Cosby 11-03-2002, 12:27 PM <font color='#000F22'>I saw a Z32 TT go in front of me toward cowpens on the way back to work on the mx7 so I turned right off zion hill and followed. He had exhaust and maybe a few other things including a gauge pod so I figured it might be a good race. I got next to him and blipped the throttle a little bit and he got on it. I figured it would be a decently long race and this happened to be at 60 mph so I went ahead and started at the very bottom of third. As soon as I floored it and boost built up I started pulling on him pretty good until I didnt see him anymore. Hit my flashers and shifted to fourth. About half way through fourth I heard "POP POP" and let off the gas. Everything felt normal. Boost was no more than usual. Gas was fine so I figured it was just a back fire due to my low compression in the front rotor and let it coast for a while until I was back down to a reasonable speed. Another hill came up and I gave it gas only to find out the car didnt want to go up the hill. I then thought "maybe I blew off an IC hose and put it in neutral and it stalled. Didnt really sound or feel like an IC hose. Pulled into a parking lot of some business out between cowpens and spartanburg and popped the hood. Nothing was loose. I then tried to start the car only to hear much rattling and no starting. Uh huh....engine went pop. Good thing half the stuff I need to rebuild it is already on the way. So after screwing around a while and asking my good friend luis to come save the day and tow me home I decided it would be best just to call AAA since for some reason my mom flipped out over my car breaking... but the rest of the night was cool. Cleveland, robert, heather and I went up to "the grade" and finally got to see what all the "fuss" was about. Its pretty neat. I'll probably go try it out one day when I resurrect one of my cars. Its looking like the MX7 will be first.</font> Corban 11-03-2002, 03:42 PM <font color='#000000'>Looks like another one bit the dust. "Speedy" the corolla had a blow out. Only it was the crank case with the hole.</font> Texas89LX 11-03-2002, 05:49 PM <font color='#000000'>low compression on the front rotor? im no expert but between that and the way it wend id say you had a cracked apex seal, and it decided to let go</font> Stegall 11-03-2002, 07:25 PM <font color='#000080'>corolla died too ?</font> Hsnite 11-03-2002, 08:49 PM <font color='#000000'>Yup...my corolla done died... guess i'm going to get in shape walking! or riding the city bus...hahaha...hmph</font> Uglymexican19 11-03-2002, 08:50 PM <font color='#000000'>sure did !</font> Cosby 11-03-2002, 09:28 PM <font color='#000F22'>yeah you can hear apex seal-like sounds rattling around lol</font> Ramkatral 11-04-2002, 07:09 AM <font color='#000000'>Well, that just doesn't sound too cool. heh</font> HighTachPrez 11-04-2002, 10:19 AM <font color='#000000'>i'm not going to say anything because i know whatever i say i'll give the wrong impression... whoops too late er, good kill? Z32TT is an extremely fast 60+mph car when modded. intake, exhaust, computer = 400hp, not to mention its slick aerodynamic body. must be a totally different RX-7 from nopi <shrug></font> Cosby 11-04-2002, 07:41 PM <font color='#000F22'>hey clint!!!

I give the guy credit on being fast. Not to mention seeing your car at the Clemson autoX. How much work have u done to it since then, and why did it blow. Sucks to blow an engine eh? Z32TT -slotted frong fascia -245 wide rear tires -factory rear wing I see a lot of Z32 NAs with TT wings running around, positive it was TT? If it had a body kit and aftermarket wheels its nearly impossible to tell if the is TT unless you can measure the width of the brake rotors.</font> StockForNow 11-05-2002, 11:15 AM <font color='#000000'>z32 tastes real good.
