The Zero F**ks Given RX7

[sgtp]

might not pass a WOF, but I like it!

[scumdog]

Sort of like a modern rat-rod.

Except it really hauls arse!

[clonak]

I like it. Hes onto something there. Should convert more rx7s to V8s.

[SMOKEU]

Should convert more rx7s to V8s.

That defeats the whole purpose of an RX7.

[scumdog]

That defeats the whole purpose of an RX7.

Really? what is the purpose? (apart from making 'brrrp-brrrp-brrrp' noises)

The V8 adds some proper power to them - cheaply.

They were designed to be powered by a lightweight rotary. In that sense, they are a one of a kind car (or they were during the production era). Why fuck that recipe?

[willytheekid]

Now THAT!....is my type of "car" :niceone:

I loved the line - "theres something about this car...that makes you want to be a total dick!"

LOL

Reminds me of my old chevy impala I had when I was a kid....all rust, dents, old mags, a ford front end wielded on, and leaking headers....on a big block chevy V8!:headbang:
Sure...it was complete peice of shit...but that fucka could ROCK!...and scare seven shades of shit out of ANYONE! :killingme (it was "known" by the local popo...they loved it!, always stopping me to check on the progress of my "Big block tank", and always having a laugh at my "mods")


That kid has such a great attitude..."fuck it!...its bad-arse fun!!":headbang::lol:
Good on him, that was one of the best car reviews Ive seen for a while.

Thanks for sharing the vid;)

A growling V8 with lots of power that's why.

[huff3r]

I don't even like rx-7s but i like that!

As for why fuck with it... one word... TORQUE.

[bogan]

Seems quite misnamed, looked like he did a lot of those mods specifically to draw attention and piss people off. Despite it have a V8, I'd be more than happy to nudge that piece of shit off a large cliff.

[ducatilover]

I would rock that harder than Elton rocks a cock, that is boss. :headbang::banana::2thumbsup

[HenryDorsetCase]

I really like it too. When I posted it originally I said I would like a rollcage of some sort, but now i am old I am much more of a safety-ween than I used to be.

Nah, that's just his advertising tactic Bogan.

An escort was designed to have a 1300 or 1600cc piston engine in it, yet rotor wanks insist on fucking with them. So why not take thier beloved model of car and put a proper engine in it ? See how they like seeing a perfectly good car destroyed.

And yes, I do not like rotory wankers.

[bogan]

Nah, that's just his advertising tactic Bogan.

Well, yeh, but why would you want to advertise that you're an incompetent fucktard? Cos I bet that's what it says to 90% of the people he drives passed (or who pass him when broken down or stuck in a tree).

I'd probably be fine with it if he hadn't said he did some of the things just to annoy other people, all for freedom of expression in mods etc.

Though in saying that, is probably sounds less offensive than the bag of flatulent arsholes bouncing down stairs that is the rotary with tin can exhaust that most boyracers seem to like.

[ducatilover]

I think you're reading in to it too far, it's a tiny little RX with a V8, which is a excellent IMO. Big motors in little things are good.

Flatulent arseholes, love it!

But I think his point is about celebrating the boganness of it (no offence to yourself) and if it does break down I don't think he'd really give a shit to much.

Probably true, I do like big motors in little things. But there is one thing even better, huge motors make big things seem little!

Maybe I'm just a classy bogan, but to me its the vehicle choice and application, old school lumbering tyre shredding V8 is a nice bogan ride, matte black for extra points. But the finish and detail work is still important, rat-bikes or rat-cars don't do it for me, especially when the motivation behind it is so... generation-me-ish.

Why, yes, this is good and true.

I've never seen you eat an aborted fetus, so you're a classy bogan
But all this thinking will ruin the awesome-sauce-ness of the RX7 for me :(
Give me stacked headlight Merc with a basic 350ci thanks :D no matte black, factory yellow, factory wheels... mmm classy

Right, gotcha now. You would have probably liked a 1961 Ford Fairlane one of my workmates had a while back then.

All grey with a 332 ci engine which he upgraded to a 429. Eventually, he stripped it all down and repainted it in the original two tone colour scheme but it looked very bogan in the grey. Fun times.

That rx7 could have had so much potential..
1. the guy looks like a fuckwit
2. the only thing that belongs in a factory rotary car is a rotary.

:nono:

[imdying]

Most fun I've had in a seven was a three five powered one!

One of a kind,,,just like the half a dozen others that came before it.

Yeah right:rolleyes:

Rotary engines are nice. On paper.

And costly to get grunt out of.

I like that 6 rotor toy.
I spend too much time spannering on rotaries to really like 'em properly.

And costly to get grunt out of.
I'd debate that if I could be bothered :lol: but then, because I have enough knowledge on setting the damn things up and making moAr P0waaaah from them, I'd sound like some rota fag :(

Because...... RACE CAR

Rotaries can handle racing as well.

Really, just what is the f-ing point of drifting? It's motorsport in the same way as ballroom dancing should be at the olympics.

Real racing drivers going sideways:

its the thrill, it looks easy but it aint.
then there's the drifting community, your mates, the fumes,the smell of burning rubber.
Drifting is a lifestyle.

[ducatilover]

It would be nice if we had something like the Gunsai course here, that place is epic. Doing three corners at Puke of Manfield is incredibly dull.

[clonak]

then there's the drifting community,

Bunched of hyped up dick heads as far as I can tell. Give them some riddelin and sit them in a corner for 10 minutes, should sort them out.

Take a small car, put a big engine in it and drive it really fast in a straight line, thats real motor sport.
Or you could add a couple of left hand turns and call it Nascar....:lol:

[imdying]

Watched the video, yeah, do want.


The Red Bull drifters made themselves a giant sized pinball machine that uses computers to score their event. In my eyes that takes them out of the leagues of faggotry (including diving, boxing, gymnastics, where a judge (who is open to outside influences) makes up a number to score them with, and puts them into proper sport status. Props to them for sure :yes:

[nudemetalz]

This is interesting...

600hp mk2 Escort with crappy suspension that can't handle all that hp.
Bloody fast in a straight line though !!:eek5:

"including...boxing". I know we have had this discussion before, but bullshit.

[imdying]

You can bullshit all you like, but if it needs a judge, it's a game not a sport, end of. Drifters have redeemed themselves by using modern tech, boxing can too. I expect pro boxing never will, too hard to fix fights. Pro boxing just needs to man up and admit it's the same as the WWF.
