I have the latest computer flash. I need to upgrade the starter and upgrade to the LSx coils. My coolant level sensor and oil level sensor just started acting up too.. looks like I get to deal with all of the 2004 issues at once...

BHR coil setup seems real trick too but its pricey...

but whats a 600 dollar complete ignition setup that is bolt in and will be good for ludicrous horsepower levels as well as stock relability/compression concerns.

Also the starter is awful on the 04s. You can change them easy. I just jacked the front up. its in the same spot as the FC.

Yup. But most of these people have never driven a rotary powered car. Even in traffic or daily use I love the power delivery and smoothness. Less shifting and more reving! I miss my FC, I mean I still have it but its so 'raced' out i never want to take it to work, its more of a chore and thats what work should feel like lol.

I hate threads like these..... Makes me surf CL for more cars I don't have money or space for in my driveway. Plus I think my neighbors would hate me after I got one.

I don't really like pistons engines because even with gigantic cams they still run too smooth. A 276 @ .050 will snap and crackle and pop but it doesn't rock the car the way a bridge port at 1400rpm does. It's like driving power chords!

A broken engine mount can help that, Knurled.

The ones I play with usually have solid mounts
