if you don't research until your brain explodes, chances are the FD will rape you.

When I was a newb, I remember I didn't know which was the charge relief or the blow off valve.

I remember my car was leaking coolant and I continued to drive it ( was a huge break in the lower rad. hose) how stupid of me. I pad a shop 85 dollars to replace this hose.

Check out the NW section for local meets and events. Hope to see you in person one day. I would love to check out the FD. I got a VR one too. =]

Did you buy it out of state? I saw a clean VR one on the freeway and I drove along with it for a few miles until I had to split. Was that you by any chance?

There are some that are coordinated with other mazda meets but not always the same. You bought the 7 out right? Don't expect a title if you took a loan for it.

Wait, is your FD mostly stock? I did see a VR FD in Bothell a few times. I wonder if it's the same one.

Yeah I paid cash for it. The previous owner held a loan in CA so that is the hold up.

It was probably me you saw. I've had this thing about a week and have put like 600 miles on it already! Right now it is pretty stock looking.. except for 18" mazdaspeed6 rims on it, a loud *** hks exhaust (I just got a silencer yesterday... thank God!) and one more thing... no front bumper! The guy sold it to me with it off and I just haven't put it back on yet

I'm going to be in Cali and Hawaii the next month basically but I'm sure I will be seeing you at some events and such!

No, it must be a different car then. The FD I've seen was a while back and it had the stock 17s on it. Have fun and see you soon then.
