thanks alot

[Roadrunner]

mabrook man on the Fd,First one ,and if u add carbon fiber parts instead it will look more cool ;)

[Interceptor]

Alf mabrook bro, very nice choice.
Seriously, all orange is better..!
Just add some small black touches here and there instead of that and keep it orange.
That's just my opinion though.

Can you post some pics of the actual car?

[ADM]

Keep it orange, it looks wonderful. Some CF touches here and there, give it a sleek look, nothing wild and flashy. Best of luck with your car bro :up:

[Ottoman]

Mabrook man, glad u bought it in the end u got the white one right?

I know another guy in Kuwait with an FD.. but he has a blown motor..
his name is mohammed..



when u need help with the car (and i know u will :p) ur welcome to ask me anytime...

maybe for once i wont be the only RX7 at a GGT meet haha


oh and I like the 2 Tone paint more than just orange

[Attack666]

I like the 2 Tone paint more than just orange

+1

[ADM]

I just thought of something. 2 tone paint job, splits at the fenders?

[coolioo]

Great Stuff ......Two tone anyday!!

[Quarantine]

All orange except for the carbon fiber hood if you have one leave it unpainted.

[ファルーク]

id repaint it white with sum CF here n there, diffusers, black or bronze wheels and try not to make it a F&F car! JDM all the way :)

make it look scary not daloo3!

[SAMoloGY]

slap a 2j in it hahahaha

id say go with a Cwest bodykit.. keep it white.. and add as much CF as possible.. and bronze/gold rims as 'Q said!

[ED]

rims are perfect .. the wing doesnt fit in my opinion

all the best and keep us updated bro :up2:

[KWT^350z]

ok now thanks alot for all your replays, and i can see most of you like the car in orange w/ black

by the way i cant change any of my items because i pay for them already and will be in kuwait tomorrow or after tomorrow

Roadrunner, the only reason i didnt buy any carbon fiber items is because it will not match and the car will be over color (CF, black, orange)

Interceptor, my real car picturs are posted above and by now i think most of the members agree with Black orange thanks

[Ottoman]

Does Raceonusa ship body kits to the middle east direct?

or are you using a 3rd party?

[KWT^350z]

ADM, you change you mind and as i told Interceptor CF, orange and black will be over, i mean if i put the hood in CF and the roof in black and the side is orange will be over color

Ottoman, you are right i bought the white RX7 which you post its pic. thanks
mohammed is my friend and he told me that he know you too i was with him yesterday, and ofcurse i`ll need you when i finish from the car looking to take your advice in the engine i need to get 600+ RWHP
by the way, you know me personally !!

ZEX, as i told the other will be over color

Quarantine, la wallah i didnt buy any CF cause i afraid from over color

`Q, are you sure F&F RX7 with veilside body kit is daloo3

Staind Wheels, i bought the Cwest body kit, but i dont like the white color cause all our car are white, also i didnt buy any CF items for the exterior

Splash, you are right i Use 4 of my 350z items ...:)

`Q and BLOODLINE, sorry but you were wrong about the wing and wheels, i was thinking they will be agley but i take them to my friend house he have RX7 and i put them on the car and the look more than lovely ...
hehehe, when he saw them on his car he ask me to sale them to him

thanks alot guys

600 will be amazing on our cars.. they are so small and light.. 600 will scare the crap out of anybody... like having 1000+ on a supra..
:doom:


I know personally?Really.. where did we meet? u never told me!

now i feel silly *doh*

[Interceptor]

It's up to you KWT. Just make sure you post pics of the final product.
One more thing, maybe it's time to change your username hehe..

Best of luck bro

[KWT^350z]

ottoman, you said you know me and i was asking you from where you know me ?
do you mean in GGT only or you meet me outside here ?

Interceptor, thanks alot shall i change my nick name to KWT^RX7 or sunset_RX7

thanks

[Ottoman]

ohh I thought u were telling me u know me personally....

my mistake.. hehe i misunderstood..

[Interceptor]

Interceptor, thanks alot shall i change my nick name to KWT^RX7 or sunset_RX7
I don't know it's up to you bro. Sunset_RX7 seems nice, so that people know the car by that name..

Hope to see you next to Ottoman in a GGT gathering :up:

thanks again

[Pink Fluff]

The FD is one of the sexiest machines to come out of Japan. I am not too fond of the rotary as reliability issues always pop up. Pushing for a 600Hp rotary is not the wisest decisions in my opinion. There are many swap options available including the all mighty LS1. A 2JZ swap is not one of the better ones due to many reasons, most important of which is that you have to modify the sub frame (in the FD case, the sub frame also has the suspension bolted to it.. so custom work here ruins the geometry) also, the 2JZ makes the FD very nose heavy.

My recommendation is that you swap the 13B to a turbo 4 cylinder (I can hear Ottoman complaining already :P ). The 4 cylinder would be much more reliable and would make decent power that you can use all day.. heat or not.. rain or shine etc..

ya3ni something like an SR20DET :D

There is no engine u can put into an FD without moddin the subframe unless it's another rotary..

come to my place and i'll show u why..

any engine especially a 4 cyl.. pushing 600hp will not be more reliable..
at that level they're just if not more delicate..

and it will cost u alot more to make 600hp out of a 4pot than a 2 rotor..


not to mention the cost of the conversion itself...



the reliability is a misconception.. as proven by Le-mans.. mazda being the only non european or american manufacturer to win..

and have the record for reliability.. with cars entered vs finishing..


the Rotor is not less reliable.. just less "dummy proof"

that's the difference

id love to see an SR20 swapped into an FC or FD!

SR's are great motors, built well.. and can handle alot of beating.. let alone being light!

[Ottoman]

id love to see an SR20 swapped into an FC or FD!

SR's are great motors, built well.. and can handle alot of beating.. let alone being light!


it's been done.. and they got flamed to hell and back.. why?

SR20 is 205HP stock

13bT from Fc is 210hp

13B-REW on the FD is 255hp

FD can make 360rwhp on stock twins...


SR valvetrain does not cope well with High revs either..


why would you take a step down?

or if u had a FC.. why would u spend so much time and money and effort.. into taking out one engine and putting in another of equal performance? not like it'll be lighter than the 13b.. or more compact...


besides the fact u can probably never register the car again..

and if u don't happen to have an full SR20 swap and a Full FC or FD rolling chassis laying around...

why would someone go through all the trouble?

[KWT^350z]

guys
as Ottoman say any swap need modified, so i should go with the easiest way to get my target

and as you know guys by now ever one work on 2jz but no one work on rotary

and sp engineering do lovely swap for 2jz and one of my friend finish his 2jz swap and he is really happey with it

please every one see the line and you will know what i mean:

[ED]

Aslawi, i dont think u can still call that thing an RX7.

[Ottoman]

Aslawi, i dont think u can still call that thing an RX7.


that RX7.. the engine is so tall that u can't close the hood ..

and because it's so deep.. the steering rack had to be moved so far..

the bump steer is crazy..

basically the only thing the car do is go in a straight line...

it can't turn at all...



which was what the FD was made to do... Carve the corners..

[Ottoman]

and as you know guys by now ever one work on 2jz but no one work on rotary




Is the engine in it now Blown or is it running?

if u don't want the engine and gear I might take it off ur hands

[KWT^350z]

Ottoman

the engine still run with some electric problem (gauges lights and dash problem)

guys really dont know what should i do

i love this car, but in the same time i afraid from the engine

every one in kuwait said that the engine will be over heat + over weather = easy blow

Ottoman, i dont what to keep the car only as vase in my house

i want to drive it with all the time, and that is the main cause why i want to swap the engine

thanks

[ED]

3aslawy, bee3ha 3aly of 5ith lak Supra :P

[Ottoman]

so do u think putting in a 2JZ will make your gauges work?


gauge and dash is probably just some fuses or wiring.. not a big deal..


just do the reliability mods first.. and you wont have to worry about it..

Get a Koyo Radiator, upgrade the intercooler, make sure you have dual oil coolers (i don't know if yours does cuz it didn't come on touring models, but it did on the R1 like mine)

get a power FC,

get a bunch of gauges to watch the health of your engine (boost, water temp, oil temp, EGT)

change the stock down pipe with the crappy Cat in it... and heat wrap it..

change the stock AST to an aluminum one..

use a good coolant...

remove the air pump and get the pulley kit..

and you wont have any problems... and u can enjoy the car...

make sure the fuel injectors are clean and working well..

re-wire the Fuel pump to get full voltage..

make sure you have good grounds..

if u try rushing and start modding and raising the boost adn stuff without reliability first.. of course u will risk damaging the engine...

doing simple things first will help minimize the chances of anything going wrong..

listening to ignorant ppl who have no rotary experience wont help

they sell RX8's in Kuwait and Qatar Right?

they had RX7's and 8's in Arizona and California...

so obviously it's not impossible...

u wont know unless u try

all turbo cars behave the same.. the rotary aint different.. its just fragile int he wrong hands and it cant handle knock.

easy, let the motor run cooler.. im sure ur fuel is better than ours in bahrain.. so thats a plus, and if u wanna drive it everyday.. keep the boost on the low and retard some timing! not alot.. the engine can overheat with excessive timing retard!

[KWT^350z]

by the way my car engine is modified

exhaust, diwn pipe, sequantial, injecters, intake, intercooler, blow off valve, boost & fuel pressure gauges, power FC, and others

thanks

[Splash]

just make sure u do it step by step. Don't just jump to high HP setups! Do it gradually and learn the system. Things will go wrong when is done at once.

The way I see it, 400whp is the most fun hp to have on an RX7 (Reliable, controlable and easier to achieve)

[maXmood]

orange looks nicer imo..

[KWT^350z]

yes ZEX i was talking about the turbos

Splash i use to have 520 RWHP 350Z and you know that and i was looking forward, but in my RX7 i want only the feeling of 520 RWHP in 350Z, and i will do it step by step bo 3aziz

thank you thelord, nice choose

[Splash]

But bare in mind that the FD is a lighter car. So, by 400whp it could equal the feeling of a 500whp heavier car.

[Pink Fluff]

I still think its a bad idea for your to build a rotary engine.

[ED]

I still think its a bad idea for your to build a rotary engine.
you don't really build it, its just porting and new seals!!

ok Im just being an ass fluffy, I love Samboosa (rotary), i think they really seprate those who know how to take care of a car, yet take it to the limit when they feel like it, and those who just shift to D and drive.

[Pink Fluff]

Sarz, KWT^350z does not baby a car and hence my advice to go for something other than a rotary. I agree that a rotary can be made reliable.. and that they are a blast to drive.

The best way to go in my opinion is to do an LS1 swap.

How do u plan on passing regisitration and inspection?

do u know u have to send your subframe to them for modifying

a T56 tranny alone goes for 700-1000bd

your average LS1 swap is gonna cost 25-35,000 dollars
and your gonna kill the resale value..

and potentially make the car no longer road legal..


u'd be better off buying someone elses Ls1 swapped FD from the states and save yourself alot of time and money..


and in the end.. the car is gonna sound like $hit..

I think it's a no brainer 2nd choice myself

[ED]

otto, a V8 is a V8 don't BS ur self.

remmeber what u said when I asked you how would a modefide samboosa sound like?

Like a cammed LS1, thats whay you said.

:D

[Ottoman]

no man.. Euro V8 with DOHC head sound completely Diff than an american pushrod V8..

my friend has an Audi S4... 4.2 liters 340hp.. i've been with him many times in the car.. the sound is Waaaayyy diff...


hehe now your twisting my words :P

I said a ported rotary IDLES like a LS1 and revs and sounds like a motorbike at WOT :p

[Splash]

why do people hate rotaries?

I think it could be really challenging to own one (or in some cases 3:D)

[Pink Fluff]

Not hate splash.. more a matter of practicality.. A rotary is nice to have, but for KWT350 it would not be practical. That is besides the fact that very few people in this region work on rotaries.

splashy..

ppl fear what they don't understand

ppl are lazy and try to take the easy way out.. rather than trying to learn..

[Pink Fluff]

Ottoman, I applaud your dedication to the rotary engine.. and I really respect the work you have done.. I also as stated before think rotary engines are great.. Now in all seriousness, would you recommend a rotary to someone who doesn’t know how it works and is miles away from anyone who can fix it,, let alone the fact that he wants 600hp from it??? At least a piston engine is relatively easy to fix and frankly bullet proof.

[Ottoman]

in Bahrain.. most of the guys who make "serious" power from their piston engines are no diff..

most of them are crate engines from the States as well

Turbo S2k motors, AMS 4g63 motors, countless numbers of american V8 engines as well always coming in...

the same can apply for rotary.. the short block is tiny... why not bring a "bullet proof" rotary the same way?


the point is there's not many Home brew bahraini engines that are "bullet proof" as you say... i've seen many 1JZ 2JZ and RB's and even V8's coming apart at the drag


whether it's a Piston or a rotor... high HP motors built in Bahrain don't last...period...

guys, sorry to say that i did and i`ll not think to swap my rotary to LS1 cause i want really to have japanes car... that what i understand

not because i heat american cars, but really if i want to swap to LS1 it will be easier to me to buy C5 from Kuwait for 4500-5500 KD and dont brake my head in swaping

and not that impportant to have 600HP, i bought the RX7 cause i like its look, and if i want to work on the engine ill do one of two

either swap to 2jz with 6 speed gear, or ill work on my rotary step by step and i`ll be more than happy if i get 450 RWHP on the Dyno

so Ottoman make your self ready as soon as i finish from the looking ill bring the car for you to build it right and get my target

thanks all

nice project u got on there, all i say is stick with ottoman step by step ... i'm sure he's the only guy around that knows what he's talking about .. :up:

in Bahrain.. most of the guys who make "serious" power from their piston engines are no diff..

there's no such thing as a "bullet proof" rotary thats why.

even the toughest rotary engine cant handle 1 degree of knock. i overboosted once on my 2jz, it was knocking so hard the RPM's stuck at 5k at WOT and the whole car was shaking!.. bashar was with me in the car remember??.. according to u, u could hear the detonation all the way at ur place (awali).. and we were close to the roundabout close to 9a5eer! it survived!

now tell me.. if all the rotary mechanics in the world came together.. can they build an engine that can handle that much abuse? no, it comes back to basic rotary engine design! i must admit, a properly tuned rotary can last.. but, whos gonna properly tune it here?? and on our gas??

u cant build it right man.. with a rotary ur stuck with what u get.. there are no "racing rotors" or.. "racing housings" just tougher apex seals.. and tbh its a small strip of metal.. no matter how tough it is.. it will still fail with detonation and knock.

and about building it.. well, alot of ppl have opened rotary engines.. not one has been closed and fired up yet in bahrain! if anything happens just get a halfcut!

well there are some aussies that would disagree...

they have some guys out there.. using 3mm seals made of some weird materials..

they claim the seals will bend at most.. but never break...

but I have no personal experience with them myself...

btw.. there are Racing Rotors, and Cranks.. but the housings and irons staystock.. (they're not really a weak point to begin with after you've used an engine stud kit) but the american community doesn't use them much...

it's the guys down under that have taken Rotors to a whole new level...

[SAMoloGY]

go and ask them how many motors they change each season! all high power motors have a short life, im not just picking on rotaries here!

[Ottoman]

indeed..

if u wanna play.. u gotta pay...

only difference is to build a "race" rotary requires only a hand full of aftermarket parts.. and a porting tool HEHE :P


at that level of competition they can afford it anyway..


but if ur looking for a disposable engine.. than 2JZ is the way to go.. at only 300bd a motor.. why bother yourself rebuilding..

yester day i was with Ottoman and i decide with him to keep my rotary engine for a while
