Because I made the thread with specifically the FC in mind, not the RX-7 in general.

and heres another one:

Got into a "heated discussion" with my friends boss about how his old school Z project car is gonna be better than any P.O.S. RX-7 because rotaries need to be rebuilt or replaced every few thousand miles because they tend to just blow up. Ummmm yea right cool. Still got respect for the Z- respect for you has been lost. Best thing is Im 16 and the guy was like 40. And he got pretty mad too.........funny

When you take people for rides they scream and beg you to shift.
Cops pull behind you and watch you try to push start your car, by yourself, in the middle of a busy street.
People cough uncontrollably after walking behind your car.
At night, you have to park a block away from your girlfriends house so you dont wake up her parents.
Ricers stare at you in amazement after you smoke them in your 800 dollar car (that is 2 shades of red and has 2 different rims)
People stare at your car and laugh as you drive by.

"You know why I pulled you over?"
No sir
"You spun your tires back there."
Did I?, where?
"A few miles back when you turned under the highway."
I didnt hear my tires screech, you did?
"Don't try to BS my son. I have a 5.0, I know what it's like."

-at this point i knew what this was really about-

Okay sir, then I'll try to keep it on the track...

We love the media!

Im a total mix of both of those thank you very much, but I decided to take things slow and teach myself how to REALLY drive, video games and cartoons are one thing and real life is completely different


only if more kids understood that, sigh

My favorite was at the gas station one day.

I was putting in some premix before filling up. Some guy comes running over and says "whoa whoa, you dont put oil in there"
I burst out laughing and said "it's Ok man, I know what I'm doing"
Then he said " Obviously you don't "
I then had to explain to the guy why I was doing it. He left scratching his head.

LOL It was pretty funny.

One time I was leaving one of my old jobs at a gas station in the evening. My car doesn't like to run smooth when its cold so you have to pedal the throttle a bit until the engine warms up.
Anyways, there is this guy with an ae86 filling up at the pumps and spys me walking to my fc. I proceed to fire it up (loud annoying exhaust note) and after the idle stabilizes he asks if its supposed to run like that, with a confused look on his face.
"Yeah, it does that when its cold" I say.
He couldn't believe it. He then procceded to peel out in his 90whp corolla to show off lol

maybe not cylinders (not cylindrical) but perhaps you could say it's a 6 banger (6 compression chambers) or a 2 rotor housing? hahaha

I also get, "Those get great gas mileage, don't they?" a lot when I say it's a rotary.


One time when I took it in for an e-test the kid walked over to the engine bay with the connector that hooks onto a spark plug wire to give their computer the rpm. He was hovering there, looking back and forth (kinda like a dog that sees a porcupine for the 2nd time, ) went to hook it onto a vacuum hose, stopped, looked around some more, then turned to me and said, "Does this car have spark plugs?"

Spaceship

I drove around this girl at times and she would always call my car a spaceship because of it's acceleration, top speed, and looks. Before I turned the key, i'd always hear "3...2.....1.....ignition....houston...we have liftoff"
