Can someone spare some carbons for my rotary?
That's what I thought, what the heck does that mean? Read this add, it's funny.

So what do you think that is for?
the add says no radio... maybe the guy is some sort of HAM radio operator...(I don't think so...)
People will try and sell anything.
The OD says 80000, but then he tell you that it was changed so that engin could have like 250k on it.
The best point is the one made about the car never being allowed to warm up. The distance traveled is 5 miles round trip... the lazy bastard could walk to work...
Do you think he is charging extra for the Racing (riceing) muffler?

Ok, on another note, the SAs odometers only went to 99,999 so it could have 80,000 or 580,000, there is no way of knowing. My SA has 105,000, but the odo says 5,000!!!
Oh and did anyone else notice the giant shift ****? come on, the shift in the SAs is long enough!

some of you guys are idiots sometimes. screw the milage!$1000 for an sa (light as hell) 7 with very little rust. My car is 6 years newer and rusted to ****. He obviously doesnt know **** about the car and neither does his mechanic. Lets see, no rats nest.... doesnt run right.... whistling noise... duh, vaccuum leak. easy fix and drive it home. It still runs so chances are good its rebuildable. I see a nice project car.

I wasn't saying that the car wouldn't be a good purchase, I was just saying that there is no way to know the actual milage of the car. I think that it would be a very good car to work on and have fun with. Hopefully an rx-7 lover will pick this one up and fix it.

I've seen quite a few sa's the past couple weeks for way under 1,000! Nice ones too!

SHoudl go look up the curb weight

Banned. I got OWNED!!!
I've always heard they were heavier, but stiffer. For pretty much any class you'd want to race it in, you'd need to add weight, so I don't see that as a problem. My '79 customer car has about 50# of lead in it, and it's still not quite up to minimum weight, and it still has useless **** that can be taken off!
Time to tin the frame...

Hmmm, Interesting stuff. So the stiffer SA might be the better car on the track huh? I've been starting to really like the looks of them to, I used to think the 84-85's looked way better but I kinda like the bumpers on the SA now. Might have to pick one up to go with my 85 gsl-se.
Anybody got time to research the weights on the first gens?
