That kinda also looks like a BMW theme. It looks good, but I would probably go with a base color of yellow, the hood, roof, and wing would be natural carbon, and above the rear wheels would be the Dahm logo from the OG shirts but in red letters. I think that would be pretty iconic considering the history of the Rx7 and the fact that it'll be doing a hill climb. It's so iconic that I'm willing to bet people will know where this idea came from without me having mentioned it. Oh, and if I had to pick which yellow, I'd say the Diablo yellow. If I didn't do anything with either of those ideas, I would cover the car in that test car camouflage lol.

@rotaryperfection Месяц назад

Rob, moving the 20b back is exactly how this swap should be if you wanna maintain factory balance and polar moment. I simply left the stock subframe bolted on to keep alignment and cut up and removed the back half to drop in the engine. Then I beat the hell out of the firewall to round it out to make room for the bell housing to slide back. Pounding the firewall was how Autotech did it years ago so I just copied them. I finally just built the rear half of the subframe to fit it. Was super easy without building a whole new subframe however, I wish I had enough room to fit the Mazda racing dry sump front cover. My engine sits behind the stock rack with 1/4" clearance. That's how I did mine. I was also able to relocate the shifter into the front compartment on the stock fd tranny. Year later, I bought a T-56 out of a 2005 CST-V with the tripple cone syncros. This transmission has a pedestal type shifter housing that I was able to move forward to stock interior position. I've done the mockup for fitment but haven't fully installed that tranny yet. You're gonna love how much better the FD handles after moving that engine down and back.

@aserta Месяц назад

Move the work piece to the far end that's the least sloppy on that table. That said, you could bring the slop to manageable levels depending on how worn (saddle style) the mill table ways are. IMO, worth taking that table apart just so you can clean decades of grime and schmutz out. While you're at it, you can figure out where the slop is. On that kind of a mill, you don't need to be hyper precise about it.

@arrivendrive6831 Месяц назад

Awesome stuff Rob. This is top level stuff and real engineering to make something work properly. There are many build cars but most are just show peices that dont work properly after the mods. Pushing the engine back further and lower makes perfect performance sense. I am only wondering why not stock mount or vmount for intercooler setup. Big front mount intercooler shoves too much wieght forward in the car. I really want to do a 20b conversion on my street FD but i dont want to cut the firewall. I do want to push it back like Rob to make sure it sits properly in the car. I wonder if it is possible.

@LoudGuitar14 Месяц назад

When you use dry ice to get rid of sound deadening use more dry ice. I go for 2 blocks min and break it up enough to cover a whole section. If you do that the whole section of deadening will come up as more or less a single piece without needing to hammer and chisel anything. Quick and less work in my opinion having done this on several race cars now.
