My RX7SP build up

[classicauto]

I'm surprised to hear that you've gone away from NRS. My current engine is a series 5 stock standard, only minor casting flash removed from the intake ports. Rebuilt by myself all OEM mazda components. Great powerband, more then 2 years of abuse and road trips at 350+rwhp, 121+mph trap speeds in the 1/4, nearly 50,000kms of use......but I'm swapping in an REW that I will be using NRS seals with.

Have you changed due to some issue with the seals or to prove the durability of the OE components? From my findings the OEM items need not to be proven, but I'm moving to NRS to facilitate a longer overall lifespan of the engine at elevated power.....bad move?

The Ohlins are a beautiful street set up. Australia has fucked roads and they work well here.

No one has gone to the extent I have properly documenting OEM in this type of car at this level, as its more relevant to customers across the world I though it best to do this as it holds much more credence and is something anyone can aspire to have + it proves just how good OEM parts really are as you and I both know .

I still use the Trust re-branded NGK plugs, tested various heat ranges etc etc.

No I will post it Monday, thanks for the reminder!

No you won't you'll post it Tuesday lol. Mondays public holiday. Are the trust ones worth running in a daily? They are pretty dear aren't they? I've always run b9egv as that's what dysons told me back in the day but they can go suck a cock

I know its hard to tell over the internet but I must have run literally hundreds of different spark plug types across probably now millions of miles collective across many end users and I find it about 5 times more economic to use the ones I do now V's the EGV's

I daily drive the SP, cold starts gentle trips, pick the right heat range and they will never foul.... they last 50 times longer than EGV's too.

You have quite the nice ride. I've really enjoyed reading through your experiences with your SP. I may have missed it, but what's your fuel setup like? Injectors, pump etc? Any thoughts on Injector types at all? When you say pump-gas, you're using the top grade available (91) ?

I really like those seats!

Thanks

Fuel system is as follows

Sard 280lt pump
Sard Type RJ regulator (55psi static pressure setting)
4 x 1000cc Bosch injectors
ATL foam filled tank
Kenne Bell Boost-a-pump, full pump rewire

Fuel used
BP Ultimate or Shell V-Power < but not mandated, I have run it on lowest specification unleaded at high power setting.

I tried many types of fuel injectors, Bosch 839's, Rochester's, Denso, but finally settled on the "pencil type" Bosch units of high impedance, they seem to work well.

The seats are Don! I just came back from a 200+km drive for about 3 hours inc lunch stop, and the seats are unreal, very supportive
