1993 RX7 w/2jzgte & R154 swap in process...
Had the car for a few months, It made good power but had a bad valve seal, it's been a bit of a head ache for me but only due to money waisted with shops in town. Just had my time and money waisted and crappy work done on the car. Lesson learned!!!
So I decided to rip the car apart and put it back together the right way with the help of a couple friends along the way, THANKS GUYS! I believe originally KR Motorsports in Killeen did the swap and all the work to the car and Tuning Concepts tuned the car. I guess it made 500 pump and 575 race, it has a built head, stock bottom end, and a single T67, AEM EMS, supporting mods... When I bought it I had the tune verified and the car checked out by a local shop, it made 420whp on the mustang dyno.
I spent 5 grand and 6 weeks with that shop in an attempt to get the car reliable and verified and up to par, and MZM did pretty much nothing for me. I was still in the same position I was when I took them the car. After a couple bad experiences, I just decided to call it quits with them, take my car and do it myself.
Now my car sits in a pile of parts while my head gets rebuilt (Titan Ferrera head package) along with my bottom end is getting a bath and a couple upgrades, ARP main-head-rod bolts, new rings and HG... All the work is being done by Dennis at Precision Engine. Heard nothing but great things and I have seen his work make power and get beat on! I figured I would need help and forums have always helped me in the past! I look forward to sifting through posts and using the search button so hopefully you wont hear from me too often lol...
I will update my account with more pics and specs here in a bit...
