your RX7 = porn , great to see that sex spec hasnt hit Perth's rotors like it has over east

[shifted]

Both cars look clean, love the RX-7 - perfect.

[vinnie]

Cheers.. yeah agree with you there.. dont like big chromies.. looks gay spec

[vinnie]

Thanks Shifted - pretty hard to see the 180 go.. new owner turned it to shit

[Huy]

Looks tidy, man. Nice.

[DrKarl]

[vinnie]

cheers guys.. look forward to meeting up at some cruises.. hopefully a couple soon.

[karnage]

looks mint, You still go to Factory RE? (noticed you have their radiator cooling panel in one of your pics). Also are you a member of the rotary forums?

[vinnie]

cheers karnage

yeah they have a new workshop.. havent been in yet but pop in every now and then to see them..

Not a member of the rotary forums atm.. just antilag :)

[beefcake]

nice unit , simple and effective :) does skids :confused:

[viet_boi]

that 180sx Eloise's old car "Miss E"??

but Rx7 looks nice, clean and simple

[karnage]

Yeah prorace products their called now. The local rotor forum is www.perthrotor.com and the aus wide one is www.ausrotary.com , lots of info and rotary specific stuff on there :), Beef's one of the gurus of the perth group.

How long you had the car for? I can swear iv seen it before somewhere but can't put my finger on where :confused: :confused: :confused:

[beefcake]

hahaha im far from a guru mate, just a dude with a yellow skid machine , i wouldn't know half the shit to do with rotas , hence why i leave it to pro race to sort out :)

[vinnie]

Yeah does skids.. problem keeping traction up to 3rd.. 2nd gear = fun

Nah had the 180 for 9 years before 2008

had rota 4 2yrs now.prob seen me on antilag cruises couple months ago. just havent been on any lately. ill keep an eye out for next one.

[MISS 13B]

Nice dude! Any future mods planned?

[180SXTCY]

lovelly example of a rotor!

[AGIT8D]

that 180sx Eloise's old car "Miss E"??

but Rx7 looks nice, clean and simple

EXACTLY my thoughts.. Looks identical to [MISS E] though I haven't seen that car in a very long time. If Vinnie owned it for 9 years I'd say nope can't be possible..

[ovaxitd]

[vinnie]

Nice dude! Any future mods planned?

enough money spent.. looking at semi slicks for the quarter mile..

[vinnie]

Tidy fd!!! seen at a couple of cruises.... gate vs gate haha... was your missus driving it on a cruise too??

cheers.. i remember that night, you gated past me on the road before garden city..

[rat]

Very hot, nice job love everything about it! What sort of times can a 400hp rx7 get? 10's? =D

[JBAE]

410rwhp on rotomotions dyno sanders ran 11.1 on good street tyres i do believe....

[kurbn]

[vinnie]

Been told low 11's.. traction is the main issue really.. looking at semi slicks at the moment.

cheers mate

took out horsepower king for rotaries at motorvation.. 370hp on a 42 degree day on active automotive dyno.. at night 2 days before it got 400 on factory re now trading as pro race..

would be happy anywhere in 11 second bracket

nice rig!! Would stay away from semi slicks for drag work, stiff sidewalls will be worse than street tyres. Look into drag radials if you're after a "street"ish tyre for the drags.

[joshg123]

Nice to see a engine bay shot,

We followed this on a cruise once for about 750m with consistant flame

haha yeah those freeway runs were killa

[rat]

Yeah I agree a set of drag radials would be the way to go opposed to semi's. Good luck!

[Tones]

ah k, cheers man.

if your still going to pro race they should be able to source them.

[c.rusli]
