Brothers, Im doing a 700R4 Filter Change and Throttle Valve Upgrade. Ive never opened the bottom of a tranny before. How do I change the Tranny filter, where is it located and how hard is it to change out the Throttle valve? I am upgrading to the .500 mega valve for xtra firm shifts. It already has a Transgo shift kit in it but I didnt change the TV when I did it. Anyone know about this stuff?
Life gets easy. You dont need an ecu for a carbed V8 engine. Ignition switch, alternator charge line, lights, wipers, horn, fuel pump and ur good to go..
I forgot to say that I want to be a JSR member because it goes on Jacks the 8th of December for the CV upgrade and rear Disk upgrade!!! It will also get a thorough bolt tightening check etc while Im at it.... Mike whats my number?

Mikes, looks great. I have 275 50 15 NITTOS in the rear and they do look awesome. Are those ADVANs? Reminds me of those tires in Japan...your almost there!

Oh my gosh! I wondered where that $10 came from. By the way Mike picked up my meal so I guess I owe him $10!!!! No biggy, I am just glad we got to talk for a little while. Your car is awesome as well and I like the little extras you have created for it like the turn signal lights on the tach...sweet! Did you have a mechanical pump? I just remembered my car was cutting out before and I adjusted the fuel pressure and it was fine. It gets low sometimes for some reason but turning up the pressure takes care of it.....
Happy thanksgiving!!!

My friend has an RX7 in Okinawa, a 2003 model and he has had the tranny blow up and now the rear end is making noise. The torsion bar is bendinging as well. It does have a frame. The engine bolts tothe tranny and a big bar connects the tranny to the rear end. The traction is horrible and bunny hops and well....The car looks great though and puts out 406 at the wheels.....

By the way, you have the Hooker Super Comps? Did they fit with out mods in the JTR position? Do you have a part number and place you ordered from? I want to get a set too!

Mike, thats awesome! Must have been a rush to go down the track! makes me wonder about my setup. I need to redyno it here in the states. I have always been skeptical about the 380RWHP as noted in japan! My gut tells me its probably Lower than that. We have a similiar setup except yours is 383 and my output should be about 30 to 50HP less than yours in estimation. I will probably be in the low 12s somewhere. Its all just guessing until you go down the track I guess. Im gonna weigh the car today or tomorrow and see how much weight Ive lost since two years ago and wait for spring...
P.S. What was your TRAP spped?

Stony! Good deal! cant wait to hear the time improvements! Man only if you were back in Okinawa, they would freak! Enjoy brother! Show us the path!!
