I didn't own this one when towed, I bought it soon after. (I forgot why it's being towed but it cost my friend around 50$ to fix once he got it home)

The worst I had to do was push my FC 1.5 blocks after my clutch slave went kaput at a red light. It was stupid hot out and I was struggling. A bum came out of nowhere and helped me push it half a block. I gave him 2 dollars for his bus ticket

It's been such a long time. Took this while riding in the tow truck after spending the night sleeping in the hatch after my rear rotor gave. She is now w/BDC e.e my wallet and I are going to have a heart attack. Lol I know there is a 5 sec clip somewhere too.

Old oil cooler lines burst on my old car 2 years ago, didn't notice till I saw 0 on the oil pressure gauge. Came to a halt instantly and called AAA Saved the motor luckily! Didn't take a pic of it on the tow rig though (still had a crap phone)

not an rx7 but my old sr20 s13 in 2006..
with a couple guys had a nice canyon run then stopped at denny's.. car wouldnt start back up. diagnosed it was the fuel pump. I had installed a 300zx Z32 fuel pump that I got from the junk yard and saved it for my swap... Never chance a used fuel pump even though it did work for a while. Replaced it with a Walboro and it was good after that.


expensive hks fmic kissing the ground while being pulled up the flat bed =(

I had it towed a few times prior to sr20 swap when alternator belts would break.. Would try ziptie belts etc.. I was probably 20 miles from home one time when I lost a belt and was gonna get it towed home and the tow truck guy said "Its late, you could try driving it on the battery down the freeway straight, just leave your lights off and go for it".. Did that and what an adventure.. luckily no one else was on the freeway. lol

December 2010 . FC goes pop
Luckily just a few blocks away from home in a rural neighborhood. Called my folks and just towed it.

My first FC came home on a flatbed, no pics though.

Decided to post these. I know its not a perfect straight body. Little accident a little while ago. Give me whatever feedback. Thanks

The popped headlights aren't to my taste, but I like that body kit. Which one i that? I need to add it to my list.
What are those wheels? Looks like maybe an Infiniti of some sort? M45?
