Been on Jemmy Vine program today.......You need to declare the new body scheme to your insurance company.
Your car could be considered to be more desirable now.

And yes, my silly (quite inferior) red stripe has always been on my declaration. Never thought I'd talk down my stripe......

Legal here, but the cops will pay attention more than any numbers-worthy car wants.

The car looks great, love the colour scheme, but you stole my thunder !

I was going for a similar look rather than the usual Group B colour scheme, but with my car being white was going to use a combination of red and blue stripes..........

Might need a rethink now.

definitly better with the stripes.Good exotic choice.
What's about. golden wheel dish and (Lucky ) polished rim well?

So now that my Rx-7 looks a bit racey I felt that its performance should match.

So Kiwidave popped around and ..............



which led to this........



which ended up here........



Stay tuned in folks, all will be revealed.

Whilst my engine is out I am going to be undertaking a few jobs that need doing.

One of these was the fuel pump which seemed to have inconsistent performance - Tool and Lucky can testify to that on the trip to RRG14. It is a Mallory 4110 which should pump harder than Sylvester and Arnold combined.

So i whipped it off at the weekend and cracked it open. What I found inside is not so hot. The power cable has been pulled tight so that it has dragged across the commutator and ripped it to shreds. Poorly designed or unfortunate event.





Should still work but will go through bushes a bit quicker.

a bit of wet and dry should smooth that out

Answered my question too, I was wondering what you used to drive the IDA.

I'm still undecided on the best pump set up.

I'm absolutely loving the livery looks awesome, way better than when you got it! I'd like to know more about the new motor too

Also, Race Numbers on a road car can be a pain, my dad used to race his lotus, he drove to/from races with numbers on and got pulled over and told they weren't allowed. That was 30 years ago too, would be even more a pain these days I think.
