Who, Besides Me Thinks There Should Be A N/a Link?

I have just seen too much confusion, and people asking, "is your car an N/A or a turbo? Because if its a turbo,blah blah blah, and if its an N/A, blah blah blah" I just think it would be convient, and Im sure a lot of you guys think it would too.

i think there should be a separate turbo link.........


it must be soooooooooo difficult to type those 8 words.


sorry i am just kind of fed up with some of the turbo guys. yeah most of em are alright but some of them have this N/As are junk attitude that only pisses the n/a guys off and doesnt really get anything done.

and then there are jerks like rarestrx who seem to think they have the right to judge everyone and their cars.

too much bull$hit and not enough useful info

haha

when I was quite the newbie, RarestRX gave me a hell of a time now, but since then hes been alright, and actually helped me out somtimes. Give em time, hell come around. But yeah, some turbo guys act as if the N/A was a waste of time. Must just be jealous that we dont have to waste our time always working on a turboed engine.

My NA was a waste of time and money. And I haven't had to work on my TII since I put it on the road two months ago

Technically, I do have an NA still, but its an FB. The only NA RX-7 I'd ever own

The seperate turbo/NA forum was already discussed, and decided against. So its probably not gonna happen.

Rarestrx does not have a turbo, infact he is fairly anti-turbo, just for the record. Most NA guys just bitch too much (me included )

There's far too much in common with the rest of the cars to justify a split.

I dont bitch, period...I personally love my N/A. I think that the next 7 I am gonna get is going to be a Turbo, but thats because I want one of each. But unlike some people, I am completely happy with my N/A.

i know that rarestrx doesnt have a TII, (last time i checked they werent rare) but i just dont like a lot of the stuff he says. especially on the TII hood on N/a thread.

i also dont think that we should have sperate forums, i just think we all need to get off of our high horses and level with one another.

Yo,


Dang guys, you're making me blush! Quit talkin' about me! *grin*


Yep, I've got a GTUs.

Yep, I'm rabidly Pro-NA, which might be construed as Anti-Turbo. That's why I yelled at ItsNicetoBurnRice, he was suckin' up to those turbo guys! *grin* It's also why I don't like seeing TII hoods on an NA. Be proud of the fact you don't have an intercooler sitting ontop of your 13B and that you can rail all day without worry.

And Felix? Shaddap! *grin*

come on people an rx-7 is an rx-7 no matter if its turbo or not. just be proud that you are driving a true sports car. and a sports car isn't determined by how fast it is only. I personally love my turbo but an na has that lovely power on demand, sure it isn't as much as a spooled turbo but it's still fun. and thats all that matters.

I'm a big N/A fan to, but having two seperate forums isn't worth it. We are all FC's

Do N/A owners generally look down on us TII owners? It seems like that's the attitude, and it doesn't make sense to me.

There are pro's and con's to owning either one.
If either a n/a or TII owner is so narrow-minded and immature to think one is better than the other, then obviously someone needs to get their diaper changed.

I've always thought the purpose of this forum was to help each other and stay informed.. not rag on the other members for what kind of FC it is. Turbo, Supercharged, V8/V6 conversion, n/a, whatever. It's still an FC and that's all that matters.
