the best view of the car
sorry bout the low quality, it was the only time i had to shoot some pictures and it was rather dark.
more common view of the car- ;D
the best part of the car...
well, i'd had about enough fun with the 86. i figured it was about time to get somethin faster and hopefully better looking. just when i thought that i would never have enough money to get what i wanted and started to purchase turbo merchandise for the 86, i found this. i've decided to add another FC to my growing collection. This one makes # 4. its an 88 Turbo II. this isnt twin turbo for all the confused people out there, turbo II just means its the second generation of turbo'd RX7's, america never got the first gen turbo. twins didnt come into production until 93. i stumbled across it by means of colby. it was built by a friend of ours who basicly wont drive a car unless its a second gen RX7. he sold it to a kid in raliegh last summer for 6500 and when the kid had beat it nearly to death he decided that he wanted mommy and daddy to buy him something new. i've since got nearly all the problems fixed. only things needed now are a few minor electricals(ie- radio antenna and other small BS)so far mods include-
Racing beat full exhaust(3in turbo back-downpipe, presilencer, and then into 2 dual 2 in mufflers.)
Turbo inlet duct
Greddy type S BOV
4 pt strut bar
720cc secondary injectors
apexi SAFC II
greddy turbo timer
ported intake manifold
modified throttle body
all emissions removed
RTEK 1.7 ECU upgrade
ACT lightweight flywheel
ACT street strip clutch disk
ACT heavy duty pressure plate
heavy duty rear differential mount
Dyno'd 245@ the rear wheels before computer, clutch, and flywheel.
The car is very quick. I've been a best of 8.70 at roxboro. im making the traps in the low 80's which is good enough for some really low 8 second 1/8 mile passes. traction is the only problem. its all clutch through the 60 ft. with some slicks, and givin it more motor than clutch, it would probably go 8.1-8.3. this is equivalent to a very low 13 in the 1/4.
my future plans include-
4 pt roll cage, tinted windows, and maybe some wheels. its fast enough to get you in trouble, and make some mustangs mad.
