Let me guess what he said... A CHEVY WONT LEAVE YOU STRANDED!!!!

I find it funny that my dodge pickup truck gets treated like **** and hardly ever gets oil changes but she still manage to drive loops around my well taken care of FD. aint that a mother!!!

 

same story with my 220,000 mile BMW 5 series, thing runs like a ******* champ.

I drove my FD, working on some street tunning, keep getting some knock hits that I'm trying to tune out, very consistent too, gotta love the PFC and datalogit.

 

Installed the AVC-R, prepped the car for tuning this weekend =).

 

Yes but anyone who makes a LEFT turn (or almost anytime someone makes A turn), they are at fault if an accident occurs.

Because from the accident, it can look like FD owner was trying to beat the other car by making the left turn. It would side the FD owner alot more if the damage wasnt as bad but from the damage, it looks like the FD owner basically didnt even bother to yield to oncoming traffic and tried to beat them with the left turn.

 

I ordered , oil filter, fuel filter, spark plugs, ss brake lines, ss clutch line, efini badges, nr plate cover, brake pads, thermostat, fc thermoswitch for my seven on thanksgiving. Pillowballs and hood dampers coming soon too. Want my seven to start the new year fresh.

 

ha my 2000 cherokee has 292,350 miles on the original trans, rear, and suspension. a/c doesn't work and the dash backlights are shorted out, but the sucker runs like a champ and gets me through my 150 mile daily commute with out issue.

 

you drive 150 miles to work? ouch!

 

@75 miles each way...... need to find a job closer to home. I just moved and was going to transfer to our westchester store, but of course they closed it down in may lol.

 

Im in phoenix.

Im not looking at another FD unfortunetly.. It would break my heart to try to work that hard on another one. I had so much time and money into that one that I couldn't even dream of picking up a wrench to try it again.

Im happy to be ok though.

I hope everyone had an AWESOME thanksgiving

 

so sad.... Well what ever you decide to do in the future I hope that it goes well

 

I worked and didn't drive my car because it's not in my possession as usual.

 

I just looked at mine since it is hybernating...LOL...

 

Maybe you should move back to civilization

 

I thought you were selling/sold the FD?

 

made it run again! when i got back from deployment it was leaking fuel, so i pulled it apart and fixed that, finally got around to putting everything back together over thanksgiving weekend. i also worked on figuring out how to install my 3 point strut bar. need to work on that some more.

 

Kyle: what branch? If you cant tell by the name I was in the Army lol. Got out in 06, so Im finally free and clear. No more IRR

 

i'm in the navy, right now i'm stationed on the USS Ronald Reagan (big *** ship!) i'm up for shore duty, so i'll do that for a few years and get out. i think my wife will explode if i go on another deployment, lol.

 

I thought about it, cuz the engine / trans / turbos appear to still be good.

But i've decided to return to Honda RWD mid engine power instead.

 

nice!!!

post pics when you get it.

 

you going to part out the 7? if so is the engine ported or anything? the turbos are BNRIII right?

 

I replaced my stock leather seats with a set of skins from leatherseats.com. It was a very straight forward installation and quite enjoyable. I highly recommend their products. I would estimate that it was about a 6 hour ordeal.

If you keep an eye out, they have clearance auctions on ebay - auctions start @ $0 and no reserve.

FWIW - It's a little tougher to get in and out now without the 16+ year old slicky seats...

 

yes the engine is only 3000 miles on it, all mazda OEM parts rebuilt. BNRIII's have uh.... 700 miles on them now?

If i can buy back the car i will for pennies on the dollar and pull the engine turbines ok guys dont worry. If its more than 1500 for it though im letting it go.

I did get a new car though (that i cant drive yet but i can look at it hahah)

 

I promised i'd post pics when I had them.

My new ride... when I can drive again.

 

^^^ Always a big fan of the NSX, just doesn't make sense for a daily driver for me and I've already got too many "weekend" vehicle that don't even drive.

I was productive. Finished putting in the Exedy twin plate, put in tranny, new slave cylinder w/ braided line, installed banzai tranny brace (which despite their claims I swear doesn't fit without slight modification, midpipe & Exhaust, and put in my new to me V-Mount setup. Now just gotta custom fab some brackets to hold the AC Condenser parrallel to the ground under the radiator...

 

nice NSX! Whats the future plans for that build?
