I have a guy with a 97 rx-7 with a big turbo put down 500 hp to the wheels and im going to race him with my procharged SS that put down 680 hp to the wheels we are racing from a 5 punch witch car do you think will win

 

The one with 180 more WHP? How high are you going?

Is this really real or is it a hypothetical rece between non-existant cars? If it is reallt real, will it actually happen?

 

rx7s are LIGHT...it's hard to say. Just from what I've seen, an rx7 with a bone stock LS1 will go mid 12s. I would bet on you though.

 

it is a real race and i think we are going to race to 110-120

 

Impressive, considering there are no 97 RX-7s that I'm aware of in the US.

 

i dont know the exact year but it is the newer body style rx-7

 

i dont know the exact year but it is the newer body style rx-7

 

well, how much do rx7's weigh?

 

umm not much^^I think it was r&t i saw it in today in the barbershop it was like 2850

 

like 2500 lbs (somewhere in that range) and by newer body style do you mean 95? If you have a procharged 408 i don't see you being beat...

 

There aren't, you can't get them in the country.

 

You need more info on the RX-7. RX-7.com's car made a little over 500 to the wheels and ran 9's, but of course it was set up for drag. With a little of 600 whp it ran 9.2.

How is his car set up? Tire? Port on the motor? A streetport with a Gt42R isn't going to spool too quick. Now a 1/2 bridge with a T51R SPL DBB and you could have some trouble with a guy that can drive.

R1's weigh around 2780 lbs. stock.

But is this real?

 

my fd (93 rx7) with LS1 swap and driver inside weighs 2695.

 

Try 11's. Guy did it with a completely stock motor, just an intake and exhaust. One guy ran 10's with just a cam.

 

What kind of weight reduction? Is this with no gas?

 

no spare, no jack, i don't have the bose system and i have a carbon fiber hood and some misc. things, the old owner did a lot of misc. weight reduction, but the interior is complete. that's with half a tank of gas

edit: forgot to mention it's a base model - no sunroof, etc.

 

I got a 93 rx7 to do a ls1 swap, love the car, hate the motor.....But after the swap I'll keep it for a spare so when the b16 goes out on the mower I've got a replacement

 

1/4 mile not 1/8 ???

 

true, true, true. im going to run just long tubes, cutout, and a nice shot of nitrous, i THINK that should be enough, what do you think??

 

you are going to completly murder him if you CAN DRIVe. you car is just a supeiror motor to his not to metion you are throwing 180hp more to the floor.
