eitherway, its too much work Ben, all there is to it, i want my FD back on the road... Itll be a large single turbo, either custom Vmount or FMIC full exhaust, itll be an awesome car. and i wont have to wait for the next two years for it to be done.
i told you to go single before you even got that clip!

the lug thing really wouldn't be a problem just more money i would have to burn. i could try to find a rear end out of old fb, or just get a custom 9". the front would be simpler to get a different lug pattern. iam trying real hard to not sell my car . iam probably not going to be able to sell it any ways lol, every one wants a fd or a TII not a sa. so my plans are real simple now.

all i have left really is do some body work, new rug for the floor and a dash cover and the car will look mint.

but my plans are a little different. iam going to work on the body this winter. iam getting rid of the sun roof since it has a leak problem. iam going to fab up my own with red lexan and a carbon fiber ring around it. just need to deiced if i want to be able to open it or now. iam going to gut the inside of the car and just leave the dash and two race seats.

who would be willing to do some body work with me ill pay ect. i just need to fix my rockers and drivers 1/4 panel.

any one willing to help me tear down a motor and rebuild it?

The motor is complete. However I am a noob and I do not know if it is 100% usable or not. I would probably let the shortblock go for 300 and than you just tell me what else you want for auxiliary parts?

well guys we need to hang some time and shoot the **** have a cook out at my place, i have a huge yard. JJC3925 i saw a silver rx8 near the elks i didnt know what color yours was. i wound up stopping in the middle of the road where that side street is before the elks if your coming from shawsheen st. i was going towards it. well i stoped let the truck go then the rx8 i was in my moms caddy i wasnt sure if it was you or not.

about the 13b i would bassicly need every thing at first cause id make a 12a/13b 13b e shaft, rotors , and houseings. then id use every thing else from my 12a. iam really broke right now and need to buy a winter car as soon as i have the cash. so if you still got the motor then id take it off your hands.

i dont want to get a head of my self but, this winter iam going to do the body over. i know how to make molds so iam going to be making alot of carbon fiber parts. id love to go wide body id have to do so much more work and spend so much more money just to get wheels that would fill out the fenders.

i wish i could find a place to buy a 20b. id do a blow tho carb set up on it in a heart beat.

I meant I'd sell you the shortblock and than you could tell me what leftover parts you need, IDK if you need alternator or w/e but you could just hit me up whenever you found out what you need piece by piece.

New personal best last night, 14.6 @ 99 mph.

This was with a 2.2 60' Anybody know how to get rid of wheelhop? If I can bring that 2.2 down to a 2.0 I think I could pull the 13.8 that 99 mph implies.
