Just wanna say a quick thanks to my fellow 1st genners....

I have been hearing alot of talk about the other genreration sections being rude and not helpful. I just want to say thanks to you guys here for not being like this at all. I know it has been mentioned before but this section as a whole is very pleasent to be in. We help each other out and we get right to the point on whatever it is that is being discussed in every thread. You guys ******* rock

Im glad you started this thread. If any action happens on the thread that is going on in the lounge, things may never be the same around here.

So I just wanna say, I hope the FB section never changes!!!!

If this section was like the rest of them, I prolly wouldn't keep coming in.
I do, on occasion, read threads in the other gen sections, just to try keeping up with certain items. But they can be a harsh area to navigate.

Yeah, even with all my redundant annoying questions everyone is still very helpful.

Without this forum I would've junked my car long ago....

Good job Onlyonthurs, it needs to be stated every now and again.

1st gens for life!.......(with better engines of course).....

+ 1000000 You think the 2nd/3rd gen sections here suck, try getting help on the bronco forums! You might as well just take it to the stealership for repairs!

I completely agree. This generation X, er, I mean RX...well actually first gen RX-7 is the best. I do belong to several other forums (not Mazda) and this one is the most helpful and probably the most enjoyable because there is such a wide range of ages and experience. It has a true sense of "community". After all, it takes an entire village to raise an idiot...or something like that .

This section is my home away from home.... the home I've neglected for a couple months now.

I'm with Marcello though. 1st gen section is the best place to be.

Agreed! I'm doing a T2 swap right now, so I've been lurking around the second gen section to learn all I can about the FC engines, and man those guys aren't helpful at all. Most questions are met with sarcasm and a "mines bigger than yours" attitude. What a bunch of ****, no one should have to put up with that.
First gens for life!

Come on, now. They do not suck. They merely hold it in their mouth until the swelling goes down.
