Turns out my back rotor has 0 compr. while my front has 120.ahhhhhhh lol but anyway after talking with him Im going to get the rebuild with a nice streetport and a manaul trans finally
So now Im happy and should have it in the next 2 months or so...I hope!

What's up guyz? Who is this Ito you're talking about? Is he the one from Paterson,Nj? 'Coz if he is, I did go to him once before and I think he's really good and charges reasonably too! Hehehe. Well, I'm from Jerzee and kinda new with this 7 thingy and it'd be nice to meet some guyz who are into rotary so that perhaps I can learn more about the car..

I guess the previous owner had it sitting so long just dried up. Lasted 11,000 miles on my driving until last week going down the road at about 25 mph and boom lost all power and then stalled at the next light and it was gone

But!!!!! It happened for the good I guess

Hey Jon!... I'm posting 'coz I'm bored!.. Anywayz, I went looking for someone to install my DP and to make me a midpipe but no one wants to do the job.. They're all scared of getting fined by the DMV or somethin'. So, I'm gonna try to check Jersey City if any shop will do it for me... Aight, later!


by the way, I may not be able to go to Englishtown this Sat. 'coz I might go w/ Rod to pick up Gen in Md.

Hey that's good you're going to keep it. It looks like it's in great shape. I'm still trying to save up for my streetported rebuild. Mine went bad 9/22/01. Realistically, mine's going to be back on the road in November or December since I bought another car.

But it'll be better than ever when it's back...and with your car too.
