You guys might recognize this car:

https://picasaweb.google.com/107729081693151855744/RX7

Sadly, it no longer has the motor that was built on the show as something went astray with metal contacting other metal in a bad way.

The car is now fully caged and running a near stock 13b with a turbo putting out ~ 250 hp. If all goes well, I'll be getting the car on the road for the first time tomorrow!

Yes, and he did it PERFECTLY. A New member actually searched, and
updated the relevant thread.

Big Thumbs up!

This way we all know what car he is referring to very well.
Congrats on owning it, hope it works out for you.

I hope everyone knows I meant no disrespect to the OP, it's just this is the first time any of my threads has been resurrected and I couldn't help myself. I'm am very glad that one of the Rx7s survived the show and appears to be in very good hands. I remember when they were being sold off. Also glad that we have mods like Directfreak to keep us on the straight and narrow!
