My willpower is strong enough to help myself, which I did, so that I dont have to be in all that bullshit. I was old enough then to make my own choices so I stopped going to that bullshit, and stopped taking pills which is only a placebo to people with weaker willpower. This is how Ive helped her because I know what shes feeling, and no one else has ever been able to help her like I have. Shes finally much better and all problems are gone just like that when Im with her.

Youd choose a car, material built up from natural resources from the earth that can definitely be remade from current inventory and recycled to make more, over another being which there is only one of who means much more to you than anything? Seeing as youre spending so much time posting on the forums, you must not have that great of a love life. Your car is your life partner as I see it with you arguing against the fact.

I feel like this is turning to the same thread I put up in December. Ill just leave this thread like I did to the last one like this as there is no point in arguing with other people about my relationship when they have no clue or experience with something like mine.
This thread is turning into the one before because history repeats itself for those who don't learn from it. You have gotten plenty of advice that you are choosing to not heed. Sounds like you have gotten plenty of advice from therapists.

The thing with therapy is that the therapist and everyone else can see what is wrong. The patient can see the symptoms created by their condition/abnormality/mental state, but they can't see the root of their problem. The therapists goal and role is to get the patient to the point where they can see what it is that everyone else can see..and thus create an environment where the patient is working towards getting rid of the symptoms caused by the condition by changing the condition at it's core.

You clearly do not see your condition, you clearly do not heed advice, especially based on your comments:

"My willpower is strong enough to help myself, which I did, so that I dont have to be in all that bullshit. I was old enough then to make my own choices so I stopped going to that bullshit, and stopped taking pills which is only a placebo to people with weaker willpower"

You haven't heeded the advice of your therapists who are trained to know better, you haven't heeded specific advice about your car from people who know better. You have a pattern of your "strong will" putting a wall between you and logic/reason.

Last thing I've got to say is that you are very mistaken about love in a way that only a codependent person can be wrong. Love is not about sacrificing your life for the object of your love. It's a common ideology of one-sided relationships where the person giving up their time, money, effort, etc rationalizes that by martyring themselves they are more in love because of their willingness to give up their life. "Look how much I love this person, I'm willing to drive cross country in a broken car..."

Further more if this girl was any kind of a person she would not allow you to drive your car cross country to come "fix" her. Hell if she was any kind of a person she would have the self-respect to fix herself rather than put her problems off on you. She is probably very egocentric and narcissistic without knowing she is. If she knows your car could be on it's last leg and still condones you driving to see her...well that is a HUGE red flag. Her needs are greater than your needs and she will eat you alive to fix herself. Again..another sign of codependent relationship....

Good luck on this trip you are dead set on taking. I don't understand you creating the thread in the first place, just like I don't understand why you'd go to therapy and not heed the advice you got there. Guess your will is greater than people who know better.

Dude, when scoping for chicks don't go with fixer uppers. Trust me. They'll just break again. Use those chicks as bang and clangs.
Ok Larz, youre stupid. If they dont love you as much as you love them, of course theyll break again because youre not enough. That isnt my girlfriend.

There is no true love in one sided relationships. Both have to work together. Simple as that without typing a paragraph about it. Driving long distance shows one of the endless things Id do for her.

Also most people on here have no life to be sitting on here, reading hours on end of past threads, being entertained through that to this thread instead of entertaining themselves with their cars in empty parking lots, on the track, car meets or simply being entertained by doing projects on their car and test driving them. Shows how much of an "enthusiast" they are.

i think youll make it if u stop let it cool off and fill the coolent several times or many times.

just make sure u dont drive that extra mile when it does start heating up or u may make the condition worse and be fucked!

This has been my plan all along even before any engine problems. Id stop for about 40 minutes to an hour after a good distance to let my car cool down, get on the road again, then repeat for the rest of the way.

Now this thread is just for people with no love from their children or wives/husbands who need these type of posts for their highlight of the day. The RX-7 forums give them more action than they get on the bed.

I've been on this forum for years, everyone conjoins here for the same reasons, there's no reason to intentionally make fun of someone and put them down.

Tag for results of the attempt to drive 1000+ miles on a questionable motor. Don't really care why you're going, I just want to see if the car makes it.

I wish the next guy she is with would be on this forum as well so he can tell us how Kenshin emotionally abused her or whatever else she tells him about everyone else.

These girls do this so you feel bad for them, they are just looking for sympathy not love and claim to "fall in love" very quickly. You both have very toxic personalities and should stay as far away from each other as possible but there is absolutely no way that is going to happen.

I was reading an article earlier and it 100% matched exactly what you are saying

4. The Bitter Girl. This woman is quick to let you know that everything sucks, and she’s so mistreated by everyone. (You could also call her Miss Lemony Snicket, since her life seems to be a never-ending series of unfortunate events.) However, you didn’t cause Bitter Girl’s troubles — and you can’t cure them, either. In fact, you’ll be her next excuse for why things are going so horribly wrong in her life. Your real nightmare begins when you start to feel a little like Lemony Snicket yourself, and your once-positive nature gets overwhelmed by her perpetually gloomy outlook and daily dose of misery.
10 toxic types you shouldn

You will learn as you grow up, you will be hurt a few times, just remember that everyone experiences it and it isn't that big of a deal.

So this 1000 mile road trip plus 40 mins of breaks whenever your car starts to over heat, I am thinking it'll take you a week- a week and a half to get to your destination.

Why dont you, and all others with these types of things to say shut the **** up? You, and none others here know her personally, you all experience all these other ******* ***** that go around in the world, making people feel bad for them, knowing people sympathize with them to use them, build themselves up on ******* people over. About 90% of all men and women today are all ****** stupid that dont know what love is. Almost everyone who is married get divorced these days mostly because of money problems. My mom fits in that category since she divorced my dad because of money. I dont respect her or look highly of her because of that. Money does not define love in any way, which is what most of your wives/ex wives have, if not already divorced you. If you or your spouse base love off of money, where you live, what kind of vehicle you have, then dont ******* get married to that stupid bitch. This goes both ways for men and women. You dont have any idea the type of person my girlfriend is and Ill advise you to keep your plagued minds and mouths shut. There are quite a few kids of today who have the heart to truly love for what love was meant for. My life, and hers are based off of true love, true happiness, the right way that the world should be, how people should treat others, but there are way too many worthless ***** in every part of this world that dont deserve to be in relationships or have loved ones if theyre induced to cheating or leaving at some point unless there is abuse going on. There are so many people that **** someone, or many over because they dont have enough care for the one that cares for them, many that have their mind set on only themselves and what everyone thinks of them. Those people are worthless and I dont see the difference between them and a pile of dirt.

You dont want to provoke my ******* anger.

These forums in these type of sections are for whatever topic the thread is about, not for any of your feedback on any personal bullshit other than the ******* topic.

Those that have stuck to and posted about the topic ONLY about the car, thank you. And for the others, why dont you focus on the ******* cars which is being discussed other than throw useless lectures about all the shitty relationships and piece of **** women youve encountered that have made you the type of person you are now. Ive been there many times in the past, youre acting like I dont know what Im dealing with in a relationship that you never had. Ive sacrificed and suffered in the past, and now I have the single most beautiful and perfect relationship than I have ever dreamt of. So all of you shut the **** up now. Shut the **** up in your own dysfunctional marriage and relationships.

Ill post the after results of the cars journey 2000 miles in its condition. Almost 600 miles on its current condition and running the same.

You gotta be kidding me??? Are you seriously threatening people on a forum thread? You can't even afford a plane ticket to see the "greatest woman who ever lived" Are you seriously trying to say that you would drive your broken car thousands of miles to extract your emo rage (on someone's car while they are working)?


Or if you'd prefer

Ok, you are a hypocrite of the highest order. Stop talking about how amazing your love is and how no one has ever loved before like you are in love. Change starts with you....If you don't want to fight...then um...stop fighting???

Are you taking into account the damage you are doing to the internals of your engine which you will not know until your engine builder opens up your engine? You very well may find that you finally rebuild the engine only to find that you've got bad pitting. Or that you have a weak coolant seal wall that might have been ok if you had not put 3000 miles on the engine BEFORE fixing it? Or a simple pragmatic cause and effect, if you are fouling your plugs from your coolant seal failure then you are probably getting shitty gas mileage on top of the fact that you are eating up $30 worth of plugs or that you are having to spend on coolant to top off.

In theory he can make it there, in practicality no...

significant risks are overheating to point of additional damage and flooding.

I drove my na-t with a blown coolent seal for a over a year and put a few thousand miles on it

Ussually it would start heating up after an hr of driving, id pull over wait a bit carefully remove cap with a thick rag, and add water and to overflow as well And burp the system. Then i could keep going a good ways

It was very prone to hot start flooding( what he may run into after letting it sit between jaunts and probably be the highest risk besides going to far) and fouling plugs.

I just ran straight water to keep the cost of driving down. And kept extra plugs and make sure you have a good charged battery.

Do i care about the damage to the engine? No. it was a 100 dollar junkyard special na motor...
I eventually pulled it out and havnt touched that block since. And put a fresh rebuilt t2 motor in instead of rebuilding that junk block.

There was one day maybe a month ago where Ive driven it for 6 hours straight, and it didnt even overheat at the slightest. Thats about 1/3 of the way for the trip and have been driving it since so by now, that would be around the time I would be getting to my destination. So some other rotaries with the same condition may have the symptoms worse earlier on than mine does. You never know how long each individual engine will run since not all are damaged in exactly the same places, and not all driven the same.
