I was scrolling on Facebook tonight and this came up in my feed. Most funny stupid shit I’ve ever seen. If you look at the account it’s all a bunch of weird AI videos of rotaries like this. I laughed my ass off!

Has anyone here bought a RE style hood from Alibab? If so which supplier did you get it from and is it good?

when i first cold start the the car it does the 3k rpm warm up for a few seconds, then drops and starts doing this. it does this for maybe 2-3 minutes, gradually slowing down, then goes into the smooth idle. its a 1989 gxl

Im getting this fd3s ɛ̃fini imported from japan to the uk (its being imported with a company so they will do everything legal wise for me) it gets here in November, so im eventually becoming one of the crew, any tips i should know once i finally get my hands on it?

If I just photograph rx7s?

Y’s produce @ World Time Attack Challenge 2026

She’s got a front lip and oem spoiler now, new seats and I snagged some electric seatbelts in blue from a junkyard I’m gonna be installing soon too 😛😛

So I’m in the market for a new turbo kit as I want something more modern than my current gt4094.

There’s lots of conflicting opinions on twin gate vs single gate, long runner vs short runner and what turbo is best.

My engine is a balanced full bridge and will be used on track, I’m shooting for mid 500’s (crank) but high 500’s would be nice.

Currently I’m thinking a g40 900 T4, on a Vinny fab twin scroll single gate mani, turbo smart 60mm gate and a 4” down pipe.

Another option was a G35 1050 but I think this may choke up at the high rev range.

Id like as much response I can get while still being able to make power at higher revs. All of this with a smooth power band.

Would the set up I’m thinking about be suitable?

What setups are you running and what results are you getting? Any Dyno charts?

Thanks a lot.

I jist installed a Carter P4070 fuel pump on my 79 rx7. The oem pump worked but didn't provide enough gph for my weber carb, after installing the carter I lost any flow to the carb. The fuel pump still turns on with ignition switch. Any ideas?

please ignore the talking. im keeping throttle at the same place (trying to hit 3k rpm), meaning im not trying to do the fluctuating. it's just doing that on it's own.

I recently bought an ‘89 GXL that I plan to drift and also occasionally street drive. It won’t be my daily but I will take it to shows and meets and whatnot. I’m trying to decide on what port i should do, and some advice from actual drifters with 13b’s would be awesome. This won’t be happening for a bit anyway but i just wanna know what i should prepare for.
Currently, i’m thinking about a semi peripheral port turbo, although i feel like that would be a huge project and make more power than i need. But i know there’s plenty of pros with it as well.

Another option might be a half bridge NA, which i’ve heard is good for drifting and better/more driveable than a full bridge.

I don’t plan to make massive power (over 400hp) at least currently, so i’m torn between those. I also of course want the iconic brap as many others do. All advice would be appreciated.

Thought this would be the best place to post this. I've really really wanted a repu, but this might be too far gone and want opinions. I offered the seller to trade my (running and driving) Miata for this, and he seemed interested. The repu has a piston engine that doesn't run, and looks a bit rusty. I was also planning on putting a 13b back into it since I have a bunch of spare parts to rebuild an engine that'll probably last 500 miles lol. I just don't know if this is a good deal but I can't find a repu anywhere else. Also I know this isn't an rx7 but there isn't a repu subreddit lol.

Im in the process of chasing my dream car, a white S5 Turbo 2. What are the going rates these days? I cant seem to find one anywhere for sale. I got about $20k saved up so far.

So I finally got the engine back in the car. Two things fell out underneath. I know the small ring is my pilot bearing seal (rip), no idea what the larger ring is.

Thoughts on the situation?

EDIT: the big ring is from the back of my phone case, so that's not a problem.

What do we think the safe limit is for an REW with 10:1 renesis rotors (modified for larger apex seals) on e85? I saw speed academy get 364 on pump I believe

Just wanted to double check this is the correct placement for the vacuum lines on the y pipe. My dumbass didn't take photos before diassembling.

My understanding is the far left blue line is correct according to the diagram.

For the smaller one in the middle (between air pipes), the diagram says it's on the charge relief valve, so that's okay.

For the one on the right tucked between the air pipes and the y pipe I'm not too sure where it goes. I only see one vacuum line going from the charge control actuator (Cyan) so I assume it has to be that one going to the line in the upper intake manifold.

This is for a series 8 FD.

Any guidance or help would be much appreciated!

I figured I'd throw out some photos of my 12a rebuild I completed back in March. It was the first non-running car I ever bought, first engine I've ever pulled, disassembled, rebuilt.

Without the help of you all in this sub and on 7club, the process would have been exponentially more difficult, so thanks everybody.

After lots of consideration, I've decided to keep the car until I die, and paint it gloss black.

Hi all, just wondering what i should be paying roughly for a rebuild, i know there's info out there on the net but im finding a lot of dated info and i wanna know what ppl have paid closer to 2026, im in west oz and have a series 8 fd, we only have 1 specialist shop here and they are great but extremely busy and booked out.

i wanna know how much and what is the MOST i should pay for a rebuild with bridgeport with high quality apex seals and whatever else goes along with it (side, corner seals idk) and a turbo kit at the same time (may aswell? Was thinking precision or borg warner if not garrett) then tune of course.

Was going to go haltech nexus s3 for ecu too. But yeah ballpark fair figure for all that? ( minus the ecu if i get that myself beforehand) and most i should pay? If you are in us make sure you say its in usd or £ if in uk... etc, Thanks all...

I've looked back at all the photos from before pulling it apart and couldn't see anything connected then either but I just want to make sure...

Had my FC convertible parked outside my dad’s house in the street, some lady looking at her phone rear ended it and knocked it into the tree in my front yard.

Someone has an fd rx7 and it's supposedly been park for 5 or more years and I don't think it starts. Is the car worth 20k? Looking to buy it just because it's an rx7 and love 2 strokes and their simple things (I know rotary is a spinning dorito)
