The age old question…how big of a motor can you slap in the smallest car you can find? On this episode of Stay Tuned, the guys go on a roadtrip to pick up Tony’s latest Facebook Marketplace purchase - a 1987 Mazda RX7 roller that he scooped for a cool $1,500! Do they keep it JDM original and put a screaming’ high RPM rotary back in it? Do they throw caution to the wind and put a big V8 in it and do hellacious burnouts? Stay Tuned to find out!

Thanks for preserving the vibe of stay tuned. Just some dudes in the garage doing things. Feels like doing shithead stuff with my buddies.

@itwasanewdayyesterday2586 Год назад

@David-jm7mq Год назад

Watching you guys takes me (way) back to the late 60's when three of us, myself, best friend David and his uncle Sammy, replaced a 1958 Ford Fairlane 500 352 cu inch with a Ford Police Interceptor 406 cu inch monster. It had Mickey Thompson heads, Edelbrock intake manifold, with a Holley 850 cfm double pumper carburetor,. We didn't have to worry about how many MPG we got. We went through several sets of rear tires getting the tuning just right. David's dad owned a Used Car lot with garage space in the back. It was a blast. Thanks for taking me back.

@drewdavis239 Год назад

Thanks for taking me with you on that memory trip. Good times!

@hendo337 Год назад

I didn't know the 406 was sold as a Police engine, thought they only got the 390 and 428 until the 429 and 460 came along.

@David-jm7mq Год назад

@@hendo337 Good Lord hendo337, you're really taxing my memory. The engine came out of a wrecked 1962-63 Galaxie 500 police cruiser. It came with a Holley triple carb setup. We changed it out for the Edelbrock intake manifold with the Holley 850 because we liked the looks of it better than the triple setup, plus, the big Holley was easier to set up and maintain. You are right in that the majority of Police cruisers came with the 390 Interceptor engine. Now whether different police jurisdictions could order a Galaxie with the 406 setup, I don't know.. I just remember what we took the engine out of. I do know that the 406 was short lived and was replaced by I guess the 427-428. I also am pretty sure that the 406 was used for a short time in NASCAR before being replaced with the 427.

@DroneStrike1776 Год назад

My first real car was a 1988 Mazda RX7 GXL. I found myself taking the bus to school way too often because it kept breaking down. Pushing carts and stocking shelves in the 90s just to dump it all into the money pit RX7. But it was fun as hell when it worked.

I had an 87 Turbo II with an LT1 and T56 in it. I outfitted it with all the best suspension mods and it was just magnificent. One of the most controllable, yet completely violent cars I've ever experienced. I miss it!

@justinwise6950 Год назад

That thing is rowdy! Such a relatable build, I feel like I could recreate it. After so many years of watching other programs where they just throw tons of money at something like it was nothing, it is refreshing to see this kind of build.

@tomjackman8531 Год назад

That version of the RX7 I've always liked, bit of Initial D reference for those that know, but for those older, lovely car. Needs a 3 rotor in it from random places knocked together like that V8.... I mean it could be a thing right if you find rotor housings across the US. Think either Master Dahm or the Vargas brothers would be worth a try.

@FrankBullitt390 Год назад

20 years ago in an issue of popular hot rodding there was a black Mitsubishi Starion / Dodge conquest with that GN swap and the full pro touring treatment, before it was even a thing. To this day it was the coolest starion I've ever seen.

@davidvaughn7778 Год назад

@Frank Bullitt those Starion/Conquest cars are still damn good-looking cars. Too bad any that are worth having are out of my budget.

@tima6549 Год назад

I had a similar love affair with rotarys just out of high school. I was a Mopar guy through and through and had a 72 Duster with a 318. But I wanted a sporty daily to drive once I graduated. I had my heart on a 280 Z but ended up buying a 79 RX-7. I drove that thing for a couple years and loved it, but it was very unreliable. But I loved that motor. I later bought two more, the last one with a JDM 12A that really ripped! They're so expensive to work on but they handle and drive so well. Still cool.

@panos75 Год назад

You guys should really build a high revving 302 for this thing!

@daxtonbrown Год назад

I've got a rebuilt 327 finally in my 67 Camaro, with a lot of the same parts. Just need tires and I can try it out. Should be as rowdy as this.

@DangerousDan666 Год назад

My present (and first) project right now, is a 2004 RX-8 that I'm putting a LS 408 in it. I got the car for 1100$ (CAD), no engine, the rest of the car is complete. The 408 should put out around 500-600 HP N/A, but its build to take boost and the rotating assembly is rated to +1200 HP. 6l90e behind it. 2007 Ford explorer diff 8.8 . It not a cheap build (I'll have about 15 000$ just in the engine) but I'm at an age that I don't think I'll have the time and/or the budget to take that kind of project again. So I'm making it once, I want it right the first time 😉

@jcham979 Год назад

I just picked up a 1990 Mazda RX-7 recently (N/A). After eventually sending the Apex seals into low orbit, I'm leaning towards 2.3L Duratec/MZ-R swap if a rebuild isn't possible. Figure it keeps it in the Mazda family, can throw a little boost on it and enjoy some track days. I wish the LS was less practical because it's hard to justify another engine for the same cost, performance, and parts availability... but man I just hate the sound of them for some reason.

@MrBblhed Год назад

It would have been really cool if you explained why you have to attach the torque converter to the transmission before attaching it to the flywheel. That doesn't need to be a life lesson for first timers.

The first rx7 turbo you purchased in North Carolina I think I used to own from 1988-1994. The car was originally blue, then painted white in 1992, had a kaminari rear spoiler, airdam, and rear bumper valence. The car had an HKS downpipe and resonated midpipe, 15" enkei 92 mesh wheels, HKS air intake, the hks Fcon, and a pioneer stereo. The car actually had a turbo with an upgraded compressor wheel as well. The car had several other performance parts prior to when I sold it in 1994. Let me know if this was my old car.

In high school 1996 I flew from NW Arkansas to San Antonio TX. All to buy a worn out 1983 Toyota Celica GTS. I loved that car Now I'd like to find another for those nostalgia feels. Mine probably had half the HP with all the blowby it had. It started rod knocking at 298k. I've always liked the Rx7s as well, just never had one.
