That blows...sorry to hear that. Hope everything goes well.

 

Women dont take to kindly to cars. Ask me how i Know. They are never happy. LOL

 

Just stopped in to let the forum know I'm still alive. I moved into my new place over the weekend. I'm literally on the back side of Maryland International Raceway Budds Creek down on the Wicomico river. If anyone makes it to the track just call me and I'll make it out..

Anyway, my fd is still under the cover locked up at my old house. I'm planning on having it towed here on a flat bed this weekend and I'll get back on wrapping it up.


My new place.. Nice house with water view on too of a large 2.5 car a garage. It's heaven!

 

I'm so jealous of that garage. That's awesome!

 

Sorry to hear about the split but glad you are moving to a cool place etc.....

If you need anything down the road let me know

 

New house looks legit! Sorry to hear about the marital issues but looks like you're doing ok based on the new digs.

 

Thanks for the well wishes guys. I'll have to update the thread when I get things moved in and reassess where I'm at with the car.

David,

Glad to see you're making out alright. Hope you were able to straighten out the Fedex shipping over-charge on the hood.

Daaaaaaaaaaaamn... That garage!!!!

Good to read youre at your new place already.

 

Thanks to some friends I got the car home. Still have to pick up all my parts, engine trans etc... And get it all back here.

More to follow.

 

mmmmmm car ****

 

What is the name of the color again?

Is it purple or blue?

 

Majik blue pearl

It's a purplish blue

 

I'll get on this over the weekend.

Need to wrap up the sake Bomb oil cooler install,
Get the long block all back together and drop it in. Mount up Intercooler and radiator, finish Up various trim pieces, get the exhaust and what not out back on, adjust the front wheels enough to drive it up for a 4 wheel alignment. And uhh probably a thousand other things I have forgotten.

 

Dave, what size/offset wheels and tires are you running? The front looks like it has a lot of, um, poke

 

255/35/18 & 245/35/18. Going to be real snug with my offsets +20r and +23 front. Laugh at me after I make it work...

 

How wide are the wheels?

 

I think it was 10" rear and 9" front. Totally going off memory though. I'd have to look at the wheel again. They might have been 9 rear and 8 front

 

Jealous of that garage!

 

Wow. Gorgeous touches here and there. Everything you've done so far is basically on course to what I want to do with my 7. I hope the separation and everything wont hinder this build!

 

I dont get why everyone is freakin out about the garage, isn't a 2 car pretty standard?!

Awesome build though, I love the color! I am sorry to hear about the separation, hopefully everything works out for the best.

 

Lol,
Yea my last place was a larger garage. For me personally it's not the size of the garage so much as the
Location and layout of the garage with house on top that is so sweet.

 

so when are we going to see an update with the status of the CAR?
(nice housing setup you've got there, btw)

 

As soon as I can get time. I'm in my busy season at work and I'm in the midst of a move etc..

Still have a lot of the parts back at my old house too. Hopefully sooner than later.

 

Spent about two hours reading through this whole build. This is a gold mine for someone up and coming in the Rx7 field, being 22 I'm limited in certain things such as funds with school being a pain in the ***, but I hope to follow this to the end.
