RX-7 Club Forum...

While I've been on "sabbatical", someone finally got the balls to move my monster thread into the Other Engine Conversions forum where they've always wanted to file it away, but more importantly... they just eliminated reputation, and I was poised to take over the number one spot. :D

Guess Ramy's (FDNewbie) whining about getting negative rep while campaigning to get people to give him positive rep finally got too annoying, and here I was systematically moving people above him and knocking him down. Damn. :D

It really did belong in the swap forum though. Probably would get less bullshit posts in there anyways.

As far as rep, RETed ranked higher than Chrispeed? :roll:

Than enzo? Than ErnieT? Demetrious? :roll:

It really did belong in the swap forum though. Probably would get less bullshit posts in there anyways.Not really. I noticed Turbojeff took the opportunity to demote me ~50 horsepower from the untuned peak my 396 produced (647) and compared the cost of my engine to the new LS7 crate motor (which I hear will re-debute at ~16-18k rather than the original 12.5k) as if I had the buying power of GM at my disposal to make Ti valves and rods affordable in quantity. :)

As far as rep, RETed ranked higher than Chrispeed? :roll:Ramy ranked higher than Max Cooper, so you knew there was something fucked up going on.

ErnieT?Is a douchebag... :D

An emissions legal Z06 motor puts out 505hp compared to a ~$30K+ highly tuned LT1 putting out 596 hp.My engine made 647 horsepower untuned, so Jeff shorted me 50+ horsepower in his comparison.

ill reply to your pm on rx7 later tonight, i dont feel like looking at tech stuff now. too tired.

btw i want titanium rods and valves, or aluminum, but i think those will be really really expensive for my motor. like 4k plus

i got some neg rep for making fun of the christians. then i had an admin pm me who left me rep, and got them back;)

ErnieT and Evil were the instigators from what I heard. I don't know if my considerable donations to the forum saved me from the chopping block or not. Doesn't really matter, I was ready to go at any time.

Ok, so he just quotes your power 50hp less than it actually made. I see. I haven't dug through that thread ina long time. Your 647 was on an engine dyno correct? Either way, your pulling more power with less cubes; which the rotards love to cite.

Chances are is that u probably donated more $$$$ than those 2 combined, yet ur days might be numbered.

IMO, it might be already there...

Hasn't been really "professional" or "business" worthy from what i've seen since the "Exodus"...

In fact, it's almost as if they gave up entirely on modding the lounge and other sections.... lol, response time gets longer and longer each go round....

Well they were certainly speedy in banning my ass. That place is going down hill quickly, soon all that will be left are mods like Aaron Cake and newbies asking how much more horsepower they can get from the turbo exhaust at Monroe Muffler.

Its just become an attempt at a cash cow. The admins are worried about the body count for advertisers. The quality of the information is irrelevant.

There has been nothing significant or new in the rotary community in years. The exception may be the GT turbos which imho or poor performing overpriced case tractor turbos anyways. There should be an engine managment section and that is it. Everything else is old news. Usually when I state this on 7 club, I get a lot off negative feedback.

Ok, so he just quotes your power 50hp less than it actually made. I see.It was just another shot at me trying to prove my engine wasn't special and was a ridiculous waste of money now that the LS7 will soon be available in crate form (and eventually from wrecked Corvettes). Of course, if you buy an LS7 crate engine, you'll eventually end up behind the curve when the next latest-greatest is released.

I have it from an authoritative source that Jeff's animosity is driven by jealousy that he can't spend the money I do on his own cars. He had to sell his red car to keep the CYM he resurrected and then he had to sell it too so that he could save to move into a bigger house. He doesn't understand why I have so much more disposable income than he does. :D

Hey, at least you left your name w/ it lol. I respect that. Someone who's got the kahunas to say what the feel...and says it w/ respect, that commands respect from me. That person's not being fake, not being a coward, not hiding behind a screen in the only "world" that allows them to be an (e)thug lol. Half these punks would never say a single word to you in person. Maybe backbite you (as lower class society does), but never to your face. That's a shame, cuz I love taking care of all my personal affairs in person.I had to tell Ramy that he was a whiny little cunt in private mail because the RX-7 Club forum rules prevent me from having the "kahunas" (I think he meant cajones) to tell people what I think of them... :D

Those are the areas where one is supposed to be a mindless post whore retard. At least in the tech sections I kept my mouth shut unless I knew what I was talking about :wiggle:

i disagreed with you on one issue and suddenly you have it in for me. i don't really have any ill-will towards you, and im a bit dissappointed that i seem to have made an enemy.

i never claimed to have uber technical knowledge on rx7's or cars in general. i like rx7club for looking up info to help my friends, and contribute on a thread here and there if it seems like someone needs help. i like the lounge because it was really entertaining back when i was working, and i met some cool people there.

Still holding punches back I guess. . . . I remember the more extreme retorts from back in the day when it was Jimlab vs JoDy (haha, JoeD. . .lol). . amongst others. Those were the days. Or the classic Jimlab vs Batman thread that eventually got deleted :swords:
