After far too long I'm rolling again. I picked the car up about a month ago right before having a load of busy weekend but finally this weekend got back on the road.
The engine has been fully rebuilt. It's a 13B Mazda rx7 turbo engine and I lost compression early last year. Took it to a rotary specialist who took their time but have done a solid job. There wasn't much that could be salvaged but I have a rebuilt engine with bigger injectors, a whole new ignition system including a much more modern ecu. It runs very well on its running in map but we'll turn up the wick and map it properly when it's run in. I did 130 miles yesterday with no major issues, 870 to go. Fuel consumption is improved although I've lost the popping, banging and flames... probably connected
In addition I've raised the car 20mm all round so the tyres don't rub any more. It's still relatively low though compared to some measurements I've read on here. I've also backed off front and rear arbs and the dampers to give me a bit more compliance on the road while I run it in and it's much more pleasant to drive.
The car used to run 3 degrees of camber but I've backed that off to 1.5 and currently I'm not running any toe in, well, perhaps a smidge. The only thing I think I need to change is the relative position of the wishbones to the top of the suspension. I have some of Rob's excellent wishbones and following advice I've positioned then as far forward as I can but this has resulted in very heavy steering on the move although extremely precise. I may move it back a mm to see if it makes it slightly easier without losing the stability or the turn in.
Few little niggles to sort out. The gearbox reverse gate seems to be stuck open as it sat around for a year, should be an easy fix. Diff feels a bit tight in car parks and did notice a drop of oil of the bottom of the axle casing so will investigate that.
I'm hoping that I'll get the rest of the running in done in time for some track days later this year but we'll see how we go.
Nice to be rolling again
Cheers,
Mark
One thing for sure , it would certainly give people a shock at what goes into some Stylus's , you'd have plenty of viewers if the bonnet was open 
MattD will be there too 
We normally get 3 runs before lunch as long as the weather's ok and no one flies off into the trees (like I did in 2007 
)
