Non Running - Lots Of Parts on 2040-cars
Grove, Oklahoma, United States
|
I am putting a 1987 RX7 TII up for sale as a project or for parts. The car has a lot invested in it, but is no longer something I am interested in. I can get car to start by putting a little fuel into the chamber and the tuning shop had it running off starting fluid - has spark and compression but no fuel. Oil has been
Non-original motor, rebuilt over a year ago, compression seems and has been stated to me as ok. New Parts: Walbro 255 fuel pump, Haltech Sprint RE programmable ECU, Clutch, Clutch Master and Slave cylinders, Resurfaced flywheel, Aeromotive 13129 Fuel pressure regulator and gauge, Motor mounts, Starter, Radiator, Remanufactured 550cc Fuel injectors. New Parts Internal: Apex, Side, and Corner Seals from Atkins. Soft seals and O-rings. Engine is complete, alternator only accessory hooked up, AC in box, smog pump gone, car does not have power steering (from factory I believe). Extra Parts: Spare 5 speed Turbo transmission - unknown condition New passenger area carpet in box - black NXS turbo timer Spare stock Turbo - needs rebuilt AC compressor - unhooked - unknown condition Car had a suspension kit on it from Suspension Techniques when I bought it. It was behind some guys house where it had sat for at least 3 years, the owner pulled the motor and sold it for scrap. Replacement motor bought out of a parts car, checked vin was a 87 or 88 turbo 2. Rebuilt using parts ordered through Atkins including new 2mm Apex seals. Car was previously in Arizona, now Oklahoma, no rust issues. Body fairly strait with peeling paint and a few dents (passenger headlight cover). Car has been professionally fitted with a Haltech sprint RE - has not been tuned. Shop also fabbed block off plates (OMP still attached though). Rats nest still attached because I still have the hard fuel lines hooked up. Lots of people say fuel issues and I choose not to believe them; so a quick list of things I have tried or corrected. Had original low impedance injectors cleaned, wiped out bottom of tank, corrected fuel lines that were hooked up wrong, replaced fuel pressure regulator (fpr), replaced stock FPR replacement with Areomotive and made sure to get gauge, checked grounds, leads, fuses, and resistance on fuel injectors, bought high impedance fuel injectors. Rechecked that injectors enabled in haltech. Good pressure in the fuel rails and seems like injectors are getting ground signal that the haltech does. Known faults: No Fuel Cracked front windshield Driver seat poor to fair, passenger seat bad Car has dents and the clear is peeling (exterior is rough looking with the clear coming off and was so far down the to do list to worry about, I make no promises about it except that I have been under it and around it plenty and haven't seen rust - flaking or holes) Harness for gauge cluster needs rewiring (in passenger compartment even with gauges on the firewall) guage cluster bezel broken plastic pieces surrounding steering column missing No carpet for hatch compartment Tires hold air but are too small Master cylinder for brakes needs replacing and brakes bled - E-brake only one working at the moment Included odometer is a replacement and does not reflect actual miles which are unknown Has some wires that need cleaning up, the hoses for the intercooler need replaced, and a small list of other things that I was saving till after I got it running. I would be better off parting it out, but space and time are better reserved for other things right now. I have tried to put 100% about the car on here but easier thought than done. I will be happy to answer any questions about the car, but if I need to be with the car it will have to wait till the weekend. Oklahoma Title clear and in my name. Car is black tagged through next month - June 2014. The first three pictures are from this month, the others are 6 months or older. Car is As-is, and all misc parts related to the car will go with it. |

Mazda5 may not be long for this world
Thu, Feb 5 2015The concept behind building a smaller but still useful minivan like the Mazda5 always seemed like such a good idea. However, since the little people hauler's introduction, there has been the rise of the compact crossover in the US, which fulfills a similar niche for many buyers. The future is not looking good for the utilitarian Mazda. Autocar from the UK reports that company officials confirm the Mazda5 is being discontinued there, with no replacement planned. Autoblog reached out to Mazda North America, but the company would not verify future product changes in this region. Though, the model's cancellation would hardly be a surprise to follow in North America, as well. The minivan market is a tough place these days, and dealers tend to prefer more expensive models for their high margins. Even FCA US is abandoning the inexpensive portion of the segment for the next-gen Chrysler Town & Country. The Mazda5 isn't exactly a sales standout, either. Mazda sold 11,613 of them in all of 2014, which was a 16.4 percent drop from 13,884 in 2013. To compare to larger, more expensive minivans, Honda moved 122,738 units of the Odyssey last year, and Toyota did 124,502 examples of the Sienna.

Mazda builds 1 millionth MX-5
Mon, Apr 25 2016Mazda produced its 1 millionth MX-5 Miata on April 22. Known alternately as the Miata, the Mazda Roadster, or the Eunos Roadster, the MX-5 has long held the record as the best-selling open-top two-seat sports car. It topped half a million at the turn of the millennium, and hit 800,000 less than a decade ago. The MX-5 recently entered its fourth generation over 27 years, which only promises to drive that record number higher. While it's not one of the most prolific automobiles in history – Ford has made over 34 million F-Series pickups and Toyota produced over 40 million Corollas – the Miata stands as a rather notable exception among niche performance vehicles. Related Video: Mazda Produces One-Millionth Mazda MX-5 HIROSHIMA, Japan—Mazda Motor Corporation announced today that production of the Mazda MX-5 (Mazda Roadster in Japan) reached one million units on April 22, 2016. The milestone figure was achieved over 27 years, with mass-production of the MX-5 starting at Ujina Plant No. 1 in Hiroshima in April 1989. "From the first generation through to today's fourth-generation model, the reason we have been able to continue selling the MX-5 all these years is due to the strong support of fans around the world," said Masamichi Kogai, Representative Director, President and CEO. "Mazda was founded in Hiroshima 96 years ago, and as we move toward our centennial year we will continue offering customers the joy of driving with this model, which has become a symbol of our brand. Mazda aims to create a special bond with customers and become a 'one-and-only' brand they will choose again and again." As a way of expressing thanks to MX-5 fans and owners, the One-Millionth MX-5 will be displayed at fan events in Japan and around the world. The tour begins on May 3 at the Hiroshima Flower Festival where the car will participate in the Flower Parade. The MX-5 is a symbol of Mazda's car-making philosophy and tireless pursuit of driving pleasure. Since its debut in 1989, the model has consistently offered driving fun that can only be experienced in a lightweight sports car and won the admiration of people from various countries, cultures and age groups. The MX-5 is also critically acclaimed, with over 200 awards from around the globe to its name. The fourth-generation model released last year has won a string of awards, including 2015-2016 Car of the Year Japan, World Car of the Year and World Car Design of the Year 2016.
Carmakers, NHTSA to unveil auto-emergency braking agreement tomorrow
Wed, Mar 16 2016Happy St. Patrick's Day Eve. Tomorrow, there will be green beer, corned beef and cabbage, and automatic emergency braking for all. Weird combo, we know. But on St. Patty's we can expect an official announcement from a pact of automakers making auto-braking systems standard equipment by 2022. That's per a report from Reuters, which cites three sources familiar with the plans. Originally announced in September 2015 by 10 automakers and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the agreement is expected to be even larger when the details are unveiled tomorrow. According to Reuters, the manufacturers of 99 percent of the US domestic market's vehicles will be represented by the new agreement. It's believed that standard AEB systems could prevent thousands of accidents across the country. Expect more on the official announcement when it's made. Related Video:
