I was browsing another forum I’m a member of and this guy on there seems to have quite a few dollars in his pocket. First is his old DD… LS2 swapped RX-7 :ohnoes
Custom duals :excited
Exhaust clip…

Then sold it for this…the new DD, C6…
Dropped the tranny for a new clutch…OZ700 Textraila clutch
Kook’s header & dual exhaust…
Then comes the waste of $$ IMO(finished product is still badassss though!)…
Z06 widebody conversion & wheels…
Phatd Coilovers…
Then the finished product(whole car was repainted):

All that work to make it look like a stock Z06 with powdercoated rims? :lol
That RX7 is badass, though.

Yeah the rx7 was nasty and may have been faster.
Plus it’s hella unique.

I see at least 2 c6 corvette everyday. When was the last time you saw an rx7, let alone a LS1 swapped one. :confused

The guy with the RX-7’s brother is on CRSX, I believe. I also think the bodywork on the C6 was a huge waste of money.
I think the LS1 swapped Z3 ran a 13.8 @ 102 or somewhere around there. Not as fast as I expected, but still a very cool car.

The guy is on here, or atleast used to be…It’s an older asian guy(I believe). He built it/uses it more for a road race car, not a drag car.

The RX7 guys are debating what’s worse: LSX motor or the apex seals/rotary.

guys, there’s no way the LSx Z3 got a good run, I ran a 13.8@102 with my bolt-on coupe, that thing put down around 400whp iirc…car’s got alot more than 13.8 with a 102 trap in it, that’s for sure.1

Well if he ET’d the same, and trapped the same, i would say there isnt much room for improvement. Thats about all it has, within a tenth or so…
