My Stock Glitterpig RX7

[Fryman]

Here it is, like it or lump it i think its cool.

No more secrets, and a couple of things to fix, but i believe it should shape up ok!

Anybody know where i can get that back panel and the 3 cracks fixed for a good price?

[Jazza]

Dirty drifta ay!!
Looks hot

[Morgs]

HAH - Knew it from the centre console and lack of rear seats from the picture of the seats you sent me :)

My GF used to have one, they're fun cars; yours certainly looks like it has some poke.

Also brought in a heavily (T8834D etc) modifed RX7 - was good fun :) All the best with it...

[Fryman]

cheers rick

should be fun after i spend 4 grand getting it up to speed

[titmeat]

that looks really nice !

[MrMayhem]

You bought that ...... to hook in didnt you fryer

Its got a heap of gear fine tuning it all should keep you busy

nice one

[Fryman]

sank you :) yes indeed. the hookups will be all around. Ping goes the rota

[Remix]

Have you seen it in person yet?

[LNYMRKO]

Looks the goods bro! :)

[RB20ZED]

and do i get a prize for guessing the exact car ?

[magic1]

its just a rotor. sorry dude it really is.

[TJ]

it aint no 118 bmw thats for sure!

[AndrZeJ]

does it come with a couch i can ****?

[Starion_turbo]

I guessed it and maintained my guess that It was FC Rx7 with a big turbo from the first day lukian said "youll know when it comes"

Only lukian is crazy enough to drive a dirty chook cooker!!!

I have to say it looks bloody awesome, has some choice aftermarket gear on it (drooling over Ohlins,recaros,EMS,trust pulley kit and that abortion of a turbo) and I bet it will put a few apperant "fast cars" to shame!!

Will definetly be a wild car - just keep it in one piece so I can go for a drive in it when I come back to Perth :P

Cheers

Kim

[Shano]

That is a fkn whack looking FC.. congrats if it all works out!

Might want to get heavy duty wipers, that turbo will spew out a lot of hot chicken fat ;/

[munchmunch]

first thing i noticed was the series 6 intake manifold then i seen the dirty turbs :op: should jump on perthrotary and show that bad boy off

[Fryman]

chasing doors :)

[lysdexia]

V mount. cool. but has it been hacked up to make it fit?

is nice car though :D

[[RX2]]

nice score...... s6 donk! with big turbo conversion!
can i ask what it cost ya? & what mods do you know it has??

[Fryman]

all mods are listed in the file www.colognes.com.au/files/altoworks.zip (http://www.colognes.com.au/files/altoworks.zip) file. in the MHT file (which is openended by IE)

700,000 yen + 100,000 yen for Mr Schumann.

[JME]

Nice.....i've seen another convertible running around here. Orange one i think....anyone seen it....'looks' similar.

[TJ]

used to be owned by brockas dad jme

[bodybodyrock]

i cbf dloading the pics n **** coz my puter is fuked can somone post a few up

[Fryman]

for the lazy and uninspired

[cplagz]

I touched it.

[[SPESHAL]]

Nice, looks like it should go hard.

But to be honest, I've got no idea why the big secret. There are about 500 wilder cars in Perth.

[suburban]

saves all the questions that cant be answered, people whining and bitching about something they know noting about etc etc :)

[Fryman]

ok.. went down to the wharf yesterday to see her for the first time.

I wrote in excitement and despair my problems and "Character" of my car.

http://spaces.msn.com/members/fryman0/

Oh dear

[Fryman]

excuse me for being over-exuberant. im all antsy after running huge risks of importing something on 3 pics. And this is what happens

[doriae86]

dead motor within 3 months
forsale in 6 months (after costly repair)
sell in 18 months (takes a while for the 15yo chickentreat worker to apply for bank loan and get his license)

[B0BB0]

it looks like you gotta see dave at Gas 78 to get it sprayed,

hes the house of kolor king.

nice car.

Sticks out like the ducks nuts. I feel sorry for the 4 oddd cars that they left the windows down on.

[TJ]

id be suing someone

[Fryman]

and one more link just to spice it up a little. Taken when i went down to the wharf with my 6670.

my snail look angry and my brakes say nissan.

[31-EVO]

That looks bloody nice mate. Good buy!! Im a n00b to Mazda's, is that it a 1989/1993, i wast hinking around that era? Sorry if I'm wrong, looks like a nice car!! Good luck with it~!

[Fryman]

**Update**

Todays a good day for an update, as a couple things have happened since ive taken possesion of my babY! Intake gaskets have been replaced, and other tidyups.

Took it to a Tuning shop in O'Connor, which most are familiar with, and to no avail it cannot be tuned. The primary injectors cannot be determined what size they are, and trimming of the fuel maps prove fruitless, as above 2000rpm the a/f ratio is below 10:1

Some electrical fault persists, where below 1200rpm it runs on one rotor. Spark plugs are fouled, and it seems that if they are changed, at the point where it hits 2000rpm they will foul again. Its getting HEAPS of fuel. LF performance is my next point of call as they will know whats the buzz.

10 metres down the road after leaving the tuning shop, my bonnet flys off! Lucky its a convertible, so i grab the bonnet before it makes itself downt he tarmac, cutting my hand and breaking a rather large portion of my fingernail.

I went back, held the anger, shaking like a bitch thinking that was my head on the line, and politely asked for a rag and some duct tape. The owner offered a sorry, and i left for home.

Opinions and such, but what would you do if somebody worked on your car, left the bonnet pins off, you drove off and your bonnet flew up, breaking both corners, cutting your hand and breaking fingernails.

It wouldnt be so bad if it was normal paint. Hell i might of thrown the bonnet on the side of the road and kept driving.

[TJ]

id be politely asking for some form of remittance

[redline07]

Feel your pain dude! a while ago i was getting new track tyres fitted to the starlet at a wheels and tyre place. The owner thought he'd take his son for a thrash after we left, forgetting to clip on the bonnet pins. Down the road and the bonnet flipped up, bent in half and smashed the windscreen. EP71 parts arn't all that common either....

[cplagz]

People do make mistakes, but its wether or not they will admit to making them is the flipside of the coin. If you want my advice I would write a letter explaining the situation and leave them to counter back at what options they wish to offer to rectify the situation. If the reply is not satisfactory, send them another letter letting them know what you think would be reasonable.
You know where to contact me if you need advice/help writing it :)

[tmz_99]

']id be politely asking for some form of remittance

after which I'd be asking for remittance rather forcefully..
basically go to 3 different specialist shops and get a quote on repair of fiberglass + respray and come back to them with the bills, they can choose, or you can take them to small claims court, the dammage to your bonnet is quite clearly a result of their negligance.

[13Beast]

Go the MTA!

These guys can be your best friend... And the worst enemy of that workshop who ****ed you over ;)

All u need to do is give 'em a call, tell them all about your situation, they will open a case for you and investigate. Remember this is a motor vehicle industry ombudsman funded by OUR taxes...

Dont be shy to bring in the big hitters - my mum has got them working on her case against Renault at the moment - she owns a 9 month old late 2004 Renault Megane - and it slips for 3-4 seconds every time it upshifts to second, then flares going into third. She's already been given the runaround by Giant Renault (thinking she's some middle aged woman and they can tell her any old bull****) they reckon they all drive like that (maybe they do - but its still got a problem haha) and that the last models (get this) - had "spools in the gearbox. So be thankful with what you have."
How's that for service after buying a $32000 motor-car from a dealer...

[B0BB0]

the MTA cant do much if the workshop involved isnt a member.

the best they can do is send a letter, and give u advice i think.

[13Beast]

If to escape any onus of responsibility and chance of being punished was as easy as not being an MTA member, then who would be able to watch over and preside the industry??

As far as I know, the MTA are the automotive industry ombudsman/watchdog - so regardless of whether the workshop in question is an MTA member or not, the MTA have clout and certainly be able to ruffle some feathers...

[Fryman]

I received a phone call today, and the owner is more then happy to repair the damage. Its not a nice situation to be in, but it has to be fixed. Given the magnitute of the paint, it aint gonna be cheap.

Its the little things like Bonnet pins, that can cause huge issues.

[AndrZeJ]

who is the owner? the one in japan?


that bonnet looks nasty needs work Luki

[mek]

They do all indeed drive like that. Crappy french cars.

[13Beast]

Hey the French can make some killer cars...

Need I mention the Peugout 205 GTI, and the bad ass Renault 5 GT Turbo...

And in 1904, Renault invented the turbocharger... Something we are ALL thankful for ;)

[Fryman]

Time For an update!

Well its been 8 month of pain, cash and numerous boost rotary jokes! Took the pig to Ovaboost for a light tune. The amount of fuel removed from that map is nothing short of a small refinary.

/rant Something is quite astray as the a/f ratios change constantly... cutting and shunting s6+ running gear into a s5 is a headache /rant

It made 305rwhp on 8psi. In the 11s which is safe but not efficient. The dyno graph is not worth posting @ this point until it is tuned again. Fuel pump is the gremlin now as it cannot supply the basting needed to perfectly roast the chook. 044s in transit

Bit of a freak making that much power on low boost. Pulls like a steam train and eats small children.

Thanks to all the support so far from the laggers and close mates. Insults also appreciated and noted. No more stinging eyes and eau de rotor is now discontinued. Also special thanks to cplagz for holding hands and telling me that im pretttty.

Time to hit the track!

couple of pics here http://www.charitymods.org/pics/tuningday1/

[Fryman]

admin please move this to showcase.

[[RX2]]

sick :dizzy: thats some good power !

[cplagz]

You aren't pretty, your gorgeous ;)

[Fryman]

http://www.charitymods.org/files/dyno.JPG

315 Angry horsies! It made over 360hp. Then we dropped it down 40ish hp for reliability and stableness. The buffer zone attempts to take any discrepency that might happen in fuel, ignition etc etc.

Goes plenty fast and im happy for it. Now for that nice avgas 44gallon to arrive...

[Shano]

Congrats bro that's a great number for the street

[Fryman]

cheers,

I suppose the harping on about "ultra conservative tuning" and "if it pops, cannot do this again due to stretched finances" determined the final outcome.

yes i lost serious amounts of power, but peace of mine > overall hp figures.

[TJ]

391 @ 1 bar is the rumour, false claims just make your combo look crap, be honest!

[[SPESHAL]]

A t51 and 300 rwhp?????????

[cplagz]

It's not a T51, its some hybrid thing.

[[SPESHAL]]

Either way for a LARGE turbo on that boost level its pretty AVERAGE effort.

[WRCjosh]

mattys car made about 340rwhp on less boost and a far smaller turbo, and NO porting. Honesty is the best policy :)

[cplagz]

dyno queens :p

[[SPESHAL]]

:D

[Fryman]

as you can see by the graph, thats what it come down to. And as mentioned before, we took 3 degrees of timing out, and added more fuel for reliability. For you that maybe average, for me that means piece of mind and staying intact for a bit longer. If you dont believe what it says, ill take you for a spin and you can judge for yourself ;)

Its bloody fast in anybodys books... and to put the rumours at bay, it feels ALOT faster then a 315hp car... make of that what you will :D

[TJ]

I make of that that it made more then 315 :)

[Brockas]

']Either way for a LARGE turbo on that boost level its pretty AVERAGE effort.
Whats the point in having massive HP if you wont use it because you're afraid it will pop?

Lukian has done it smart, he's had the car tuned to his budget, he can't afford a rebuild, so he's not going to risk it.

How many cars have you seen that have made bulk HP, but never get driven because they are constantly getting fixed?

Nice work Lukian, now get that bitch on the road.

[cplagz]

']Either way for a LARGE turbo on that boost level its pretty AVERAGE effort.

Maybe it needs 2bar+ to come alive?

Who knows! All these possibilities!

[WRCjosh]

id say at 1 bar that turbo is barely spinning.

[Fryman]

Now ya understand. 1 bar is no where near that turbos efficiency. Taken into account that its a older hks dirty jap t45s/51r thing and its relative. Im prepared to run ONLY 1 bar on ultimate 98.

Its not the case that i cannot afford to pay to rebuild this again. I DONT WANT TO!! what BETTER way then having piece of mind that the rotary isnt gonna detonate on wonderful aussie fuel then just restricting the boost. IF and WHEN we get to the point of winding more boost into it, race fuel it is.

This car makes 315-320 reliable rear horse power on 1 bar. understand that it will happily do this with everything no where near capacity, all day long. Eating hsvs and most performance orientated cars on the road with a dirty convertible works for me. And unlike most others, im not gonna have a cry if i loose to somebody else. If it was running 1.8 bar on race fuel, then i probably would!

[Fryman]

if you dont believe this, ring Mick @ ovaboost, he will be more then happy to reaffirm all this!

Reliability in a rotor is a hard thing, we all know this. Why jeopardise the situation with "YOUR A WEAK FCUK BECAUSE YOU RUN 1 BAR AND ONLY make 315 hp"

[[RX2]]

haha nice s hit fight , still a good figure , i think your damn keen even running 1 bar with u98 in a rotor . - i will only run 10 - 12psi MAX !

[mc68]

fryman, i was that kid who rocked up at adsport on sunday arvo to say hello...

did ya end up driving home with lights ok :) car looks berry nice in the flesh...

Andy

[Fryman]

ahh yeah dude :) all good! headlights are teh novelty at the moment. Means it can be driven in the night. No more bunky runs into freo on the night out!

[bodybodyrock]

wats wrong with 315hp??
sounds prety good to me

[RGVFAST]

im calling 1 bar weak as piss

lukina is a big girls blouse
________
yamaha trx850 specifications (http://www.yamaha-tech.com/wiki/Yamaha_TRX850)

[Brockas]

Theres nothing wrong with it, the only thing people are comparing it to is say a built Rb26 with to4z making 400rwhp.

They think it's still good power, it should just be making more.

I think 1 bar on that turbo is way out of its efficiency range, so its good it's making 315 already.

[big o]

If the rx7 is making that much power, which is very possible

there is not many cars on this forum that will go any where near it on the road, maybe Simon,Bobbo,booga's and MunchMunch thats it.

give Lukian some crdeit on what he has done, that is decent power no matter how big the turbo is

If it is safe it's enough

You fella's never let the truth get in the way of a good Yarn.

[Fryman]

Cheers,

When your on boost and your a/fs are in the 10s ya know its a fat tune! reliability is key boys and girls. Also consider that its an older hks jobby. Not tuning for power tuning for good power + reliability

[Brockas]

And it still pulls on me even when you're shifting at 7k...

[ToYotER]

whats the purpose of that pipe/hose in the centre of your pod?

[WRCjosh]

probably an oil return line, dodgy catch can substitute!

Time2Update


Due this fryday.. a couple of light additions to the glitter piggy.

Endless 6 Piston racing caliper "system up" kit. Trust t78-22cm Kit (possibly to be sold in australia and a t88-38gk kit ordered), Rays Gram light 5 spoker in titanium coating finish (hopefully) and "father of all chinese 100mm coolers" Blitz LM Gtr Replacement

/me waves goodbye to what was a house deposit.

Special thanks to Alex from nengun for being accomodating and turning things around, and adsport who has self inflicted himself a nightmare of rotary induced madness.

p.s anybody knowing of a good autoelectrician who will come to you and get paid in cash booze or sexual favours please let me know.

[Milhouse]

hahahahahha

Do you get a loyalty rewards card at DPI, like buy 10 permits get one free, or for every Permit purchased get 50% off your next pit inspection.....

[kneedtotinkle]

nah he doesnt even pay, dodgy boy hacks the system and prints them out like they were going out of fashion.....

jjks

[Adsport]

i love the new roof racks

[Milhouse]

overrated :)

Taken from lukians msn space :D Dated August 13th, year unknown.

In some sort of whacky sequence of events, the cars getting closer to rego! New bodykits nearly painted, all thats left is indicators headlights quieten the pig up and its time to get a hitlist from the pits!

[Fryman]

well 14.6 is the time she set on poo gbox and china tyres. quite happy with that there is huge time to be made up

with a mazdaspeed 4.7 final drive ratio.

slightly overkill but that will do

[Matt-AE86]

no more top speed for you..

[cplagz]

No point in having top speed around here anyway, just gets ya in trouble and ya car taken off you.

Rather be able to keep up with bikes to 150kph, then try to break landspeed records.

[addicted.to.speed]

its about time you dd some more burnouts lukian..

[cplagz]

he's stuck in indo :(

[Skitzo]

by stuck is he literrally stuck ie not allowed or cant leave?

[RMX]

I was fuckin shattered that the Glitter pig wasnt at MV, Was hoping to get many skid pics..

[Fryman]

fastest to 160 is the winner on the road.

me too. getting out of indonesia now

on a random fact... 5 australians left australia and have illegally landed in jakarta without visas or customs..

im sure thats the definition of doing it wron!

[Fryman]

I was fuckin shattered that the Glitter pig wasnt at MV, Was hoping to get many skid pics..

as was i... was gonna go all out this year!


why wont the topic change name ive edited it

[SLEEKA]

changed for me i think?

didnt it have something about being a secret in the last topic?

[Fryman]

small update..

engine is being redone. well half of it. the beauty of being a rotor is cheap repair costs.

leads were on the wrong way, ie backwards, so second housing is perfect(that premix is fantastic) but the rotor has dents in it! a tribute to hurleys, they seem to work ok . Corner seals are rooted as well

it would of got all the wrong timing, ie trailing instead of leading and vice versa, yet it still pealed hard!

So it gets a new c type rotor back together and then time for more skids.

and before the haters get in ahaha. it has done 42,548kms since the original build. and they were HARD hard kms on my tune. So it all works rather well!

[RGVFAST]

42k on permits is an achievement in itself

[kiasu]

hahaha, must be up to 150 by now

[Fryman]

117 permits.

lol and all the times it didnt get permits. Not to hard to do if its out 3 times a week causing havoc

[RGVFAST]

lol 117 permits should red flag something at dpi

[Fryman]

eat a dick ross!

ouch that is exactly how i blew my first motor in my rx3 fucked around with shit while full of piss we live and learn

[Lump]

this thread is seriously lacking in pics :|

[Fryman]

its a glitter gold rx7 with a broken body kit and an appetite for tyres when provoked... not much more else to it.. the dog box didnt even get worn in!

since i didnt really care for the body so much as it would of cost too much to respray(functionality over form) , and people these days seem to care how the car looks rather that it gets the shit kicked out of it on the street, daily... the mods should speak for itself ;)

thats not a dig at anybody btw...
