Hehe yeah I like to think that Supra's, RX-7's, MR2's etc are generally the least ricey imports out there, as they were built to be true performers.

I don't think you can really say one car is better then the other, it all depends on the application.

I guess this just started because Nashman is going against everything that's ever been said about RX-7's. RX-7's are known for their excellent handling, supra's are known for there highway killing. I just don't understand how these could be questioned. Review after review (both amature and proffesional drivers) seem to say the same things.

Woohoo, I'm a post whore today. That's what happens when you get a day off. :)

Anyways, back to the topic of RX-7's!

What can I do to shave some more weight off my ride without spending gobs of cash? Oh and before you suggest it, I love my PS, so don't even think about it! :p

I need more power, gotta get that race pipe! I was shocked when that 626 kept up with me. It's a 2 door LX turbo, pretty much stock. Punched cat, K&N filter and running a little extra boost. We're both new standard drivers, I've got a little more experience though. Oh well, he's mine on the high way. :)

Hey EightTrack

I saw your webpage that you posted in your sig.Nice Rex man!!!

Thanks man.

I wanna see your 1st gen!

Sorry,no pics right now!I'll post some one of these days.

welli may ahve come on strong but no has given any thing good about supra i gave good hoots ot the rx7 i like em but i just don't like the turbos

i whould die to ahve gregs car as long as my supra


each car has it own drive ablity

rex good some places suck in others supra's are good in some places and bad in others


and weight will pull more g's as long as the setion is made for the car wiht of car will give it more g's

teh supra is great race car but i whould rather take the rex to the auto x caues of sharp coners


i never hack or said they where bere in any casues but all in the end if you taly all the points up there just about the same

there was like some mag that test both and said that very thing


if i was ot choose i whould choose the rex for auto x and the supra for raceing on track

and that what that guy said but it is his own 2 cents




now on to the 6262 come on greg you can't let thart famly car get you upgrade do some thig whiht your gearing it so long i find why they did it i do not know but i have bean playing around whiht gears and i can get you car to go bit faster

i still say super carge that sucker but just don't pass me i don't wan tot sell my leg in oder to keep up whiht you

as for weight n you car humm that is tought you riped just about every thign out of your car seat's are really light far as i know of


i know 2 thing emty you glove box and don't hall my ass arounf ehhhe but i do give you better tration


i whould say gearing is you down fall thou but i bean plaing whiht gears and if you put 4.33 or so on you will goet more turq but you looose on teh upper end



hell i got 430 in my car an dit goes though gears justt he wya i want it

Didn't all RX-7's come with the same gear ratio except for the Gtu?

How can I get a tighter gear ratio? I'm willing to sacrifice a bit of top end.

Super charge or streetport some day. if my engine blows, I'd most likely get a street port.

I bought a N/A knowing they weren't super fast. I'm happy with it. I just really prefer the feel of an N/A.

u can buy 4.30 gears out of a GTU.. that will help a lot.. ditch the AC , PS = it is so easy unless your a 80pound pussy women.. so easy!!.. ditch airpump and get exahaust.. the stock myfflers weight 50 pounds each.. remove heat shields u dont need.. remove a couple tow hooks on the back they are 20 pounds each.. shit like that!!

well actually the rx7 is 800 pounds lighter cause they weight 2800 lbs and u said the supra is 3500 lbs..and also our gear ratio is very very good stock i dunno what shit u r talking about..

60 km/h 1st
110 km/h 2nd
150 km/h 3rd
220 km/h 4th
260 km/h 5th

first gear might be 80 km/h i forget...those are all numbers i have done in my car..o yea 5th gear sucks i had to do that another time on a huge mother bitch straight strech

It might be harder than you think to get Nashman to do this because I don't think any of us what to do jail time for murder(even though we've all thought about it).

Tyler, maybe you might want to pick another CART driver that's still alive.

the 88/89-92 Mazda 626 LX/GT sedan/MX-6 GT coupe and the Ford Probe GT all use a 2.2L turbocharged inline 4 with 145hp and 190 lb/ft. they can be very easily upgraded to put out some pretty good power. mmmturbo.
don't worry Greg, my friend in his 300ZX TT was surprised by one a few years back.

That makes me feel a little better. :D

that i know of is the 626 has 120 hp and 150 turq plus he is pushign more boost the stock i think cause has screw i find them bad for turbos well at lest for my car but other i ahve no clue


and what i ment by i don't care for the gears is there to bloody long shorten em bit and use 5 th may free some turq up that how honda's do it


the type s rsx is 6 speed and the reg vertion has 5 speed

and power diff between the cars are not that much


4.30 whould do alot free up lost turq but your zero to 60 time will drop but the 1/4 mile will be the same



i have 4.30 in my car and walk away from most supra's when i at lower boost as well just caue sof my gearing but there bad point soon as i hit around 140 bang there that other supra right now my tail and most likly even whiht me caues his small ass gears got em there

if anything i want my 0-60 to be faster and my top end to be lower

i am looking for a used RX-7 anyone for sale?

no way!!!!!

Everythings for sale.... for a price. :D

I know of a few in Victoria. What year do you want? What's your price range? N/A or turbo?

i think he said the engine was put in by mazda. his cell number is 216-3457, his name is Mike, tell him Toby (me) told you about the car.

Hey guys, do I really need my ftp's? Just wondering cause I was going to get a new one to replace my fogged one but I might just paint them the same color as my car so I don't have to piss around with em. :D

you dont need them.. put a tint on them...! that would look pretty good!

i gona drive my car like a sprint now i lerned my lesson i got ticket for doing 26 over in a 90 zone on the highway

heres a qestion hows a auto rex vs a 5 spd rex in drag

na and turbo

I've heard the auto's are quite sluggish... but that's all I know. :)

autos blow ass. the trannys are so weak.... dont even bother compareing them :)

remmber auot will never ever make mistake

auto turbo are faster then the 5 spd

na i thint he 5 spd is fast caues of gearing and the w58 trans was made not to be jerky that much and rev high caues of dri9ve confort


just remmber if your agaist an auto don;t make mistake or you will loose


plus you can brake boost whiht an auto
