  1. I used stock mount points, and made ear mounts out of 16ga steel. Angle grinder and a drill are all you need. Maybe a pair of vice and a hammer to bend it into shape. I used stock 90* adjustable bends that stock gauges mount to, and stock screw. voila. Cost in parts? Whatever a 12"x12" 16ga steel sheet costs at your local hardware store. I'll also line the outer edges with black weatherstripping to prevent rattling and to make a good seal.
  2. wow, awesome deal. I got the same one for 240, i think. never used, just unpacked
  3. Do I need gas to weld stainless, or can I do wirefeed without gas? What, no one is interested in the swap?
  4. man, I was laughing my ass off. I need to catch the daily show rerun tonight to see how much material they had to work with... I mean, it was PRICELESS. They have so much material, it could last them 3 years
  5. I appreciate John's help, I might be sending him the exact measurements in cad with parts to weld up...but he's still 400 miles away and it's a hit/miss with welding the manifold together for a proper fit. John C., can stainless be tacked together with regular wirefeed mig? Is it going to leave some ugly residue?Maybe I'll con Jumbo240ez to help out with lures of free beer....
  6. no. no regular manifold would fit, otherwise I would have gotten this done and over with. all FC/FD turbo manifolds sold commercially move the turbo forward and to the left. Mine needs to tuck in and move towards the back of the engine. Or a foot forward. I already have the flanges, so that's not an issue.
  7. btw, if anyone knows competative not-so-expensive welders in bay area, let me know

  9. The guy who was going to be doing the welding is telling me that he's booked up through all of october and possibly november (he's doing it at 45/hr), and the only weekend available is this weekend. Unfortunately, my divided flange hasn't arrived yet, and a server at work took a crap. I was working on it until 11pm last night, and I have to do more work tonight, which means I can't get the car towed to his shop to get stuff done (more scheduling bs that'll require 3 more paragraphs) The problem being welding up the manifod and designing it on the fly. I have a general idea, and a ducttaped mockup (sort of) to go with it. I'm getting $1,000 and up quotes for the manifold design, even though it's pretty simple, it just needs to be robust enough to hold the turbo and take abuse. That's even with materials provided. Shoot me a PM Thanks, -alex
  10. I am considering scrapping the rotary project because I'm having a difficult time with [cost effective] welding and design of the turbo manifold at the moment, and because of that the project is taking 3x longer than it should have. Would anyone be interested in picking up where I left off? parts: -13b-re 2 rotor cosmo motor. Looks like it was rebuilt before I bought it. Oilpan gasket, oilpump chain, and front cover gaskets have been replaced. motor has compression, and has been lubed with ATF and turned on a regular basis. Has custom mounts for datsun 240-280z. comes with series 5 rx7 flywheel that needs resurfacing -2 rx7 turbo transmissions -brand new garrett t04s turbo, oil cooled only. 60-1 wheel, .7 a/r cold, .84/ar divided hot, p trim exhaust. -custom engine side exhaust flange for manifold. -stock twin turbos, if anyone wants to use them -brand new in box ACT street/strip heavy duty clutch -rx7 oil cooler -small npr intercooler, 20x8.5x2 core, 2.5" outlets -microtech LT8S ecu, brand new in box, manual, harness, fuse plug, etc. -magnacore 10mm wires -HKS sequential blow off valve -brand new tial 44mm wastegate with 11.86psi spring and v-band clamps -misc. stainless steel piping, 45 and 90* bends in schedule 10 304ss, 1.9" o.d, 1.682 i.d. to make exhaust manifold , 3" bends to make downpipe -2 primary 550cc high impedence injectors, cleaned and tested by RC engineering -2 secondary 1680 (yes, 1680)cc low impedance injectors from Marrin injectors (microtech can drive low/high imp. injectors separately) -modified fuel rails to accept -6an lines -walbro 255lph external inline fuel pump. 255lph @ 43psi. 6an and 8an fittings available -aeromotive a1000-6 fuel pressure regulator with 1:1 boost ratio. -autometer fuel pressure gauge -new in box autometer phantom boost gauge, to 20psi -new mazda waterpump -new mazda clutch slave -new mazda intake manifold gaskets The motor's light, without the turbo and accessories probably weighs around 180lbs. My friend and I move it around the garage with the transmission attached by picking it up and just carrying it over to another spot, to give you an idea. Transmission is probably around 100lbs. This is why the motor sits so far forward, compared to how much further back I can move it, because I wanted some weight over the front wheels. probably more stuff that I can't think of at the moment. Some parts still need to be purchased, like couplings, piping, oil cooler lines, etc.... but... any interest?

  12. see, I don't like that. All that screwing and I ain't getting any.
  13. lol. all that show, and no go
  14. Story: I found a YZF600R on craigslist for 1450. Identical to what I had. Needless to say, I emailed the guy: aux <> wrote: Hi, saw your ad on CL. Is the bike still available? thanks, -aux Hi aux. aux <> wrote: Nevermind. CL ad was listed for norcal, I assumed the bike was in norcal within driving distance. -aux aux <> wrote: that's alright, I'll pass. Thanks -aux [i replied with] Thanks for your mail, Since the costed of your bike is $1450 i just contacted my client about the cost of your bike and it present condition and he said there is no problem about that.So my client said he will be issuing you a Certified Check of $4000 while you wire 3000 to me through Western Union Money Trasfer and you deduct the cost of your bike $800 and keep the remaining $200 which my client said you should take for the terms of Transaction and Agreement between you and my client.So i will like you to send me your full contact information to where my client will be sending you the Certified Check like this: name......... full address............. city............... state............. country.......... zipcode............ cell/office/home phone number....................... I will looked forward to the requested informations as soon as possibly so that the checque can be sent out to you immediately And do get back to me with the Pics of the bike so that my client will be Able to see What he is paying off. Get back to me immediately. Looking torwards your respond, How was your weekend, and we are still friends!

  15. HAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH whoa.. thinkaboudit christopher walken rules! mike I've got a burning fever, and the only cure is more cowbell
  16. this is what a 4 rotor eccentric shaft looks like and a 4 rotor (old 2 12a variant)
  17. 4 rotor was never available in ANY production vehicle.
  18. Ideally, this is what I'd want to do. However, I have 1/8th of the clearance he has That is the best design for an external wastegate that I've seen. Straight off the turbo, angle of the wastegate runner is direct flow of exhaust gas. He'll never have boost creep problems as well as surges.
  19. on a rotary, hot/cold ratios are backwards: you want bigger exhaust housing to flow as much as possible because rotaries pump out a ton of gas. Mine's a .84 a/r w/ divided housing, and that's considered small. I chose that ratio because I wanted quicker spooling. That WG runner is basically the same idea, but I thought about it, and I doubt I can use it because of the divider. I'll just have to use the standard design and run tubes outside
  20. yeah, but my turbo is on the OTHER side of hte motor and not enough clearance
