Getting the RX-7 ready for Donington

[Mooseman]

following on from comments made weeks and weeks ago about making sure I make it, the rex is going to the specialist this weekend for some much needed attention to make sure she is fit to play on 9 Oct. for some reason, I seem to give cars too much of a pasting lol heavy right foot i guess. next car will be a nissan micra anyway, i hope by sat afternoon 0062 will be trailing far behind some rather large flames. look forward to joining in on the track day action soon!!

ps - i'll let you know if the fuel pump goes in or not, possibly an extra 20bhp for £250, bargain really

good, good mate... i'll have a shiny new magnex tomorrow to help things along but it's probably going to smoke even more though :(

let's hope it's not wet and you have some boooooost or else you're gonna get raped by 0062

Mmm this does not sound healthy!! Well at least your plan for NO MODDING whatsoever has been followed religiously

and btw even in the wet you'd have to pull some moves out your ass to 'rape' the rex

In a RX7 or RX8? there is a big difference. If you are coming to Dony i'll happily take you for a few laps.

Good points: very fast; capable of massive power when modded; if looked after can be fairly reliable for what they are; great looks

Bad points: poorly used (wrong fuel, no regular oil changes etc) will mean blown engine - min £2k job; high insurance group (although mine is not too much worse than 0062); if you are stoooopid enough to use it as a daily driver, you'll need a bank loan for the petrol *doh*

Also you should know that the engine will need renewing after about 60 - 75k anyway so if there is one going for a good price at that mileage you may well have a hefty bill coming your way :(

[Mooseman]
