Hello from the grave.

I haven't been around in a few months, and I never really said anything about it, so I figured I'd give the final update. I found a guy locally that loves Rx-7s and ended up selling him my 82 GSL. I switched away from the darkside and got a piston engine, one of the few cars I was interested in converting for and thats only because its so similar to the rx and is still oldschool.

I want to thank you guys for the great advice, conversation, and tips I got during my time on here, and would ask you guys to keep it up. Trochoid and Rx7Doctor especially. Later.

Corolla GT-S aka AE86 I had the privilege of driving one of those 2 days ago (my sisters ex boyfriend/my friends.) Such a nice little car, the 4AGE really hauls.

Are those Supra wheels?



Had the chance to buy it off my neighbour for $2000 but didn't have the money, so he bought it.

Sorry to see you leave the rotary scene. Glad you sold it to a 7 enthusiast though.
I'm sure that you will get another 7 one day. It gets in your blood.I decided to get out of the 7 scene once. It lasted for 2 months.

I do plan on getting a Rx again, probably a FB, but I'm enjoying 30ish mpgs commuting to school and such, not to mention the greater aftermarket support.

I drove an AE86 once and I really wasn't impressed... Whatever floats your boat though man... Wish you luck and hopefully you'll return one day!
