Smile Am really starting to think there's very few other women in here!!

So would it be this bad for me in a motorcycle forum as well??? I've been acquiring new toys throughout the last year. I bought my Ninja (don't get too excited..just a baby bike! LOL), then the RX7 a couple months later. Bike runs great & a blast to ride, but idles very high. And need to get the 7 runnin. I was wondering if there was anyone from NY in here located somewhat near me. (Syracuse area) I seem to be in the minority buying one of these in the lovely wintery state of NY. Of course, I would take any help you all are willing to give!

I think owenisfat is in upstate NY... He has an FC, but since he did an LS1/T56 swap, I think he's pretty mechanically inclined. PM him.

I used to live in the Watertown area. I make a trip up there about 2 times a year. Next time up, I'll drop you a line and come visit. But sorry I'm not female.

lmao! I've never seen so many offers from people to drive in from out of town to work on someone else's car before. Next time I need help, I think I'll start an account as a woman. RX7 owners sure are a bunch of horny bastards!

****, I'm 700 miles away, and I offered to help. I'm a walking friggin hormone. But alas, I'm with a girl now, so I'm not interested. I just love working on 7's.

Welcome. I live in Port Byron and commute to work in Syracuse. I have a brownish/orange/rust (not sure the color name) SA.
rx7kidd...do you by any chance drive a red 7, sort of faded? I've seen that one a few times at the exit 40 toll booth.

Welcome to the forum!
Well I've helped as many ppl as I could this summer, one in particular hooked me up with an engine for my -SE. There is a 2nd gen and 3rd gen owners in binghampton, ny and they've helped me ALOT. Other then that, nobody close needs help. I welcome anybody help if its not a day of driving, unless I can do it.

We should have a meet, because there just isn't one around here, and there apears to be a bunch of nice First gens, let alone rx-7's.

Hi Klasa666, welcome to the forum.

No, not to many of us on here, dont know why, the folks on here sure are helpful and friendly. Blokes can sometimes be a bit intimidating when it comes to women with cars.

Probably not much. Probably a good chance of getting the CNY folks together. I just need to wait till I fix the rust holes in the hatch drain area cause she takes on water bad in the rain or even a car wash. Last time it rained in June, nearly filled the entire spare tire well.

BTW, I have seen your red widebody around Auburn. Very nice. Saw it once when taking my kid to the ER. Brought a ray of sunshine to an otherwise unpleasant evening.
