T shirt decision time.Well after not getting a return email from our guys that make the rx7club tshirts and last years bbq t-shirts I have decided to make and get them again myself this year.In my opinion lasts years looked like it took 5 minutes of work on a 3 dollar t-shirt that lasted all of 2 washes.
I used the some of the design from a few years ago but they will be digital printed.(More detail) and on a nice shirt also like a a few years ago. T-shirts will run around 13.60 each to make.
Here is the design for this year.
They will be for sale at the show for 15.00
Of course volunteers that help me out get one free.

The tII is right around the corner at my friends House.He use to be a mechanic at ELD and he has everything in the world to work on the car.

And jsplit i am having GoodfellaFD3S rebuild it but need a reman($2400) because the engine was the orginal with 126,000 and the iron failed before the coolant seal but still started up and ran fine with alot of smoke. I also need a wiring harness($715), turbos($300), vaccum hoses($?), installed(around $1250), and all the gaskets and lines ect($1000) ect(thats not everything, injectors and a bunch of stuff i am forgeting) trust me it adds up quick not exactly $6000 but guessed around that amount to make myself feel better when the bill comes but i bought the engine and wiring harness since i get a really good deal at mazda. Everything was brittle and breaking stupid twins i need to go single. This car needed alot of work but got a good deal on it and already have the mods for some decent power(pfc, 1300's, exhaust, and intake. Still need a intercooler and fuel pump soon but plan to make a trip up to pfs to get a good tune once my 2000miles are up. I would have done it myself it i knew i was going to have to get a reman but he stands by his work and trust him with my car.

What gaskets and lines etc are $1000? And are your turbo's and injectors really shot? Did you call Ray @ PFS? would be more local and I'd venture to guess cheaper and with a warranty.

I got bigger secondarys and my rear turbine housing came off(no comment) so it was pretty much gone. I had to get all new oil metering lines, fpd, coolant hoses, belts, fuel lines, o2 sensor bung in my mid pipe for my wide band, turbo gaskets, intake gaskets, motor mount, pliot bearing, and the list keeps on going. I didnt talk to pfs because i always tried to call and they were always busy and there prices were pretty high for a rebuild but his work is good. I thought is was going to be cheaper but this car like i said needed alot more work than i expected since it wasnt well taken car for basically almost 130,000 and the only thing that was replaced was an oil filter. I am saying $6000 including all work not just for a engine it will cover everything i am having done to the car and replacing. It is a big estimate i rather have more money than i need that not enough. But i am going to have my car tuned at PFS and know i am going to have to go through a bunch of crap since the engine work was not done there. Enough about me spending money its making me sad. And more about this BBQ and these ladies and cars dont forget the cars. And stop distracting me from my work i have essay that is due tomorrow that i am working on last minute because i am a slacker.

Pehaps it was late since you read it at 12:01 And guys this is for my fd not my 2nd gen if you didnt know. And got some more parts to add to the list for another $100 spark plug wires and a harness. It just adds up quick just ask GoodfellaFD3S how bad my car was if you dont believe me.

We are . Ihor and I have already compared pricing with all the other major (reputable) shops on the east coast, and we're very competitive with regards to labor pricing. As far as parts prices (wiring harness, fpd, gaskets etc) we're all stuck paying exhorbitant mazda prices unfortunately.....Mr. Crowe is the best deal around
Edit: like Matt mentioned, his engine bay is basically original everything, with like 125k miles on it. Everything consumable needs replacement, and everything not consumable needs scrubbing in the parts washer because it's all FILTHY.....he had oil leaking from every possible spot, and a few others besides that
Edit again: this BBQ looks like a great time, I'm impressed by how organized you guys are

Would you all believe I'll be there... in a rotary-powered RX7
Long story short, I'm getting divorced and had to sell EVERYTHING pretty much except the house - it's in my name now and I'm basically starting over. I picked up a 91 NA in excellent shape from a fellow member in North Carolina.
By the BBQ I should have my stereo installed, the windows tinted, the car lowered and possibly new wheels, but right now everything is clean and STOCK including a freshly rebuilt 13B.
What the heck is this world coming to???
