Sounds very nice. I know what you mean about the intake. Adrian's 48 IDA is almost louder than his (very loud) exhaust. What's the overall sound level like on yours? Tolerable?

Whizbang 04-24-2009 03:26 PM

i found it tolerable. The people who rent the apt above the marathon don't (they live above a service station for christ sakes!!!).

Having some issues i am having a hard time addressing so i have not done more than stumble the car around.

well i am having some issues with the megasquirt that i am trying to resolve. Most important of which is the fact that once the 02 sensor starts functioning, it will go inactive and stick at 12.10 afr. While at the same time the Manifold Air Temp will go from reading normal to telling me its seeing 15F. Something is askew

That and the tuning is still way off with the accel enrichment and the VE

Whizbang 04-25-2009 03:14 PM

Probably wont be able to get the car up to shape before i leave monday. But i need to solve the issue with the 02 and the IAT and start getting the accel enrichment sorted out.

well the car is chilling at my Grandmothers til i get posted at my active duty station. It does start right up now though! I have video to prove this fact!

But still needs plenty of tuning.

insignificant update:

Car now has plates! Historical to be specific.

So my wife has taken the initiative to get the rx7 functioning. Peejay came out and fix some problems that have been plaguing me. For starters the solved the mystery of the burning out taches which was a switched up wire i mislabeled. Two, the distributor has some loose internal wiring so he dealt with that. Immediately running better.

That said he has not had time to get the tuning and hopefully he will soon. BUT my wife has spent the last week power learning Megasquirt, rotaries and tuning as best as she can and is actually trying to road tune the car as we speak. Which is pretty much awesome.

Yes i have a lot of trust in my wife lol

That is the definition of a keeper wife;) Kudos to you guys. should be nice to have it all worked out soon enough

Whizbang 09-09-2009 10:18 PM

even got pulled over for the first time, ha!

Reverse lights were wigging out its seemed. eh, something else to deal with.

but the car is running increasingly better. still breaking up a bit at high rpms though

Whizbang 09-12-2009 07:06 PM

so Pete worked miracles. But the idler arms is FUBAR to the point it warranted a video

need RX7 09-12-2009 07:45 PM

:rofl:

Whizbang 09-12-2009 11:16 PM

Soo word is in the car is running well enough that i know could stand a good wideband tune and actually see what power i can get out of it.

Whizbang 09-16-2009 05:52 PM

Car is running good!!!

even managed to get itself in and back out of the Cleveland impound lot....lol.

Im hoping to get some new media soon. The idler arm is getting replaced today and hopefully the fenders will be rolled soon. Other than that its ready to enjoy and refine. Im sure the next step is some wideband tuning.

I always loved the stance and the FI setup on this car. Glad to see she's cooperating a little now. Beautiful ride :icon_tup:

Whizbang 09-16-2009 08:25 PM
