can this be true.

[13Bracer]

ok well last night me and my friend were messing around on the road and we decided to hav a few races.
he has a 02 stock s2000.
i have a 93 fd with non sequential turbo setup. and catback exhaust.
everytime we raced he was right on my ass!!! i was for sure i would pull away but i didnt!! WTF
i think there is something wron g with my car.
or are s2000 really that quick?

[OneSlow5pt0]

that fools runnin a honda 2000 u should have won,lol

[Lotte]

Damn. Something is wrong with it. I mean I'm no rotary master, but it's a S2000 (not saying anything bad about the S2000). Are the turbos boosting correctly? Maybe a vaccum leak? Ask Five Star Tuning I suppose.

[OneSlow5pt0]

2000 arnt bad cars though

[13Bracer]

yeah i think i have a vaccum leak cause my boost gauge is showing pretty much none whatsoever.
im takinf it to five star on monday to see what up!!!!
i was fuckin pissed though!!!
damn and he thought he was the shit to!!!

[David88vert]

If you are running non-seq you are probably only running around a low 14.

[Lotte]

Well if you go to Mike , you'll see my 7. Well after you get it fixed he'll know what's up (not saying anything bad about the S2000, love those cars. I wouldn't mind those for a daily driver.)

[Lotte]

I have to bring some parts to Five Star Monday too. So maybe I'll meet you there and see your 7. :)

[Twinnos]

yeah, probably a boost problem.

[Lotte]

Did you find out what the problem was?

[13Bracer]

yeah i need to get a boost controller.
my 7 is only pushing 5psi.
when it should be 10 so then it will be up to par.
then my oil pan is leaking so i need to get a new one.
thats pretty much it.

^oh yeah man saw your car....shits fire man!!!! looks good
hey how much do you want for the intake?
we tried to call you when i was down there. let me know.


thanks to five star.
good guy who knows his shit:goodjob:

[Lotte]

I am getting the Boost Controller next besides the Fuel Mods and Pulleys. Did you decide which company your getting your Oil Pan from? I was up there earlier to drop off some parts. I was looking forward to see your 7, but I had to go to work. Sorry, I was at work so I couldn't pick up the phone. I don't know if I want to sell you the Intake because it looks pretty old. I don't want to sell you a crappy Intake. But Mike is going to look at it tomorrow to see if it's still good, he also mentioned that he has a cleaning kit for it. If he says that it's still good then probaly like $50.

[13Bracer]

yeah if he still says its good ill probably buy it from you then.
yeah the oil pan ive been trying to find a place that seals them but i can seem to find to many?
if you know anywhere that sells them let me know.
thanks

I have a MY01 s2k. just remember it will run mid 13's stock and if you are going from a roll the 4.10's will help him hit vtec pretty quick. You may beat him from a dig though.

[Lotte]

Pineapple Racing has a pretty good Aluminum Oil Pan. I was thinking of buying the Oil Pan from them, but it's pretty expensive. $425.

Should beat him period, I've seen stock 7s in the high 12's. And from a roll, VTEC has nowhere near the effect on the top end as two turbos do.

[Lotte]

You must be one heck of a driver. I wouldn't be able to hit mid 13's with a stock S2k.

definitely expensive, but it beats dripping oil everywhere. if you find one cheaper let me know.

[Lotte]

They used to have the group buy on the rx7club with the Oil Pan for $399, but I called today if it's still going on and they said they stopped it.

nice man thanks for the help:goodjob:

[Lotte]

No problem. Just trying to help out another 7. Did you hear anything from Mike if the Intake was good or not? I'll be going up there tomorrow to drop off my emission sheet and a Water Pump. So I guess I'll find out tomorrow.

[Five*Star*]

I didn't take the time to look at it today, but i know it is still in good useable condition. It will get the job done. i guess i will bring my cleaner/oiler to work with me.


Matt, I pressure washed your engine today because i was bored and I like working on clean engines anyway... it looks good. i will be at work for the rest of the week until Saturday, so stop by whenever.

[13Bracer]

:werd:

[Lotte]

Which site do you order from 13Bracer?

[13Bracer]

i went ahead and orderd it all from rx7store.net.
if i looked around i proly could have found it cheaper but i was tired.hah

[Lotte]

Don't be surprised if the part's comes in seperate. I mean the Radiator and Coolant Hoses came in fast, now a couple of day's later my Vaccum Hoses just came. I still haven't received other parts of my order that I placed at the same time.

[Lotte]

Still the RX7store is pretty cheap though. :goodjob:

[13Bracer]

for what? :police:

[13Bracer]

for speeding...89 in a 45:cry::no::doh:

[Lotte]

How much was the ticket? Where did you get pulled over at?

[13Bracer]

it doesnt say on the ticket..i have to go to court in april.
this was up in gainesville

[Five*Star*]

One stock S2k has hit a 13.6 that I know of, but one guy ran a 13.0 in a stock FD way back when. So, the FD is still a good bit faster, and doesn't need to be in vtec to be fast.... the first turbo spools between 2000-2500, and at 4500 the secondary kicks in and the car is really moving.

Ouch, I got a laying drag ticket 2 christmas eve's ago for getting sideways in my FD. It was in oakwood, and the ticket was steep. I hope your over 21 man! :eek:

HOLY SMOKES!

[13Bracer]

[Lotte]

Good luck with the ticket. Are you still going to wait for the intake?

[13Bracer]

yeah more then likely ill get it...just name a price....
i will be down there soon just waiting to get the rest of my stuff.
its just like you said orderd all of my stuff at the same time and so far i have my boost controller and thats it..hahah let me know how much you want for it:goodjob:

[Lotte]

Yep, I'm telling you man. What's the point of just sending one part at a time. :thinking: Well just shoot me a reasonable offer. And whenever you decide to go to Mike just tell me and we'll meet up.

ok and hey i found these greddy oil pans for pretty cheap?
http://www.horsepowerfreaks.com/price/Mazda/RX7_93-95/Greddy/Engine/Oil_Pans

[Lotte]

I ordered the Brake kit from them that consist of Rotors, Brake Lines, and Pads. They only sent me the pads. Can't fix my brakes without everything. :no:

[Lotte]

Nice find. :goodjob: I should've ordered my Radiator from them, it's much cheaper. :doh: I will actually order the Oil Pan from them.:D

[13Bracer]

Nice find. :goodjob: I should've ordered my Radiator from them, it's much cheaper. :doh: I will actually order the Oil Pan from them.:D
hahah thanks yeah im about to order the oil pan from ther as well:goodjob:

[Lotte]

They have a pretty good selection on the site too. Lot's of new things I didn't see on the other sites.

[13Bracer]

yeah ill proly end up ordering a bunch of stuff from them besides the oil pan

[Lotte]

Some part's are cheaper than other sites, but some aren't. I have to open like three other sites and find out. Do you have any good experience with Horsepowerfreaks? i.e. good customer service or fast shipping?

[13Bracer]

no but ive heard that they ship pretty fast and are pretty good.

[Lotte]

Thanks. Hopefully if I do plan on ordering from them, my shipment will come all at once.

[13Bracer]

hahah hell yeah i know huh!!!:lmfao::lmfao::lmfao:

[Lotte]

Yeah man. I gotta start ordering from a different website, but damn the low prices they have. :D
