Restoring an Abandoned Mazda RX7 EP. 15 She Moves
ABSOLUTE MASSIVE PROGRESS, The Mazda RX7 is not only back on the ground BUT it also has a full drivetrain now. We should have an engine back in this car in a few days as well. With the drivetrain, I decided to have everything dry ice blasted. and while it did do a great job at cleaning all the old dirt off. It was not clean enough for me to want to toss it back into the car. so we are getting a little creative with cleaning this thing up!

Restoring an Abandoned Mazda RX7 EP. 14 / Tearing Down the 13B
Просмотров 8 тыс.День назад
The 13B That I had already built always sketched me out in the back of my mind. The rotary engine is not as scary as some people make it out to be. But it never had the engine balanced or clearance. This time we will be doing that. Luckily we have Atkins rotary local so we can drop off our engine with them for some work! Also prepping to have a good chunk of parts Dry Ice blasted to get the dri...

Getting the RX7 closer to not only becoming a rolling chassis again but getting this thing fully painted. The RX7s Rear diff and transmission head out for Dry Ice blasting next week and I think I may have the power steering rack knocked out as well. Once those items are back in we should be able to move this thing and get cracking on our 13B. This RX7 restoration has come a long way but still h...

We need to get our Mazda RX7 as close to being able to roll as possible. Not only do I want to see this thing outside of the Shop again BUT, I also want the lift back. So we need to give this thing all new wheel bearings and start getting our suspension back into this car. I'd like to get the bodywork finished in the next few days and start putting some focus onto our engine and transmission. T...

Getting ever so closer to getting this 1993 Mazda FD RX7 complete. We still have a TON of things to paint. So figured we would knock out everything we possibly can right now. At this point, all that is left is the Hood, Doors, Hatch, and some small bits here and there. It's insane to finally see this thing look like a car again and it's looking so good!

For my first time painting, I'll say that it's not the best, not the worst type of situation. The amount of time you spend on prep work alone is so time-consuming to make little mistakes that can just ruin everything. Nothing that can't be fixed, Once we wet sand and polish I think the paint will come out perfect! I could be wrong though. Shop Subaru Parts - www.Rallysportdirect.com use code SM...

Before we can really get going on getting the chassis prepped for Paint we NEED to free up some shop space, get a bigger air compressor, and set everything up. So we can finally start tossing some parts back onto the FD RX7 to get it to start to look like a car again. I will say this will be the Cleanest FD RX7 out there after we are done with it.

While the interior may not be seen once the car is back together that doesn't mean that we still won't paint it.

I can't believe the Rio doesn't go back on. The car will fold if it hit lightly in the front. Other than that, awesome as always 👌👌
Hot damn that bronze powder coat is TiTS!
replace that fd diff with a ford 8.8
Where’s the 2jz😢
Great video, as usual. One thing im wondering though is: there's a lot of talk about warranty but what about insurance? I heard some companies won't even insure vehicles modified for more power?
Hey ,i already have a protune in my wrx,i was wondering if i can change my bov to a diverter valve without a tune Thanks
Hey ,i already have a protune in my car,i was wondering if i can change my bov to a diverter valve without a tune Thanks
yo dog what fuel injector/system cleaner do you use, i’ve been trying to go back in the videos to find it but i cant
Sometimes, just because someone has not done it, doesn’t mean you should try. The money that it will take to get there is going to be nuts.
What radio tripple gauge pod did use and where did you get it from? Looks OEM
Hey smeedia we love you
What camera do you use, to film your videos? Is it a gopro ?
Canon EOS R5 🫡
@@Smeedia ohh wow thats expensive, and I assumed GoPro 🤦🏽♂️ how offensive 😂. Shows I know nothing about cameras😅 I guess I just wished it was a GoPro because that’s more in my price range 😅
check out the insta 360 go! That’s my on the go and head mount camera and I absolutely LOVE IT!
This build it going to be a show piece ❤❤❤ 24:45
Things suuuuuuper clean 😮💨🔥
0:03 meanwhile in California our forecast is measured in 🔥. Not ☀️ but🔥
Lmao literal fire 😂😅
@@Smeedia I'll send you a screenshot 😆
wild take but put some work Meister on it!
I was debating this 👀
I am currently rebuilding my ej25 after a piston grenaded, this will aide me in the process of the rebuild. I subbed on the simple fact that I understood everything you said.
Modernized volkswagon with all wheel drive. Got it. 😕
you the man for helping out the DIY community
🔥
🔥🙌
Hear me out... bronze wheels
That’s what I’m leaning towards 👀
Does the turbo fit with all the green speed stuff on ? Sap and everything else? Shop says they recommend a Cobb 20g but i want more power
Does anyone else’s WRX run an STI pcv system and then makes you question every part you’ve ordered?
I did this mod and found an unpleasant side effect in winter. I get no heat unless I bring the RPMs up, even with the coolant warmed up to 84C. If you're in a colder climate, please keep that in mind.
From certain angles and no back deck lid it has a pick up look to it.
It’s a Mazda Ute now 😂
Tanner this has become my new favorite build. Very detail oriented. I say triple chrome the Rega's.
Definitely my favorite car I’ve built so far. Every car forward I fell like I have to do the same now 😂
Gold wheels or bronze to match the housings and turbo👌
Bronze is what I’m leaning toward I think 👀
I will 100% be getting some of that Techron fuel cleaner tomorrow. Thanks bro
Anytime! Stuff works wonders!
I like the front rims better than the white masters turbo looks sick 😷
I’m right there with you right nown😅
Bronze wheels man!
Brake calipers will be bronze, might be too much? 👀
I’d powder coat the face of some 3pc wheels the brone you used on the turbo with some polished lips
Ohhhhhh I actually love this idea 👀
I love this rainy WA weather because it's great for the 4th! I'm soo excited for you and the progress you've made on the rx7! Its been giving me motivation to chip away on my junk! Let us know if you're headed to any local car shows around.
I forgot it’s almost already July 😭 get the projects going, start chipping away at it!
Ooooor dont drive without a seatbelt? Pretty simple.
You should just use that aluminum blast on the motor instead of stacking Oreos with different colors. I personally think the motors look cheesy when they do that.
I love the two tone look on the engines 😅 gives em a nice contrast IMO 👀 plus Mazda did em factory two tone 😅
I was planning on using that alumiblast stuff on my built ej25 block. Everything was hot tanked but there’s just a ton of gross oxidation on the block, so I saw this stuff and figured why not since it’s temp rated for blocks.
Definitely give it a shot! The stuff works wonders and looks so good when done!
Interesting you mentioned having wrx electric steering. I have a wrx and like it even though a slightly more aggressive ratio would be nice. Many people talk about how garbage steering is on wrx vs STI. But not wanting hydraulic makes sense.
front wheels look modern rear wheels look classic. idk which i like better amazing build so far can't wait to see it run
I’m not opposed to either. But whatever we go with needs to be powder coated 😅
Then why not bronze wheel?
The brakes will be bronze, feel like that might be a bit much 😅
Brother she looking beautiful. Why not go a wheel with that same bronze you’re using on the face then even a chrome lip would look classy. Keep doing your thing
Doing the brakes the same bronze, feel like it would be too much with bronze brakes and bronze wheels 🧐 kinda feeling some polished wheels
@@Smeedia yeahhhh that’s the way. That will look sweet. Subtle but unique and classy. Look forward to seeing it come together. You’re seriously such an inspiration and give motivation to go that extra mile. Thankyou
Bronze wheels for the accent color. Will set off the black bronze in the engine bay 🔥
Brake calipers will be bronze, think it might be too much? 👀
@@Smeedia Yea might clash, unless the calipers are white 🤔
Bronze black🎉🎉😊
Like 3 piece? 👀
It's off the lift🥳 🚗💥💨🔥
She rolls again 🥳
Yo man, this shit is looking amazing 🤘 I agree with you about the wheels--those Regas feel like not the right move for this particular build! Looking forward to seeing what you end up with.
They look good but the color def ain’t it 😅
The transmission turned out really good! looks kleeeeeean.
Thing looks damn near brand new 🙌
Looks incredible! The slavery was worth it!! Gotta go burnt bronze for the rims to match the turbo and engine!!!
I’m doing the brakes bronze though 👀 leaning towards some polished wheels 👀
Love the progress as always. Maybe a cross between the 2 wheels currently on. SSR GTX03 in gunmetal would look pretty solid
The GTX03s do look 🔥😮💨
The Mazda is looking good! Masking tip: Try using aluminum foil to mask cables, tubes, and other large crazy shapes. It's easier to install and remove. Tape the edges where you want crisp lines. Just something that I learned from watchung industrial machine painters many moons ago. Keep up the good work and love what you do!
I’ll pick some up to keep around the shop 🙌 big brain idea right there 🔥
Check out Rays 21A Spec SR or CE98. I think either of those could pop with the line and curvature combination, even in bronze.
I was debating maybe some Advans or 3 piece options as well 👀
bronze 👌
🫡🫡
Put some bronze 57DRs on there 🤝🏼
Drs would look good , kinda leaning towards some advans though 👀
Did you at least use your avant discount with cryomode?
I did not, I didn’t know they had a discount code 🥲
