This guys definitely knows his car @ 3:10
thank you very much, sir.
God you are lucky you are able to run your FD at the Nurburgring. That's definitely on my bucket list with my FD.
thats true. wish you all the best for your goal.
I love the sound of rotary engines 💖💖💖
who doesnt? :)
badass when he slide his car unintentionally and thinking why not just do a counter drift to the slide as a cover up damn
+Lai Yuin Hong not quite. :)
i was trying to drift in the first place... didnt quite work out, but i ended up in a good position for the second attempt.
oh i see nice driving man very fast for a rx7,thought you were losing control there haha
N-Nani?
Kansei Drifto?
@@Sodomizxr that was the first attempt... :D
It was always a dream of mine to do Nurburgring in my old FD. I very much regret selling it. Of all the cars I've owned, even many much more expensive, never before or after did anything give me the same feeling as the RX-7. It was a '96 white with red leather interior. Had Momo wheel etc and RZ spoiler etc. I think it was a Bathurst edition. At the time, I was glad to get rid of it.. it obviously had very high running costs and everything and as a young guy I struggled to afford the upkeep.. even though it was my dream car I had to sell it. I ended up in the AE86 scene instead for various reasons.. less expense, easier to work at, easier to obtain parts etc. Many AE86s later I wish I had the RX-7 today. Looking back I sold it very cheap, even though it was an immaculate car, with some tasteful upgrades. Unfortunately the new owner modified the exterior (kit spoiler etc).. each to their own, but I'm not a fan of exterior modification of the FD, personally. Where I come from it's seen as very tacky to ruin the beauty of the FD. Stock ones are worth much more here. Thank you for posting the video. It's nice to see.
thank you for your comment, sir.
this car is a legend
"the damping setup was not finished by that time." Did not notice.
this was fun to watch.. also when you remember how small 13b's really are and to see them rip in this perspective is so satisfying!
nice drift
Good drifting man, you drifted like a boss 😎.
Love Rx-7!, for life 👌.
That was probably the easiest part of the whole lap.
The rhythm of the engine is music to the ears. Watching this video during Christmas so satisfied as a petrolhead.👍
cheers mate
Very nice build, friend. Doing things right the first time!
I am huge fan of the rx7 and was fun seeing a drive on the nur like this with a beautiful car!
=)
WOW, great video footage and driving! All around great!
thank you very much, sir.
I saw you driving, very nice
Nathan Sijpkes thx!
i didnt see your van though...
***** i dont even have a van.
Sounds and looks (AFR) very well tuned. Nice driving!
thank you very much, sir.
a couple of weeks after this video was shot, i had it remapped again with a proper boost controller which made it run even better!
Wow this FD like a beast
Thank you for sharing. What an awesome video, in a legendary car. I wish the Spirit R in Assetto Corsa had the wastegate like this LOL
Thanks mate. But the sound you refer to comes from the blow-off-valve, not the wastegate. =)
Wow , i'm speechless.
Fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!

So many tuner cars have horrible reliability problems. Looks like you've done a nice job with your FD! I'd love to take my FD there as well, but that will never happen. It's just too far away from middle USA. Thanks for the video!
thank you very much dude. well, at least you have the video, making it easier for you to imagine what it would be like.
im very looking forward to drive the ring with my new FD. i hope, i can manage to do that, this year.
nice
Bro i like your wild driving at rwd. Loves from Malaysia.
=)
Damn that stiff damping....
But nice driving mate,keep it up
i have uploaded another lap with a time of 8:03 and the dampers were much better set up then.
but the coilovers werent the best anyway...
081588101 yeah i've seen that video,it much better....dammnn your car sound.....so good
yea, but i have been a dumbass and crashed it. :(
Need more of this!!! Mazda rotary engines at the Nurburgring...want to see a seriously modified 3 rotor big Turbo "well tuned" in action there...in an FD or Rx-8 body...or both!!!
I hope i will be able to do it again next year. 🙏
Did a lap real early in the morning, but a toyota gt86 rental didnt looked in the mirrors so I almost crashed hard, so that was my only lap =D
Sehr Geil :)
Casually drifts 😂 almost like an angry, "I messed up on this turn, might as well drift it to let off some steam," kind of drift 😂 @ 3:09
I messed up the first one, because i tried to drift the first one as well and then combine it.=)
右ハンドル車ですね
日本車を愛してくれてありがとう。
コメントありがとう。 私の意見では、マツダRX - 7 FDは、すべての時間の中で最もエキサイティングなスポーツカーの一つです。
Holy shit! Dude your driving is decent!
Thank you very much, sir.
Fantastic, I halos have an FD. Is it modified at all? I am not confident at all with mine and I think the suspension is tired. It doesn't feel like the car hats meant to be one of the best handling cars made.
m8, I noticed the damping setup, that suspension is not set for that kind of track, too harsh... try softer damping/rebound settings and a medium anti.roll bar, loosing time in alot of corners.. and for example... after cornet 2 you are not able to go flat out because the suspension in just bouncing the car arround... you should be able to reach the 8 min flat if u try that... give us your damper settings plans?
Renato Ribeiro have a look at the description, the other comments and maybe some of my other videos. you will find the answer to every question, in case you really might be interested.
I agree, i saw it bouncing about like crazy, definitely not set up for this kind of track.
3:10
*DEJA VU*
Hit the shift warning buzzer right around 6 min, too funny.
Do you do the work on the car yourself? Absolutely great car and beautiful driving.
thank you. most of the stuff on this car was done by myself with the help of a lot of friends. not everything though.
Great great driving. What rim offsets / width are you running ?
thank you :)
8x17 and 9x17,
im not sure about the offset,something around 35mm.
you can find out more about the car on my channel.
Awesome car and lap. I hope to get myself there soon. May I ask what exactly a RE Amemiya Spark Amplifier is?
Urnimin is it ignition amplifier? maybe i dont know the exact translation...
Urnimin Gives a bigger/stronger spark to the spark plugs.
Can you tell us about your suspension setup?
plz have a look at the description and some of the other comments.
Top ! Hatte der M3 am Anfang keine Lust oder ging nix mehr :D ?
der war sicher nicht mit vollem tempo unterwegs, aber als ich ihn überholt habe, stand er voll auf dem pinsel. :)
We both have the same turbo among some other things, my fd is around 400hp. Is that ab the power you're lookin at?
The car is long gone, unfortunately. I crashed it 6 years ago. Had it on the dyno, i believe it was 325whp. I have a video from that day on my channel.
Dampers very stiff for the Nords. Lots of skittering in corners as a result. Good driving to compensate.
WOW MAN how stiff is that :) what suspension are u using?
geo pouros check description :)
you need some recaro pole positions. single turbo? or twin turbos?
michael flores yes, i do! i also need some 4 point harnesses!!
its a single turbo, check description. :)
Do you have a Angle kit?
what is that?
What shifter is that? The shift action looks really short and snappy, must feel nice.
Some short shifter, i have no idea which brand it is. Im using it now in my current FD. But shifting is not as nice, as it was in this one, though i also have the very same gearbox as in the video in it. Not sure whats the reason yet. So a smooth shifting is not just a result of a good short shifter. Everything of the power transmission has to be in good order to get a good shifting feel.
But your are right, shifting was a breeze in my old FD.
@@081588101 Thank you for your reply. Ah so the smooth looking shifts are not just because of the short shifter... It does make sense that a transmission's condition has a big impact on how shifting feels. Well thank you very much for your insight. Some good information that I will remember for, when I buy an FD sometime in the future haha.
I'm only a minute in and I can already tell your spring rates are shockingly out of range on this track...
What are you running...? The car looks like a proper handful with that suspension set up...
2:27 over that crest is a perfect example. That car looks dangerous.
there is a complete spec list in the description. i wasnt finished setting up the dampers at this piont.
czcams.com/video/ttsIOY5FgPA/video.html have a look at this lap, it was much better by then.
still, the spring rates were a little too high, all in all, the coilovers have not been the best choice. they were quite ok, considering the low price. but i wouldnt buy them again.
Holycow - yeah thats's far too stiff to be comfortable or safe at that speed - XYZ are cheap Taiwanese shocks that I would advise anyone against running - not when there are so many good Japanese used units available.
I was running Apexi N1's and they were excellent.
actually, the only really bad thing i have to say about these XYZ coilovers is, they have way too few suspension travel.
Have your secondary Injectors 1680cc!?
PandaFD3S they do!
How much boost?
0,8 bar
och sammy man wär ich gern dabei gewesen..... muste ja leider arbeiten
wird dringend zeit sich mal wieder zu sehn, fährst dieses jahr nochmal an die schleife?
mitfahrn bei dir kann ich allerdings nicht lol wenn ich seh wies dich da schon durchschüttelt.
das macht meine wirbelsäule sicher nimmer mit.
scheeeeene runde... scheeeenes töftöf :D
GCZCrUsTy crusty du saaaack!!! :D
ja, fand ich wirklich auch sehr schade, dass du nicht dabei sein konntest.ich habe auf jeden fall geplant dieses jahr nochmal an den ring zu fahren.ich sage so früh, wie möglich bescheid!
und wir fahren auf jeden fall zusammen ne runde im rx7, wir machen dann halt nicht ganz so schnell und an den holprigen stellen nehmen wir einfach das tempo raus. :)
beschte grüße...
Hahaha bei 5:20 und kurz darauf folgend habe ich gut gefeiert. :D Ansonsten macht es die ganze Zeit Spaß zuzugucken! Schön gefahren! Schönes Auto sowieso (aber etwas hart für die Nordschleife abgestimmt?) ;-).
RacetrackMX5 ja, das fahrwerk ist leider doch zu etwas hart und hat etwas zu wenig restfederweg.aber sonst ist es gar nicht schlecht.
auf jeden fall kann man doch einigermaßen zügig damit auf dem ring fahren finde ich. :)
081588101 Absolut! Ich denke auf eher ebenen Rennstrecken ist das sogar ein Vorteil ;-).
nice 3:11
thx m8
Traumauto und nette Runde! Wenn auch der Drift und der Biker n bissel was von der Zeit gekostet haben. Aber warum die Weicheier Linie beim Kreisel? ^^ Zu tief der Wagen oder was? xD ;P
das karussell ist eine regelrechte folter für die karosserie, besonders,
wenn der wagen so hart und tief ist, wie dieser hier war. aus liebe zum
auto habe ich also meistens darauf verzichet.
It can not be fun driving a car as bumpy as that one.
I’ve never seen anyone bounce around so much in a track car like this before...lol
Shows basically how violent the Nordschleife really is. :)
Tiene el volante moro
damn son taking everyone to gapplebees?
Wut?
3:15 omg
:D
@@081588101 how many rpms is the rev limiter?
@@sergio565 it was set to 8000rpm
should've played 'Back On The Rocks' :(
:´D dunno about that...
But he didnt drive a black R32 GTR
Holy shit your car is stiff!
Kay it is!
5:43 what did you say lol
I answered you twice, but youtube doesnt seem to like it. They deleted it the second time.
cool vid. bike cost u 6 secs atleast too.
bad suspension indeed
your dampers.... tooooo stiff bro
dann schau dir mal diese runde hier an:
czcams.com/video/ttsIOY5FgPA/video.html
da waren sie etwas besser eingestellt.
not ok with the bikers!
Absolutely not! He behaved like a dickhead staying on the left side.
