I’ve been in that boat before, “all it needs is XYZ…”. Not that it would have been all that expensive considering it’s still a Neon. I’ll keep my eyes peeled for future SCCA beaters… ---

[quote=“intense98rt,post:20,topic:24309"”] True, but the only thing is the dohc is over rated compared to the sohc stock whp is more like: dohc 115-118 sohc 109-113 brings it to dohc 23.04-22.46 #/HP sohc 22.47-21.68 #/HP [/quote] The DOHC makes more power up top where RACE cars spend all their time, all your points are valid for STREET cars. ---

Sounds like a lot of the guys on this site right?! Anyway, real life responsibilities are forcing me to sell my beloved RX-7. This car is complete, ready to race and needs NOTHING! It is an '84 hardtop (no extra weight for the sunroof!) It is fully teched with current log books for EMRA. The rules for EMRA ST4 are the same as SCCA ITA so it can be run with either sanctioning body. I ran this car at Lime Rock Park and at Watkins Glen. I am still a beginner racer, and was able to run 1:06’s at Lime Rock and 2:26’s at Watkins Glen. This is a strong running car that handles BEAUTIFULLY! > > 1984 12A engine (84 and 85 had the light rotors) > > Racing Beat 4.44 gears (the ring and pinion alone were around $800.00!!) > > Complete ISC Racing exhaust including Header > > MSD Ignition > > Panasport 13" wheels > > Toyo Proxes RA1 shaved race tires with 1 1/2 events on them > > Hawk Blue front brake pads and Hawk Black rear brake pads > > Stainless braided brake lines > > Adjustable coil-over front shocks > > Tokico blue rear shocks > > Adjustable rear control arms > > Panhard bar > **_SPARES_** > > Extra 5-speed tranny > > Complete set of mounted Hoosier Dirt Stocker rain tires > > 2 extra unmounted Hoosier Dirt Stockers > > Complete racing exhaust (Lime Rock Sound Level legal!!) including Racing Beat header, Mindtrain exhaust > > Misc. extra parts including alternators etc. > > Here are some pics: > [http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y219/Prae…7driverside.jpg](http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y219/Praetorian27/rx7driverside.jpg) > > [http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y219/Prae…27/rx7front.jpg](http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y219/Praetorian27/rx7front.jpg) > > [http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y219/Prae…7/rx734view.jpg](http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y219/Praetorian27/rx734view.jpg) > > [http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y219/Prae…ssengerside.jpg](http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y219/Praetorian27/rx7passengerside.jpg) > > [http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y219/Prae…n27/rx7rear.jpg](http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y219/Praetorian27/rx7rear.jpg) > > [http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y219/Prae…7driverdoor.jpg](http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y219/Praetorian27/rx7driverdoor.jpg) > > [http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y219/Prae…n27/rx7seat.jpg](http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y219/Praetorian27/rx7seat.jpg) > > [http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y219/Prae…rx7interior.jpg](http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y219/Praetorian27/rx7interior.jpg) > > [http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y219/Prae…nepassenger.jpg](http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y219/Praetorian27/rx7enginepassenger.jpg) > > [http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y219/Prae…ountedrains.jpg](http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y219/Praetorian27/rx7mountedrains.jpg) > I am looking to get $4,000 for the car and the spares.
