You should get a award for being an original owner... I graduated highschool in '94 and could not have afforded one then. Had to wait until 99 to get my hands on one.

34. Bought my FD four years ago after I got engaged. Hid it from the wife til I had all the bugs worked out (really hated vacuum lines back then).

LOL my wedding photos have my diesel truck in a few. Yes, it's a sickness

No doubt, time is slowly slipping away from the both us but we also know how to enjoy life so it's a been a hell of a ride both literally and figuratively

Thanks for the guitar compliment If the talent could match my love for it I might be in a different line of work but trying to play gives me a tremendous amount of respect and appreciation for music.

Can't remember if I've posted here. I'm 38 no kids so no baby mama drama. I take that back! I do have 1 kid and it's the fd and that little f+cker is expensive. Lol! I work for an oil fracking co. called Advanced Stimulation Technologies as a shop mechanic/safety supervisor. I work 12hr days at 11 days on 3 days off and have been doing so the last 3 years. Talk about no social life. Lol! I did manage to complete a home remodel where I added 2 bedrooms to the house. I damn near had to rebuild the whole house from the ground up. I finally get to move in this weekend. Yippy!! Rotary wise, I've been in the rotary game since 91 when I got my 1st rx7 (an 81 GSL). Since then, I've bought another 84 1st gen, a 91 2nd gen vert, and my beloved 94 Na 20b touring (which I am finally working on again).

Your my age, you got a car in '91? You must have bought it before you could legally drive it. You'd have been 14 or 15 in '91.

I'm 25, born in 1989.

I've had my FD since 2010. This far I think I've spent about 2.500$ on parts and mods. It has been tucked away for the last year or so due to me studying to be a locomotive engineer. In November I'm done and soon after that it will come to life again, with more mods and parts than ever due to me getting a decent pay for the first time in my life

WOW, a thirteen year old thread.

60
Retired firefighter/paramedic
Bought my 93 silver with red interior new.
After the warranty was over I visited Cam Pettit and had the "reliability mods" done.
And then slowly as money was available I started pumping up the HP, intercooler/intake/exhaust/computer/fuel pump and on and on!

The other day we changed out my Pettit modified 12 PSI computer for an Apexi PFC.
New leather is next.
