1st. gen
RX7 drag racing project
Started May 2010
Thanks Rotarydude
(rx7club.com) for the car
My goals are to go 9.7 at 150mph.
Things planed for the RX7
8.8 rearend with 4.10 gears, TurboII trans,
REW motor with sec. bridge
Electromotive Tec GT
ecu with 8400cc of fuel
Weldon
A1100 fuel pump with -10 fuel line
S480 turbo with a 50mm wastegate
Water/air intercooler rated at 1000hp
Tilton twin plate clutch
HP goal is 700rw and getting the 7 down to
2100lbs
Project to be complete by Nov 2010 for IFO Dallas
First thing done was
install a FD radiator and fans.
Now the water to air intercooler,
Rated at 1000hp. 16x4x3 3 in and
outlets
50mm blow off valve
SurFlow pump with a 10 gallon ice chest with
½ line.
TurboII trans tunnel modification. It is in a perfect location
Used the turboII trans
brace. One bolt did line up on the drivers side and had to
Fabricate a mount for the
passenger side.
Tilton/HKS twin plate
If using this clutch on a FC trans, grind
down the cover bolts to clear the clutch fork.
Oil pan redone to use the
FD motor mounts with the 1st gen oil pan.
Now the motor has four
motor mounts, stock 1st gen fronts and
Stock FD rears.
The cage started out as a
Added the door bars and
rear cross bar.
Had to modify the two front
legs to go through the vents on the 1st gen dash.
Also lowered the rear loop
1.5 inches to make room for the padding.
REW motor. Very small
secondary bridge. Ported primaries.
Ported the exhaust ports slightly
bigger then the sleeves.
Added two dowel pins to the
front and one to the rear.
Rear dowel is drilled .75
in to the rear plate.
The two front dowels are
drilled .40 into the front plates.
Drill through the front
plate tension bolt holes and tapped them,
so the longer tension bolt
would not require shorting.
Turbo (S480) with the race
cover.
T6 rear with a 1.32a/r housing. 96mm back wheel, freaking huge!
Down pipe. 4 inch running
out the fender
It will see a few 40/45psi
Ό mile runs.
First start
Fuel system.
Went with the Weldon 1100A fuel pump.
Rated at 1100 turbo
HP. Going with -10 from the
Tank to the motor then it t
off to two -8s to the fuel rails.
Paxton pressure regulator
with -6 return line.
5 gallon fuel cell
Four 1600cc and two 1000cc
injectors for now.
Two 1600cc for primary and
two 1600cc and two 1000cc for secondary.
C16 race fuel. Wanted to
try E85 but bought the wrong fuel pump.
Dyno
675rwhp at 8000rpms.
4th gear pull
was 670rwhp but let off at 6700rpms
80/85 tuned.
Motor had around 60 minutes
of idle time, 5/7 heat cycles
Prior to this dyno day. Did
24 pulls between 3rd and 4th gear.
Boost pressure?? Dont
care. Timing-spark line on the plugs were
In the middle of the
electrode. AFRs- really bad in the lower
Rpms range, under load
still not consistent.
Random drag car photos
Future dream plans
Jerico trans, pro-jay
lower manifold, throttle
body elbow
with a 100mm throttle body.
Bigger rear tire after the
trans upgrade.
