Had a crap day today

First off all got my rx7 all health cheked before i go to denmark all was great, compression, coolannt etc etc, so all new fuilds and plugs and a bit dyno session..

 

1st run all afr spot on accross full rev range 500bhp at 1 bar did a couple of tweeks at wgt then we moved to 1.1 bar and made 540bhp which is quite impressive... then a few more runs and the timing gear snapped on rx7 (bxxxlks) this is the cog that spins the rotors , so might have to have a uprated item fitted and my guess its probs caused internal damage.

 

 

then i said to andy (owner of t51r purple supra) am going to have a bad day and they come in threes.. so i told him man utd will lose and they did :( and finally i open my mail and speeding ticket 36mph in a 30mph..

 

crap day but not as bad as some others i have noticed at japfest etc etc.

yep the diff went at pod so i bought a Kaaz was getting fitted at WGT today and fullservice then my timing cog snapped, Pip said 540bhp is a lot for RX7 so we might have to have a reinforced one made and hopefully not much damage done to engine but am not keeping my hopes up

Hope the Rex wasn't too serious Jurgen? We were up at WGT on Saturday (Supe, Fezza, Rex, Elise shoot out) and saw your car there. Pip explained its plight. Seem like a decent bunch of guys up there with good premises/equipment etc.
