RGTorque

just crawled out of the 7. was driving around with various friends that wanted rides, and those who swore she would never run 5 hours in the driver seat really takes it out on me! i think a winter project will be lumber support and more padding in the seat bottom... steve, i will eternally be jealous of your seats.

warm weather = driving around! will be cruising from HATBORO TO QUAKERTOWN if anyone would like to join in for lunch... may head to new hope later in the day!

hello all, im replacing the old miata cable on my car and i was wondering how you guys have mounted up yours. can someone please send me a few snapshots if the cable mounting/placement on the pedal?

bruce, first off WELCOME! many of us were hoping the new owner of jeffs car would pop in. sadly i do not have any wheels for sale for your car. i can recommend searching here for 5x100 wheels. http://forums.vwvortex.com/forumdisplay.php?803-5x100-Classifieds i myself have ran multiple sets of wheels originally intended for a VW. my current set if s set of dotz touge which fit the car very well. i took the two wheels for the front to the machine shop to open up the center bore a tad more since the vw center bore is smaller then the wilwood hub in the front. if need be a machine shop can create centering rings for any wheel you choose to run, no matter the center bore. http://img704.imageshack.us/img704/6750/super7.jpg http://imageshack.us/a/img34/4540/cimg3072resize.th.jpg

yea. a properly built 7 from the hands of loren is must nicer. i was able to get in and drive away. that being said there is still some finishing work i would like to do (im a picky person) to make the bay look as nice as when it had the miata engine. btw, i still cant get the car out of 3rd gear and over 4000rpm... way scary. its 100% a different drive then i remember it, granted the last time i drove it was 3 years ago...

haha, not quite. i like my wheels better what are you doing sneaking in here... you in the northeast now?

tom, best wishes for you man. my mother has 3 units on the beach in atlantic city so we feel for you!

after many years of frustration i now have a properly working 7 in my garage... hope to see the locals at cars and coffee this sat.

i thought i had loose bolts as well but i took a risk and bought the joints with teflon inserts listed in the thread above. the difference was quite marked. i have 0 suspension rattle. now, other rattles in the car are a different story. i will be getting my car back from westtexass2k by the end of next week and begin driving it around again!

very interested in pics of the tilt wheel

congrats on the sale!!! is it to a fellow member? any info as to the region (crosses fingers for north east)

count 4 rolls. that sucks... no other way to put it. makes me want to keep my car off the track.

my vehicles has no snog stuff on it. no cat/etc. if i keep it below 5,000 a year i dont have to do any checks . i hope to have it runing and in my hands by months end and would be glad to take you for a ride around our less populated roads though it may be a bit cooler out then around mondo.

yikes...

is it me or has the cars muffler gotten smashed a bit during the event? close call? off roading? the public wants to know!

you should definitely see and feel an ultralite. compared to many of the other cars, they are more "complete" and powerful in standard trim then cars of similar price range. if your on the east coast any time soon i would be glad to show you mine in the philadelphia area as it will be returning from its rebirth by months end.

perhaps we will have another drive soon with the no shows

o man! i wish i was there to see the maz

yes. i already have pics of the engine in the car and the header almost done. we are held back because of a delay at a machine shop. soon!!!!!

sad to miss another drive. its been years since i shot fire on my last run with you guys!

wow! this car looks great. better looking then a few commercially made cars i can think of!

looks like i am not going to make it. eta on my car is pushed to early/mid October.

the DB will depend on your motor. i was planning on using this on a turbo setup myself (not that an NA setup will not work)

got these from jegs but am now going with a custom setup. i paid nearly $270 for both shipped. Body Length (in.)18 Inlet Size (in.)2 Outlet Size (in.)2 Body Height (in.)4 Material 409 Stainless Steel Shape Oval make me a reasonable offer and they are yours! http://www.jegs.com/images/photos/300/389/389-12018400.jpg
