Well I just made a deal on a 3 rotor FD
I might be crazy but i just can't get enough rotary powered cars.. My SA is getting a new -REW engine (shooting for 425 rwhp). And the new addition to the family is this 3 rotor FD. Pettit built the engine. It's their banzai engine package..I will have more pics when i get her home on Wednsday...

You get your car back on the road? This is prety funny that i have a FD now. The last time Dave (guitarjunkie) was in Vegas tuning my SA he told me to get a FD. I was like no way.. I'm a 1st gen guy.. Well he's probably looking down at me telling me that he told me so. This 20B FD will be dedicated to "Dave". It will be at sevenstock with my SA also..

Congrats on the new addition. And that's one hell of a deal on that car. It's easily worth 8-10K more. I'm really glad to know that it's going to a good home too.

There's a FD that looks exactly like yours at a body shop in La Puente. Is it yours?
