Shiroi = White

Suisei = a) an aquatic plant, B) the force of water, c) Mercury, d) a comet, (sometimes used to descibe becoming famous overnight)

Take your pick, but my guess is Hakujin doesn`t buy your asiatic namesake...

you seen initial d?! ryosuke takahashi drove the white rx7 fc for the red suns but before that was known as the 'shiroi suisei' or 'white comet'.

I watched it a few times, but I cant keep up with the language. But thanks for the background info... I play the arcade game from time to time, though.

the translation in initial d is better than most amine i have seen. very cool show too. can't wait to get the game on PS2.

hmm... i'd hate to drift into a pothole at a high speed... but good luck finding an RX7 ryosuke sama. (love the avtar too, damn she's cute!)

it is out in aust. i got a copy on dvd about a year ago. all stages and the movies.

watch out what version you get though as a US company dubbed over the jap into english and changed all the names and stuff.

played arcade stage, it's mad! gettin' it on PS2 this weekend!

About the Arcade game...

Do you guys get a little credit card sized card, that you have to insert in the machine everytime you play, and it keep track of all the mods for the car you get when you win races? So that the next time you play, you can start where you left off?

haha, guys I think there is a bit off topic........he needs a rx7.

Ryosuke San// nah.....dude, here is not the place to find rx7, it is for skylines. here is the link of the aussie rx7 club, u could got ur stuff here: http://www.ausrotary.com/

anyway, welcome to chat here....haha.....quite funny......:rolleyes:

Cheers

what mean this word you use 'topic'?

ryosuke sama, how about this one? 1987 rx7 turbo - $8,600+. there's a few on prestige motorsport click 'current stock and vehicles sold' and sort by mazda to make it easy.

you can also try j-spec too but i have always had better luck actually calling or going to places so maybe have a look in the trading post as well.

good luck with finding one and tell me how you go, if i hear of any others i'll post 'em here and i want a ride when you get one ok?:rolleyes:

now back to the topic. rezz, yup, you can get those memory cards here but i can never be stuffed.

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
