Angry last owner was a idiot!!!

haha well i dunno if anybody noticed my pics i put up before with the ex-owner of my car who had a "wisco performance pistons" stuicker on the RB strut tower brace haha.... but alas i was surprised again by the idiot's mistake

ive been drivim my car for a week or so now and it just didnt seem to want to run right.... boggin out out low RPMs and not responding to throtle haha.... anyways i changed a bunch of item and all kinds of lil crap........... and it wasnt till i went to chnge the plug and wires i discoverd the most horrible thing i never would have thought of....


the retard had crossed the lower spark plug wires!!!!

put int the new plugs and hooked up the wires correctly... and HOLY CRAP its a whole new car!!!!! i havent had a chance to really get into it... since its a random weekend of rain in Tucson but i can already tell that im gonna have alot of fun once the roads dry up....

catch yall on the flip

peace

This is one of those posts that does'nt contain alot of useful info, but should be archived just for the title-

It's my belief that most 1st gen owners are at least the 2nd owner, but more probably the third owner of thier car. This means, unfortunately, that perhaps two or more previous owners had ample opportunity to screw up the car first hand by little things like poor maintainance, warming it up too fast, over revving, ect, or by sending it to mechanics that knew nothing of rotaries!

People need to keep this in mind when purchasing these cars.
We all know this, but I don't see it impressed upon the newbes as much as it should be.
