Thanks mate. :P I like it too. Though I think it needs the nismo side skirt extensions to go with it, as from side on you can really see how much lower the front bar is than the stock side skirts. :P

here is what's next. my RX-7. it's a 2001 RZ model which means it is a bit lighter than the regular FD and it comes with carbon kevlar recaros, and BBS wheels and bilsteins plus it's only a 2 seater. I just had the engine rebuilt at pre-stage in japan which is a small but highly regarded rotary tuner. http://www.prestage.rgr.jp/workscar.html should be a fun car.

these pics are just fresh off the docks. not even a wash. :thumbsup:

don't really want to say. :dry: I've spent a bit on it. :) had the engine rebuilt etc all costs money. Plus now that I'm moving house I don't have as much car space as I used to so it will probably be for sale sooner or later. It's a pretty nice car though, quite low kms and I have the books for it too. It's surprising how good it looks for car that just came off the docks, it will look nice after a wash.

some info on the RZ for those that are interested. they are apparently the rarest variant of RX7 you can get. :)

The RX-7 Type RZ is a performance-enhanced limited edition version of the RX-7, Mazda's rotary engine-powered sports car. Type RZ is equipped with red custom full-bucket seats manufactured by Recaro, a custom suspension system manufactured by Bilstein, and custom aluminum wheels manufactured by BBS. These and other enhancements reduce the overall weight of the Type RZ by approximately 10kg, improving handling and performance. The Type RZ has a custom body in color snow white pearl mica color. Only 175 units of this limited edition model were sold.

Primary features of Type RZ:

- Red custom carbon/kevlar full-bucket seats manufactured by Recaro

- Custom gun metallic coloured forged aluminum wheels manufactured by BBS

- Custom dampers manufactured by Bilstein

- Custom red stitched steering wheel manufactured by Nardi (different wheel to the other models)

- Custom red stitched leather shift knob, stick shift boot, and parking brake lever boot

- Driver's side kneepads

- Passenger side aluminum footrest board

- Rear storage box

- Custom body color: snow white pearl mica.

Straight off the boat into Tassie and met by yet another import.

And then straight down to Symmons Plains.

There in an official capacity so I only managed two laps dropping gear to flaggies etc but still on a race track at full noise on the first day.

    • Hi all, I need to get this HKS SLD attached to my stock ECU because I've now got the German autobahn and faster European circuits to contend with.  The car is a manual 2dr ER34 with an AT ECU and I've realised the AT ECU has two pins for speed sensor signals: Pin 29: Vehicle speed sensor signal (Vehicle speed sensor 2) Pin *58: Output shaft rotation sensor signal (Vehicle speed sensor 1) - *RB25DET A/T model only Before I go butchering this harness, is anyone sure of which pin is the correct one for signal adjustment? The attached document from HKS indicates pin 29 but I found this situation mentioned in the following thread on a different forum (R34 GTT Auto Trans Speed Cut Problem | Zerotohundred) mentioning pin 58 needing to be altered by member zephuros, albeit it seems to be for an RSM-GP and the info appears to be old.  R34_All_Workshop_Manual-pages-2.pdf R34_All_Workshop_Manual-pages-3.pdf R34_All_Workshop_Manual-pages-1.pdf HKS SLD Vehicle Pin out P59-P70 ER34-pages.pdf

    • Slimline sub on the rear parcel shelf is doable. Pioneer TS-WX140DA is only 70mm high.   
    • People like Johnny Dose Bro might be laughing at my post because I accidentally added 100mm to my numbers. 350-355 is indeed the lower limit. 450 is off-road Skyline spec.
    • What is the "compromise" that you think will happen? Are you thinking that something will get damaged? The only things you have to be concerned about with spherical jointed suspension arms are; Arguments with the constabulary wrt their legality (they are likely to be illegal for road use without an engineering certificatation, and that may not be possible to obtain). A lot more NVH transmitted through to the passengers (which is hardly a concern for those with a preference for good handling, anyway). Greatly increased inspection and maintenance requirements (see above points, both).   It is extremely necessary to ask what car you are talking about. Your discussion on strut tops, for example, would be completely wrong for an R chassis, but be correct for an S chassis. R32s have specific problems that R33/4 do not have. Etc. I have hardened rubber bushes on upper rear control arms and traction rods. Adjustable length so as to be able to set both camber and bump steer. You cannot contemplate doing just the control arms and not the traction arms. And whatever bushing you have in one you should have in the other so that they have similar characteristics. Otherwise you can get increased oddness of behaviour as one bushing flexes and the other doesn't, changing the alignment between them. I have stock lower rear arms with urethane bushes. I may make changes here, these are are driven by the R32's geometry problems, so I won't discuss them here unless it proves necessary. I have spherical joints in the front caster rods. I have experienced absolutely no negatives and only positives from doing so. They are massively better than any other option. I have sphericals in the FUCAs, but this is driven largely by the (again) R32 specific problems with the motion of those arms. I just have to deal with the increased maintenance required. Given how much better the front end behaves with the sphericals in there.....I'd probably be tempted to go away from my preference (which is not to have sphericals on a road car, for 2 of the 3 reasons in the bulleted list above), just to gain those improvements. And so my preference for not using sphericals (in general) on a road car should be obvious. I use them judiciously, though, as required to solve particular problems.
