I checked Mike but I think my last power unit went to Carlos, I only have a couple of manual boxes.

Looks like Martin is your man.

His description of DND was pretty much spot on. Was just a dinner amongst friends that turned into something more, so we just made it a regular thing.

And it has the new SkyActive-R as well.

Ray has been secretly working with Mazda R&D testing
this new SkyActive-R in his Mazda crossover. That explains
why he's so vociferous about it all the time.

Let's learn to spell it Tim: SkyActiv-R, without an e.

As in: This ain't going in no electonic car.

The Mazda Engineers, not to mention the Rotary Gods, would not allow it.

So I have news, and you heard it here first Mr. Tim.

The new RX-7 is a Nikki-fueled 12A with SkyActiv technology.

And a blue air intake. With pop-up headlights. Round pop-up headlights.

And don't forget most importantly, it will have a rats nest...

That's awesome we get the rotary back! I just hope they don't gum it up and make it a 4 door like the rx8.

Brett had the pump plugs and two clips for her, just gotta get two more and then get it all installed. Finding time for me to go up there and install it has been the hardest part.

Looks like I was right about the pop up headlights, and they're even using the retro X wheels on it, very nice touch.

Can't wait to see that SkyActiv rat's nest.

Ray notice the plus wheels are aligned, looks like they included the OCD option
to keep them always aligned.

Would have looked better with waffles IMHO.

Yep, + wheels, OCD, and rats nest. It just does not get any better than that. Where do I sign up to buy one?

Actually Mike, you already have something better than a RX-Vision Rotary Sports Car.

You have a 1st gen RX-7. Just needs a fresh coat of that Tender Blue to be everybody's envy.

I can't make it this evening Mike, work is getting in the way.

I did find this really nice SE for sale though, white of course:

Anyone planning to come out tonight, besides me?

I want to give Taco Mac a reminder.

BTW, I am pretty sure that is Kevin's car ^.
