didn't you say your parents were going to throw down for the paint job? I bet they are beaming with pride for thier little rotor-head

Dude, when i was 15, my dad and gpa used to tell me about "real" engines while i sat and played with my rotors.
Two years and many FC's later, not to mention an improvement in my math skills, and I sure showed them. Keep the **** up, dude!
And the vid link is dead, send it to me onwsk8r@gmail.com and i'll get a few "friends" i know to host it, how does T3 sound?

MY story is long and complicated. I've wanted a rx7 since forever, so i got one. Got into working on it, my dad was proud, my mom was horrified. Since then, i've abused and filled up my dad's garage and now the house (just me and my dad, car parts fill the house). My mom doesn't like the idea, etc. She doesn't get to see my good car because of this. She drives a turbo sheclipse.
My mom likes it when i have my friends over there so i can mee them. One day we had about 10 turboed cars that make a hell of a lot of noise over. That ended that.

okay,
students.eravens.net/14144/rx7rebuild.wmv
Download it, don't bog down the server. I already got suspended for that one. It's a T3.
Or, go to students.eravens.net/14144 and follow the link.
It's uploading, so give it a bit, eh?

Damn nice slideshow.
Archived, hope I can use some of that once I get my FD
But darn! Mad props there kid (You don't mind me calling you kid? if you do please tell me)
You sure know your stuff, now if he only had a true video camera he could have made it EVEN better

But the way it is now it is still great! Good work, and yeah, I noticed the spelling errors, I knew that something had to be up with the "typer" either tired or drunk
But nevertheless, it was great.

Thanks man!

Oh and let us know when you are getting that car painted, it looks too funny the way it is now but it is the engine that counts in my book

PS: If the link is dead, the 7 club PROBABLY overloaded it.

My compliments!

Outstanding job on the rebuild, and on the slideshow, attention to details are what counts, and if you have the patience to mike and spec all the seals on a rotary to find which are good and what not, then you got what it takes to be great at this game.

good luck with your painting endeavor, Remeber the base work is what counts on the body work put as much effort into the prep on it as you did the engine, and I will wager you will have an extremly nice Seven to cruise in.
