Hmm???

One thing that unites us all though, is our love for these classic and iconic cars. No matter what Gen, rims, state of restoration or modification, we are all here because we love RX7's.

I like my drums.... Almost 90k miles and I haven't had to service them. They seem to stop the car; I'll let you know if they don't.

And SA's are way more classy, but the FB has that toss around, modify without fear of ruining it feeling.

I adjust my drums every 5000 miles or so. And I always have plenty of spare shoes as well. When the drums are adjusted right, the car stops instantly.

Keep them "tight as a drum". I don't know if that's the origin of that phrase.
