    1.8 Miata oil pressure

    I have a 1.8 Miata (DP AUTOX, basically stock engine) with a concerning oil pressure issue. Cold (idle) about 60 psi, hot (180) goes to zero. Gage (mechanical) checked: ok. Have no idea what oil was in it. Experimented with straight 50w. 75 psi at idle but drops rapidly as engine warms up...

    Halffast 1992 BMW (autocross)

    Still for sale if you’re reading this. Clean title. Why is it halffast you ask? Because it’s only got compression in 2 of 4 cylinders. That’s easily correctable: just install the spare (stock) engine. Stock engine, gage cluster, ECU. Good news: Totally gutted for AUTOX use Aftermarket wheels...

    BMW won’t RPM

    I have a 1995 BMW 318 I autocross car with some issues. Last time out, it didn’t run very well. Lap times were down & it didn’t sound quite right. Found nothing visual so started with the basics: fuel, spark & airflow were ok so on to more serious investigation. Compression test was an eye...

    Hot Lap timer pushbutton?

    I have an old Hot Lap timer that I used in my slow RX2 years ago. I recall I used a push button rather than the beacon to register lap times : some laps were really slow (when I forgot to punch the button.....). These systems are out of production so there is minimal old stock available. Can't...

    12 gallon fuel cell

    Need a 12 gallon cell to replace [grossly oversize] 15 currently in the car. Would prefer to not buy a new one if someone has a good used (or unused...) one laying around.

    RX7 fuel cell size

    My 1st gen has a 15 gallon cell. It's WAY too big. I typically use less than 8 gallons with the 12A. I will eventually have a 13B in the car. How much gas would I expect to use with that (carbed)? I think a 10 gallon cell will be adequate. A 12 gallon will, i believe, just give me an opportunity...

    Miata gears in a 1st gen box

    Quite some time ago, there was a discussion about putting Miata gears in a 1st gen RX7 gearbox. Have seen similar discussion on the internet. I recall everything is a bolt in and the only modification is some machining on the input shaft. I prefer to not reinvent the wheel: can someone provide...

    WIFI??

    It's supposed to precipitate Saturday (30% chance according to the weather I look at). I don't have one of those fancy phones with a weather app: does the track have WIFI so I can watch radar on my old laptop?

    Muffler for rotary

    My rotary exhaust has a 'box of rocks' muffler. It is always comfortably under the sound limit. Having said that, I'm looking to reduce weight of the car (it's WAY over minimum). This might be a place to get several pounds out of it. Please advise what brand & model muffler (or mufflers) you...

    13B ID

    I just purchased a bunch of RX7 1st gen stuff (an IT car, a (rust free) gutted street roller + spares). One of the extra engines is a 13B but must be newer than 84/5 or early 2nd gen. It has individual coils, no dist hole in front plate and a factory crank trigger wheel. Exhaust ports are...
