the one on the flywheel is easy. they can pound on the main pully bolt all they want, it wont come off from an impact at the tireshop. i know, cus i have one.

use a 20 foot pole and a couple wrenches. 1/2 inch socket will work. expect to break some wrenches taking it off
its torqued on there tighter than a nuns ----
and they simply slap a ---- ton of thread locker on there. it wont come off easy.

figures

well since you chimed in kain, what do you think i should do port wise? im just hoping i didnt ---- up the rear case for the rotor by driving it that half mile home im thinkin about grabbing the 12a out of the rx7 at the junkyard, but i think i can just strip it of its apex seals instead!!

------- rotaries cost to much :P oh well, a price to pay to have a 150-200 hp 1.2 liter.................hehe

yeah there is a big fuss about that as well when it comes down to racing brackets and ----. they classify it as a 2.4 liter engine even though spec sheets and repair manuals say its 1.2l, but i cant complain. it pulled like a champ and shifting to second could chirp the lsd diff and keep on hauling. itll be better though once i get done with it.

yeah i know what you mean, i have my dd honda, i work on my friends imca racecar for him, and i used to love ------- around with my rx7 till i blew my ---- up and decided it was a bigger money trap than i could afford. i miss it, but its something i dont regrett at all. I got so many people who just looked at me like i was a complete idiot when i would tell them my motor doesnt even have piston or rods.
