Just a lurker

Well I've been on the forums a while and have had an rx7 for close to a year now and figured I'd say hi. Tyring to work some stuff out where I'm probably going to end up with a miata and the fc and get rid of my two s13's. Really want to do a cast iron ls1 in the fc.
Here's what I do rb20 cams, turbo, tune yada yada




the other s13 no motor just a cage shell


the rx7, got it with bad compression in one housing and just decided to sell the motor.

in the process of clean up the body.

So just being a lurker isn't paying off. Went to send some pms and make some posts and I'm all kinds of restricted on what I can do.
So I currently have two junky ol rx7s
The FC now has coilovers and wheels on it, waiting on RPF1s to arrive, it sits on mustang saleens right now. It is getting a junk ol mustang motor and a novi 2000

I have this 94 FD that needs tons of love and I'm trying to find some fenders and such for it to become a complete car.

I also have this redneck truck and like 3 miatas


Ask me some questions so I can get my post count up high enough to hopefully buy some parts for the FD.

Man...even if those were the same year, you still wouldn't have a whole car.

I too have been lurking for a month or two now, though I am not fortunate enough to own a rx7 just yet. Insufficient funds combined with a desire to autocross (won't accept any old crap) is making it a little difficult to find the right ride.

Are you at all concerned about the structural integrity of the vert for racing purposes, even if it is drifting which by design doesn't produce as much cornering forces?

BTW...pretty balsy to be sliding allover creation with that giant (expensive) intercooler hanging off the front.

Good luck with your builds!

The FC now sits on Cusco Coilovers and RPF1s. Should be starting the 302 swap next week as long as all the parts arrive this week.
The FD has alot of the parts inside of it I just need to get some fenders, headlight lids, and front bumper and start putting it back together. Then it will be for sale as a rolling chassis.
The vert has a full cage and I believe a stiffer chassis than a hatch because of it being a convertible.
That intercooler was a cheap find on ebay like $100. Miss that car though she got the job done.
