I thought it might.. boy was I wrong
I ordered an exhaust from Japan and in short.. it either just got shipped or is going to be in a few days. So I still have another 2-4wks to "enjoy" the wait.

Next time I purchase from Japan I'm gonna make sure it will fit on the plane!

I need help installing my tachometer XD.

Anyways, i might be hosting some sort of BBQ next next week or sometime this month, I posted some info on BAR. Basically a small BBQ in San Leandro at my parent's warehouse and we can head out to do whatever afterwards. http://barotary.com/bbs/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1873

I'm also selling my 4 LUG BBS RSII's. I need the money right now for some other stuff, I also want rims with a lower offset. I have my eyes on some panasports or 5Zigen FN01R-C's.

here is a link to the craigslist:
http://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/pts/628296584.html

Rx7 Club members and friends gets them for $590, no bargaining needed. I need the cash. Whoever comes out to the meets has seen them. I'm including the tires also. The tires have a lot of life left.

Might include some 5mm spacers if you guys want.

Hey guys I'm going single soon. Either that or the BNR's.

Buuuut...

Ricks Rotary won't do it, I already called them.. Rick says he won;t install a single set up unless its going in a race car.

Now I'm thinking of going with Karack.. He's like 2hrs away.

What shop do you guys recommend?

If I remember theres a way of getting around it with rick. Something with towing your car there and towing it out.

Ever thought about DIY. Its gonna take a while but will be a good learning experience.

Ya he did mention that.. But I didn't get the hint maybe?

Who wants to tow me!! lol

Seriously.. I'll pay lol!

I could probably just call a tow company. Gotta make sure it has the long bed so my car sits on top of it.

And DIY is a no go.. I'll **** it up I can just see it now.

if your car is lowered you will be wanting to ask for a split bed. Those are the ones that are designed for lowered cars. Last time we had to tow a friends 86 and we got a normal flat bed and they said it was too low so they sent us a split bed. Towed that thing no problem, didn't even scratch the bumper.

and I don't even think you have to tow it from like your house. I think you can drive like a mile away and tow it there, then when its done tow it a mile away and drive it home. But I don't exactly remember

Thanks for that info! I'll make sure to ask for a split bed just to be sure. My car really doesn't sit too low but it's lower then stock.

I'm sending the car to Rick either next wk or the wk after.
Going w/ a Street port and a GT35r.
Also going to upgrade my brake system and some other things.

He says he can do everything within a month. So I'll be good for summer.
