LS1 powered RX7
MAN! You don't have to force things down peoples throats. If he doesn't like imports you're probably not going to convince him by being shitty in a few posts. If he doesn't like imports why the **** do you guys care? IF you think he's a twit rock on. Now we have all got up in this post to bitch and fight for no good reason. Yes, I know I am not making things any better 
You drive a convertible Cobra which doesn't exactly makle you king kong either.

What can be said about optispark that hasn't already been said about Adolph Hitler? In fact I'd venture to say it's almost as worthless as your opinion.
And? There are FASTER imports get over it...
We know we read all about the mad hp mods in your sig.
Doubtful, see the LSX motors are already going faster than the LT1 cars and with less time for R and D. Why? because no one wants to change an optispark everytime their car makes a pass.
They wouldn't be so blind with ignorance.

In my opinion the problem with the LT1 is that people gave up on it/never REALLY worked it out. It was introduced in what? '92 or '93 and was done by '97? That's too short a lifespan for the aftermarket to really work it out. It's not that different from a GENI SBC which last time I checked has won more races than any other engine IN THE WORLD.
That being said I prefer the LS1 mostly for ease of modification.
In summary:
FD RX7+GENIII/IV = Very Cool.
Rotaries sound like ****.
I think the original I6 into a 'stang comment was about a RB26 put into a mustang for F&F Tokyo Drift.
Rotaries sound like ****.
People who don't know engines automatically assume the LT1 is garbage
Yes, I know I made multiple posts to get my point across.I did this because I am lazy.
'03/'04 Cobras are in my opinion "The American Supra".They can make 600whp and run high 11's or 800whp and run mid 11's.
and finally: rotaries sound like ****.
Thanks!

the lt1 internals ARE the same as the Gen i SBC. as evident by the fact that the 92 25th Anniv. Edition RS Camaro was going to have a built 350 Gen 1 SBC with lt1 internals straight from GM.
the bottom end record for a 2jz i believe is over 1200rwhp. the record for the fastest STREET DRIVEN supra is in the 8s at i *THINK* 170mph. BTW that was done on a completely stock getrag 6 speed manual and completely stock TT supra rear end. something NO 82+ fbody has ever done nor will ever do.
do fbodies suck? nope, ive loved all the ones ive owned and love my current 94 Z28 (that i will NOT be putting an LT1 into, cuz i actually want to go fast). However, i do realise that in every possible way (except for price for initial purchase) the MKIV supra is better.

The silver Cobra is a stroker car and he got the move every run cause he had no horn to honk. Besides that I'd say I only really lost one race that whole night and that was to the red single turbo car that got a car and the move and shut down at 130. Race was over I couldn't catch him.
Other then that I guess you and I are watching two different videos..

Your right that an LT1 wont handle half the power capabilities as the 2JZ engines we see on the internet and on dyno pulls.
But who cares? Stock cars are for dirt track racing.
"Stock" is just a good place to start.

Marco (white supra) ran mid 8's at my home track last year. He was definitely NOT using a 6speed when he did this. Who ran 8's with a STOCK getrag 6speed?! I find a stock getrag handling that power in a heavy *** Supra hard to believe. If you prove it I'd be impressed.

. There certainly aren't alot of quick ones here. There are a few that move out w/authority but not many.The ones that have rolled out onto the street in Chicago when I was there were afraid to race a 5500lb truck on 22's that I built. Actually, that truck whacked an '03 Cobra that was boosted up and on the gun.The few Cobra's I tried to race with my T/A either flat-out wouldn't race me or begged for 6+ spots.
Since I am no longer street racing that car I'll say:That car was used for street racing. If people go on the internet and see that you only run an 11.7 they tend to think they can win.
The reality is you can knock more than half a second off that time and you'd be closer to what I really did.
