Well that's what i named him, yeah my car is a him. When i was going to buy the car most of my friends and family told me not to. So why not name it after a luck dragon. Anyways here's what it's gone through so far.

I bought it in April of 05 and my aim was for 400hp by 2011. It is now 2011 and i'm close (I think) but not quite there.

Since heat is the enemy double so in a rotary i heat insulated the underside of the UIM. As things go for time consumption Polishing is #1 this takes a close 2nd.

Clean the ever living snot out of the UIM get every last piece of grease i can possibly scrub off of it

And my aluminum door handles came in. The FD's stock plastic door handles suck big floppy donkey dick. Over time they'll warp or break. My driver side handle is warped and wont push the pin far enough down to open the door.

Ended up changing the fuel system around. I was told hooking the feed up to the secondary rail was better so that's the way i went. If you have any suggestions let me know.

So i first tried to put the novel in the black coupler i had only problem is it's to thick and i couldn't thread on the backing to seal the coupler
http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b3...ar/meth004.jpg
So i had to use an old blue coupler i had that's a bit smaller i'm sure it will work right but i need to find something else. You can see the silver washer looking thing on the blue i couldn't get that piece on the black coupler

Main power and main ground just left to run and a retune yaaa

Force13b 02-10-2011 03:44 PM

My first Dyno season was fun but my car was being a POS. First off i drove all the way to Palm springs on 1 rotor. Yeah i screwed up some wiring on my coils so 1 rotor was not working. Lets just say it was 1 of the most painful drives i have ever made. I felt like a Top Gear presenter, you know when they screw up and cars are all backed up behind them. Yeah that was me Laughing

I made it to my buddy's house at like 11:45 we got the coil issue figured out by like 130 ish and did some street tuning. During our street tune i'm sitting passenger seat. Glenn's (my friend) is doing like 100 and i see a little bunny come bounding out of the desert. I calmly say "Bunny" it runs out and runs smack into the side of my car :lol: Glenn barely swerved which i thanked him for, plow that stupid bunny don't spin us out into the desert at 100mph. I start laughing my ass off we go down and come back doing another pull and the bunny was gone. The fucker lived after running smack into the side of my car. We didn't get done tell like 3:00am. I woke up at like 530am and couldn't go back to sleep. We ended up leaving for the Dyno at like 730.

Dyno session didn't pan out though my car was being a little bitch. The ECU kept disconnecting from the laptop as soon as they started going. It was pulling hard friday night when we were street tuning it. I'm really not sure what's wrong with it. Here is the best video of my car from Saturday.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xnP0cQ_jKDI
FIRE :lol:

We tried for about an hour and a half to get it to act like it's suppose to and it never did. The best pull i got was a 203hp at 6k rpm's Crying or Very sad The dyno graph was very sergey and all over the place. Hopefully i'll have it figured out by next month and do another dyno season.

Finally got a trans cover. My car had been missing it since i bought it found it on ebay for 20$
http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b3...r/IMAG0050.jpg

Also did some work on the interior lights. For some reason Mazda thought black was a good color for reflecting light inside the car. So i took them apart and painted them and put in an LED bulb holly crap it's like day time in my car now.
