Which parts of the pump needed to be trimmed?

 

Crap picture. Trim down the little bump and thread the hole (see the arrows)

 

**** has been going on lately. Not everything visible but herīs some pictures of what I have been able to take pictures of ( a bit booring with pictures og cables going here and there.

Intercooler is done. Washed out all the crap I hope








Intake manifold is finally done with all the bungs and conectors. Pipes and turbo are painted.

Seriously getting somewhere. Will crank it during the weekend to check for leaks and start setting up the SM4

 

Very nice too see that your car is soon ready I can't wait until this car is done Can you please show us more of that cooling system?

And where did you get those fittings from?

 

Great stuff, beautiful rx-7, a real work of art. Those are some expensive clamps. Your car is looking nice, it is easy to appreciate attention to detail!!

 

Cant wait my self Really looking forward to take the car out for a spinn. Are you refering to the water coolant re-route?`That is from Bell

The fittings/clamps are Pegasus clamps bought on e-bay. Just do a search for "pegasus clamp"

 

Thank you

The clamps are not that bad. Would have been worse if I had gone for the original ones.

 

I was thinking of the an fittings

 

Ah, Allmost everything is from Summit. Mostly Earlīs. Search for "hose end black"

If you are planning an order form Summit, please let me know. I need one tiny little thing

 

And we had a veeeeeeeery happy workshop day this weekend

 

I don't need anything yet. Do you have any experience with thorshov's here in norway?

 

Donīt know what brand they carry or what the quality or price is like. But they donīt have black ones just the usual red and blue. But if you are going to buy several fittings Summit is the plase. Earlīs for the same price as cheaper brands in Norway.

You can check out what you need, I have some black fittings left that Iīm not going to use. -8 and -10 AN

 

the price is very nice on thorshov imo. I don't really know what sizes i need, but it's only the oil retour for my garret 3071 thats left on my turbokit

 

I think I would have stayed away from the Torshow hose ends. But you never know, they may work just fine.

I used -10 AN og the oil return from the turbo. Welded on a male bung on the "outlet tube" from the turbo.

 

A short video of the startup of the RX-7. The car is not tuned perfect, but it is getting there.

 

MASSIVE updatte

finally got the settings sorted and started the car yesterday. My own car uses the old cas system, but this one has the crank trigger and a 1-2 pulse intake cam sync pulse. so it was a new thing for me getting that to work.
But we got it started within hours of our first attempt
