    Most likely. The maximum size allowed is shown in the upload window. You'll need to resize it to 800 by 600 (900x700 actually) and keep it under 195kB.

    How to Save Fuel?

    the extra injector only works while the engine is cranking (connected to the start position on the key) so you won't save bugger all fuel by disconnecting it. The cold start injector is only operational when coolant is below ~25 deg C (77 F) as well. Have a look here for more info...

    Alternator alternatives...

    MWP - that's exactly how we did the alternator in the 1UZ RX7. The standard alternator mounted off the stud in your picture gives exactly the right offset to make the belt run true. Just make sure that you get a replacement alternator that has the same critical dimensions, which shouldn't be...

    1UZ swap into Series 2 RX7

    Cheers spf. Just weighed the car, it's 1115kg with a 3/4 full tank of gas. Haven't got the individual weights of all 4 corners, but will do that at some stage. It matches almost exactly with an original series 2 RX7 that came out of the factory at 1100kg without fuel.

    1UZ swap into Series 2 RX7

    Cheers lads. Justen - I agree, a 10m paint job will be fine initially, leaving more money to be spent on go fast parts. Andrew - we were originally going to mount the surge tank and filter in there but decided not to, and I think Chris is pretty keen on keeping the body work hacking to a...

    To paint or not to paint?

    With the RX7 finally finished we're debating whether to paint the beast. On my last 1UZ project, I found that after I painted the car, I was too scared to really use it, for fear of chipping the paint, or of some twit in the carpark opening their car door into it. The options are: Leave...

    1UZ swap into Series 2 RX7

    1UZRX7 Stage 1 finished Hi all. here are a few snaps of the finished car. The paint and panel work will get done at a later date, and we're still tossing up whether the money would be better spent on a decent FI setup. Actually, I'll start a poll and see what others reckon... Cheers, NickM

    Airflow meter troubles

    That's the right AFM for the early model 1UZs. There are two ignitors on the 1UZ, have you got both and are they plugged in?

    1UZ swap into Series 2 RX7

    Cheers Andrew. We're still waiting to get the cert plate fitted which is a pain in the a$#e, the certifier has been ill and only got the cert papers sent away today. I'm guessing that it will be mid to late next week before the plate arrives...

    Project Thread Supercharged Supra

    Bugger. John, you may consider it too bodgy for your application, but if you can get a hold of the correct spade terminals for the plug, you could get some plugs milled up that will press into the COP housings. I've done that before out of a block of ptfe, and sized and radiused it to press...

    1UZ swap into Series 2 RX7

    Here's a pic of the new mounts, with the old ones there for comparison. Much beefier indeed. The guy in the machine shop was great to deal with, and the price was pretty decent too. They'll be on the car this evening.

    1UZ swap into Series 2 RX7

    Cheers Justen. the machine shop are nearly done, so the mounts should be ready by lunch today. Then we'll take a quick trip down to the certifier so that he can sight them, and he'll send away the certification papers.... brilliant. The certifier has already done the warrant checks, so as soon...

    1UZ swap into Series 2 RX7

    I just got back from the machine shop. The new ones are getting made out of T6 grade ali and will have the important bits bridged in (see pic). With a bit of luck they'll be back on Thursday, and hopefully back on the car for Friday (after showing the certifier).

    1UZ swap into Series 2 RX7

    Hi all, Cheers Justen, that was the conclusion that we'd come to. I'm going to see a local machine shop this morning as the guy that originally made them has moved to Oz.. Ali TIG would probably minimise the warpage, but with brakes I'm thinking it's just not worth the risk. The ali we...
