Show Me Your Racing Machines

[screamin']

Well the car that started this thread has developed a bit over the last couple of years.

Now sports an RB20DE with ITB's, cams, headwork etc. Think there is a pic in here somewhere...

It's had a couple of arguements with a total of 8 fence posts (7 at one time) which of course leads to upgrades.

With suspension mods, and a bit of tuning the car has become surprisingly competative, scoring a few 1st in class (1600 - 2000cc) and a 1st 2wd in a 3.5km hillclimb. I'm stoaked to be running an unorthadox car and beating some of the pure bread 2wd rallycars.

Here's a pic and vids from the other weekend. 10km forestry sprint. Day started at -5°C, parts of the road were permanantly frozen all day, tricky...

good shit troy! that will be awesome fun, and the sound. my god man! the sound!

where did you find that bad boy? auction? yahoo? or is there some japanese my105 I don't know about?!

yeah there quite hard to come by....i bought one about 3 years ago for my mate and he ended up getting one from somewhere else....one had the same setup as mine and the other had a sr20 turbo in it.....im building up a 13BPP concrete cracker for it and will be making some body mods to look more like this ......

I have seen and heard 787B in japan when they wheel out the old cars at meets and they look and sounds just amazing. love it.

[phunky_monkey]

I have never heard a better sounding car in my life, absolutley unreal. Would love to hear it in person one day

Speaking of mental rotors that I would love to own, check this out: www.osca.co.nz/20build.htm

If it ain't a wotor, den it ain't a motor

lol, my RX7 gets parked on the 3rd basement level down from ground. when it's idling on the timer and I hop in the lift to go up to my apartment I can hear it running all the way up to the top floor and from the lift to my front door! neighbours must loooove it.

and it's a turbo so is pretty quiet by rotor standards...

[phunky_monkey]

Haha but you have to love it!

I had a 12A PP once upon a time, and that thing was so rude it's not funny. It idled a bit under 2000rpm and sounded magic, absolutley awesome little engine. BRAAAAP BRAAAAP BRRRRRAAAAAAAAAP

[zebra]

my neighbours used to hate my old rx7 and that was just a stock 12a with a big exhaust and a racing beat air cleaner, it had no guts and i lived on a hill so it was 1st gear all the way up lol....then it did the ole' rotary back fire when I shut it down

[phunky_monkey]

Haha I used to park my old 550hp 13BT Series 2 out the front of my neighbours house, and they told me it used to shake their windows when I started it up. I bet they were glad when it was stolen!

That is currently for sale ,aking good money from what i recall.

As much as i love my Skylines, if i could own any track car, i mean realistic so no Ultima GTR or F1 GTR i would have to take the Re Amiya Super G RX7.

It would have to be track only as no way i cold drive such an outrageous car on the street

[evil_weevil]

You park your rx7 in a communal garage Richard?

thats keen...I wouldnt want to leave that around!

my neighbours loved the day I moved out from mum n dads...being in a battle-axe block...our driveway went between two houses, so first car was a loud LS1.....then the R33....and having 6am starts on a weekday and 4am starts on a weekend...yeah they didnt like me much

[phunky_monkey]

It is indeed Troy, 120k...

Love the RE cars, so nice!

I think I'd take the Panspeed one though... tough one though

[zebra]

I'd better leave this thread or i'll buy another rx7 lol

[evil_weevil]

if I keep reading I'll be tempted to put a 13bt in my mx5 lol

[zebra]

if I keep reading I'll be tempted to put a 26bt in my mx5 lol

Fixed

[phunky_monkey]

if I keep reading I'll be tempted to put a 13bt in my mx5 lol

Winning combo me thinks

There is a neat Super G RX7 for sale in UK at the moment, complete with T88, at a reasonable price too. Only its a silly rotary, if anyone can guarantee it will put up with a day of laps at the Ring and two days at Spa then i will buy it in a heartbeat

[zebra]

if it goes bangs than just drop an Rb20 in it...complete with T88
