Goodbye FB, you will be missed.

Well, I've just sold my 85 GS. I'm not proud of it, but it's done. I'm still a rotary fan, and I still have one. Now it's an 88 Vert. Still not sure about that Second Generation forum though. I'll still be coming in here for my actual tech/rotary information.

Congratulations to Loose Nuts California Racing Team on what I am sure will be a dominant 24 Hours of Lemons race car project. I've invited them here to post progress of their new project car. I hope they do.

In closing, thanks for the help. This is one of the best sections of any forum I've been a part of.

As an owner of an FB and an FC I will have to say I enjoy the FB much more. So far the FC has given me more fits and problems than my FB ever did. And yeah you're right the FC guys are a buch of dicks and dumbasses LOL

I wasn't looking for an FC, it just kinda showed up at my shop with a massive oil leak. Clean history, I knew the owner didn't beat on it. Just had a leaking rear main seal. She didn't want to fix it, so I made her an offer and I drove it home. I was perfectly happy in my FB. In fact I'm sure I'll own another one.

Ain't that the truth. A couple of them I've seen and wondered what the hell they were thinking.

That is what I am saying as well as far as the FC vs. FB goes. I haven't even went into the FC section. I don't really feel the need to considering I don't plan on doing anything with my FC other than driving it (if I could ever get all the kinks out of it).

That's the only reason I've gone in really was to search and find out some problems. Finally got everything worked out and the only thing I plan to do to it is exhaust probably. But I try and be nice and help some of the newer guys coming in with some of the things I've learned
