Dang, how did i miss that one....

Seriously, I'd go offer $500 if I wanted to be a jerk.

No problem, always good to find another FC even if it's not in great shape. I have an 89 GTU with the steel hood and was amazed at how lite the turbo hood was, a really nice difference. Send pics if you decide to bring it back to road condition. It has some potential with a lot of work.

I just got back from looking at the Rotary Pickup truck, and the man wants $5,000 for a 500 dollar truck. It would take thousands to restore! Anyway, I also checked out the turbo 2 and he told me the motor lost a coolant seal. Still a great deal for the car, it had a pretty nice body and a perfect hood. Thanks Roy, I told them I was a buddy of yours and then everything was OK!!!=) Good Luck with the Turbo II. Carl

That MD meet looks like a lot of fun. Might have to go up there one year. I have a lot of relatives up in MD (I am originally from MD) so I will have another excuse to go to it too.

Who is enjoying the snow? well here in Burligton in seems to be coming down hard, and we are still in school. It has been snowing since 5:30 this morning and they still sent us to school, this is stranghe because this is the most snow we have had all year and we have already had 3 snow days. earlier this year they closed schools and there wasn't a flurry on the ground. This sucks. I was almost late to school, got snow all inside the RX-8, all over me, and nearly didn't get a parking spot. It took me 30 min. to travel about 5 miles! This town just isn't equiped for snow.

What the hell??? I want snow... my little weather thing has been saying snow for 3 days now and I have yet to see a damn flurry. Whatever man, I'm mad.

we had a bunch in raleigh this morning on my way to class, but none of it was sticking to the ground

PerkyStina

Teehee... just noticed that my car's on the new RRDI cards. **Feels special** I've been givin those out ALOT lately when people show interest in RX-7s. Somehow I seem to get lots of attention because of her. Rotaries ROCK.

Well someone is getting FIRED, my county had te most student wrecks, a bus spinout, and 14 year old girl died, her brother is in the hospital and the parents can't be found to be notified. Today made no since with all these the schools should have been closed. I hope the superintendent can't sleep tonight. The girl went to a school nearby, where I have alot of friends so I was worried all day.

Come and listen to my story about a forum thread,
About some cars, some running some are dead,
Then one day there was a crazy post,
And everyone lost it and that's no boast.

Ricer talking, fly bys, bling bling.

Well the first thing ya know everyone is cranking up,
Gonna chase 'em down, gonna make 'em hurt,
Said ricer flybys are really very funny,
The 7 can't lose and I got some money.

Neon lights, spinning wheels, decals,
Ya'll come back now, ya hear.

Yep I'm bored,

you know guys i have realized just how annoying my FC has become, i havent driven it for like a month. and i cant drive it because of the terrible fuel leak and broken heater hose

sucks being a young kid with a low paying job and an FC.

so once again i dont think im making it out to the meet, but after spring break the 7 is going to be back on the road cause im working all week and im going to have a big chunk of change so i'll be able to do the marren PD and heater hoses.

GTUser

FCs can be challenging and demanding but never annoying. They just like a lot of personal attention from their owners. They know that you'll forget all the frustrations when it is back on the road and you're having a blast drivin' it that you'll appreciate it all the more. And above all else it is fixable by a young kid on a budget, it is always fixable. Just persevere, stick with it and you will be rewarded. The ultimate lesson in life!

a month....try 7 without my FD. it's the life of a rotary owner. sooner or later the car is gonna go down for major repairs. good luck with the car.

Horse

Does anyone know where I can find a list of every bolt size and spec that bolts everything to the engine core, beacuse after the mess of bolts i have, if there was some way I could just get a list of bottles and go out and buy them it would be so much easier.

Smoken'

iTrader: (1)

LOL, i think thats what zip lock bags and a sharpie is for. I'm sure you can go to the dealer ship and they will have a description of the different bolt sizes. I dont know if there is a place on line or not. Good luck!

7 months now Josh? You know it's funny, but I told you after your motor blew about Rick's car being down for 7 months when he had to rebuild his. I remember you saying something like "oh man I hope it doesn't take that long... I should be able to get it back in shape in less than 7 definately"

Speaking of Rick's FD, I saw it today. It's looking VERY sharp. He has the FN01 rims on there with a new front bumper (old one had been a little damaged in a parking lot) and clear turn signals. He's also going to Rotorsports Racing tomorrow to get the car tuned finally with his 1300cc secondary injectors.

Here's a thread from the 2nd gen section:

Hope that helps.

Yea that is what I was thinking one day when talking to Rick. I think the problem comes with actually having a life other than the RX7. You really can't dedicate EVERY weekend to it. In my defense it was only about 5 months after I discovered the blown engine til now, 4 if you don't count the month it sat around while I was deciding what to do. I had to say that just to make myself feel better.

I wanted to go with Rick today, but had to carry my *** back to work after having two days off for RX7 time already. I just spent the last 4 days tying up loose ends on the FD. She purrs like a kitten, or more accurately, BRAPS! like a rotary.

Hope everyone is well

Rob, how's the progress on the Silver Bullet?

So he got the same rims as Josh???
