The RX7 is completely assembled and running. I start it up every weekend. It does need a new turbo though. The bushings are shot in the old one and it will only build 1-2 pounds of boost. The impeller shaft also got bent from overheating so it rubs the housing. Time for an 88mm turbo. :-D

Yeah, I have a thread somehwere in the project area. I don't know if the turbo was bad going in, but I certainly destroyed it :icon_frow. The good news is that the housing can be bumped up to fit the 88mm wheel so that is what I will do at some point. The most boost it ever built was 6 pounds before it went downhill and I found the compressor wobbling all over.

OK, that is weird. I went to other vehicles in the project area and set to display all threads from the beginning and it doesn't show up. I searched up the thread and here it is, not sure why it doesn't show?? Enjoy the reading, first I had a bad engine, then a bad tranny, then a bad turbo. I think the car will be OK though once the turbo is replaced. If it is a bad car then I can start with a 240z again :-D
