So that's how they got it to Rev. They asked Suzuki.

Or Porsche, whatever.

Much like the Toyota/Yamaha marriage, though... so you have a point.

Porsche has worked (quietly) with Ford in the past too. They were involved on some of the early work on the new 5.0L

but didn't yota buy it from some one else. Thought they bought the vvti from some one else too.

edit... no copypasta from wiki.... but it deff fails on this topic. lol

Actually... think i may have been wrong about Toyota and Vtec. GM and Fiat had variants of Vtec back in the day, but Honda made true Vtec or whatever. Toyota developed VVTi and Li.

get your shit done ben, need more people that I know to run with. And your right, my tires suck big time. lol

The list is getting short...

Need:

1) Intake manifold
2) Throttle body
3) Injectors
4) Headers
5) Clutch
6) LSD (taste the rainbow)


I'm shooting to have it ready in time for KYSCCA's driver school, which is first weekend in June. I should have it done by the middle/end of may, but clutch needs a loooooooonnngggg break in period.



As for your tires... i hate to say i told you so but.....

I'd let you borrow a set of mine, but there's no way you're fitting 245/45-16s under that thing.

Can I fun flares? Been wanting to get rid of some rust. Lol

You can run flares... but i'd need them back for the MX6 soonish anyways. MX6 will be getting flares and FD RX7 wheels wrapped in those tires.

Damn I was looking at some 8in wheels to run some wide tire, but I thought I saw that I couldn't, so I went with what I have now. Dammit...

I've got two sets of 16x8s, neither of which will fit your car.

I haven't ruled that out, to be honest... But i'm not going back to a BP anytime soon, like.... ever.

I've been half-assed researching if there's a way to bolt up that drivetrain to the KLs. If i can, then it's on like donkey kong. Only problem is that i think that would take me out of SM, unless i can make the case that the chassis was available AWD. HRMMMMMM.
