Sweet, but I hate it when I get a stiffy sitting on the toilet- I'd put that in the bedroom.

LOL!!!


hey, this is kinda off the subject...but you guys remember the movie "The Princess Bride?" with cary elwes, andre the giant, and billy crystal. anyway, you know the grandpa is telling the story to fred savage.....behind him is a poster of a car. i'm pretty sure it says "TURBO" on it....and its hard to make out but i "think" is says RX-7 below it. it almost kinda looks like an FC. but they never give a close up of it. anyone else ever notice this? or am i just trippin' like a motherf*cker

where are the pictures ;-)
But I think Max7 has you all beat. I've never seen his "shrine" but I've heard rumors, and it sounds to be a rotorheads dream.

well in my bedroom I have a dead FD rotor and housing on my floor, I have a shelf of left over redline oils and other fluids etc. as well as a bunch of tools. (don't have a garage...) I have a front and rear strut bar in my closet that hasn't been put on yet. and my sub box is sitting in my closet too. also on the floor is a cardbox box with my k&n filter and cold air box stuff that I removed a while ago to put the stock box back on.

hmm, nothing to really be proud of. it's more of just a big mess

I got a very detailed FC model I'm building. All I need to do now is sand and paint it.

That's about it except for my took box in my closet full of pieces that used to be on my FC.

Hey, can you scan that so we can read it?

Yo,


Okay okay, you win. Don't throw one of your rotors at me!! I've got the GTUs brochure, and the RX-7 IMSA poster, and the Initial D FC model. Not much else. But my IMSA poster is DOPE as HELL. It's like the ad in your crapper, "RX-7, now a 100 times faster than the competition." And it lists all 100 wins on the right side...

OK, I said I was done but... I bought and old Tamiya model. Very detailed, full engine, little turbo in there, etc. I bought a Fujimi one before and it comes w/ options like tuner headlights, hatch, different years fronts, tails, R and L hand drive etc, but the damn thing was based on a generic chassis that is set up for a motor and batteries. The Tamiya has EVERYTHING right!
