)

[spr258]

I was just talking to Glen and when he was building my car he got a lot of motivation to finish his. My car turned out about how he wants his car to be plus about another 200 hp and just a little more money......? I know he was working on his battery relocation a couple of weeks ago. I hope he gets his car done soon so when I move back to Tucson we can hangout and cruise in the FDs. GLEN you better get working on your car, forget about the shop, you dont really work much/hard there anyways!!!!!

Hey all....Mike saw that 617 nice man ...

Yeah few things have gotten done, I need to find some time to get my engine done. I also need my re amemiya cat back to sell to fund my ignition set up...Autronics 500r:) I am hoping to have it done for seven stock atleast breaking it in then.

I think we are racing to see who can possibly take the longest to get their car on the road. Glad to hear you are staying busy with work, if all goes well I plan to drive to sevenstock this year :)

Im pretty sure that glen has beaten that already. I think his car has been down for over 4 years but i cant remember....

[REVIT93RX7]

Yeah but mine has been off the road for 5 years and probably will not be on the road til the end of 2010. But these cars are too nice to give up on.

[David Jerome]

Glen and I keep everyone else's rotaries on the road though :)

[spr258]

Kept mine on the road and still took a year to build. I gave them that much time though so they could do a quality build. Great engine builder. At least they have Toms car on the road....

[glenrx7]
