    Need ways to reduce weight in my poopra

    Um... sawblades aren't that terribly heavy... ~18lbs apiece, plus tire. Not featherweight, but about the same weight as an average aftermarket rim. Also... the RX-7 has an aluminum jack that only weighs 3 pounds or so. I've been keeping an eye out for one in junkyards myself. :)

    Stainless flanges

    Jon: If you could come up with a pattern, I'm sure a machinist could be found to make them. Something like "I want you to make me a flange this shape, half an inch thick..." My g/f's stepdad is an out-of-work machinist... he doesn't have the equipment to make stuff, but I bet he could...

    New electric fan option...

    Blah! "We do not have this information on file due to the fact that they are manufactured for direct OE replacements. I apologize for any inconvience this has caused. Have a great day!" >:( So I guess the only way to know for sure would be to measure it ourselves, or possibly find a...

    7m revability discussion

    Wasn't there a guy from some Pacific island on the forums running a built 7m in a drag car? I remember this guy posting that he was having problems with stuff breaking whenever he revved past 10,000rpm.

    Welcome to the forums. Man, that trailer was lame -- it should have at least had one drag strip run and one dyno run in it. ;P Wasn't someone else working on some kind of video compilation as well?

    T4 Turbo swapa anyone

    Actually, I agree with you -- I'd like to see SupraMANIA become the definitive MK3 resource. The people here are much friendlier. Believe me when I say I scoured SM for that info before I linked SF. :) The beginner's mod-list used to be cross-posted here, but it looks like it didn't get...

    T4 Turbo swapa anyone

    Another resource is to see what the folks at http://www.7mpower.com/ are running -- give you an idea of what works.

    T4 Turbo swapa anyone

    Well, the turbo elbow is one of the most restrictive parts of the stock exhaust system, and is usually one of the first things that get upgraded. I think you would need to replace the turbo elbow anyway, to be able to bolt up to the T4 turbo. [begin talking out of ass] As for the Lambda...

    T4 Turbo swapa anyone

    I've not done such a swap myself, but all the cars I've seen with such setups have had everything Spoolint mentioned, and some air/fuel modifications -- bigger injectors, standalone fuel management, etc. You'd probably need a bigger fuel pump, too. I don't think it would be a huge project...

    CHI2K5 Pics!!!

    LOL! I like the mask around the boost controller. I want to get one that says "There's no replacement for displacement... except LOTS OF FORCED INDUCTION!"

    Maybe have two levels of RSVP'ing -- one that prepays and gets a 20% discount, and another that says "I might show up, and pay full price at the gate"? Might kick a few more people in the arse to show up...

    ...Euro badge? *scratches head* Not remembering that. Hrm... maybe it was just the sleep-deprivation at work. Hehehe... come to think of it, I have never met a single one of you folks without having been up way past my bedtime. :)

    TuboA: hell yeah! If we get another mini-meet going here in Indy, I'll let you know. I'll watch for Wisconsin meets too. :) We do seem to have a problem getting people to show up to midwestern events. We had a whopping 3 people show up to the Indy meet... the two people who wanted to get it...

    Huntin5l: I met your bro -- I remember he was trying to decide whether to dyno or not. I had a pretty good time, guys -- lots of nice cars! It was great to meet everybody. Hopefully next year I'll have something to show off. :) I just wish I could have gotten a better look at that Turbo A...
