DGRR 2017 - 13b

estevan62274 · 03-29-2017, 04:19 PM

Speaking of who's coming..... I can't wait to check out that SLC 3rotor

djmtsu · 03-30-2017, 09:22 AM

Guys, spread the word.

I am selling a MINT 12A. It is broken down, but complete, including Apex seals that are very much resuable. This engine came in my white Cosmo, and was installed by Mazda at some point in time. I removed it to swap a 13B back in, and broke it down to check the condition. It is amazing inside.

I have a FS thread on the DGRR Facebook page with pics. I can bring it to DGRR, and prefer not to ship.

Been quite around here... everyone must be getting the rotaries ready

djmtsu · 04-12-2017, 12:30 PM

Put a different engine in the Cosmo this past Monday, due to sudden oil pressure issues.

This car hates me.

Naaa I gave up... MR2 it is this year...

I normally don't post here, I just usually troll the DGRR and Tennessee threads. My daughter and I attended the event last year and it was our first time. The Middle Tennessee club took us in and were most enjoyable to be around and am looking forward to seeing them again. I tried to post a couple of pics to show where I'm at currently but haven't figured out how to yet... anyway as it stands today, my daughter's car is still in the body shop and I just received her engine from BHR. I was able to put the engine on the stand after work so I will begin the reassembly process tomorrow or Friday. I see Redd bailed, but I'm going to continue to fight until the 25th if that's what it requires. I personally am super excited about the challenge in front of me, it makes me feel like part of the rotary family...stress and all.

Get it done Lance!!!!

Looking forward to seeing you guys again!

reddozen · 04-13-2017, 08:26 AM

Yea, I changed direction last minute on my body kit, and my body guy had a death in his family, so that lost a weekend. It happens. It'll look good when it's done.

estevan62274 · 04-13-2017, 09:37 AM

I'm still plugging away with the 4, hope to button up the lose ends and first start it up this weekend.
Then street tune and finish some little detail items.

I'm cutting it close

Well I guess since I've been commanded by DJ I don't have a choice
