my car should be running for this meet, and i'd like to bring it, so that means the truck stays home, i was hoping sean would step up and bring a BBQ in his landy.
Well I didn't get a chance to get my car insured today.... Plus I need a new windsheild.... Should be pretty cheap right? or are they a hard windsheild to find...? I totally wish I could hit up this rx-7 meet!! Are they a one time a year thing? or do you guys meet up often? My car is good to go! but I need a f-in windsheild... just have to get an inspection and transfer my insurance over.... I am just itchin to take this thing out!!!!!
I've never paid more than $160 aught dollars for a windshield.
We usually meet up a few times a year. Usually twice in the summer, once in the fall and then occasionally we have a winter-beater meet to talk over coffee and discuss......well, rotaries of course.

i just replaced my windshield in my FC, i called every notable windshield installer and the cheapest was 300$ installed. but apprently i go tthe last one in alberta/BC
Yeah, I got quotes for my Passat and the wife's Saturn last fall, both around $270 at the cheapest I found, and the rest were $50-$100 more. Happily my 7 has nearly perfect glass (knock on wood).
Looking forward to this afternoon. Hopefully the showers hold off. Every time I've taken the 7 out in the past few weeks (probably only a half dozen times), it's gotten rained on and muddy to boot. I was going to do secret streets last night - so I had to wash it again this morning :S

Pretty good showing, thanks to all that came. And Sean, thanks for trying to show up. Is this the second or third rotary you've blown?? Just 'cause I blew mine you had to copy me. At least I got a video before I popped mine this time. Sorry about the tough luck.
LOL! Funny! I was thinking of changing my handle but can't think of anything yet. I tried soo hard to get my FD back because I know there are only a few meets a year. Definately we should have another and if alll goes well I should have mine back by next weekend.
No problems though, at least I had a chane to get on my bike!
Good meet, if it wasn't for the risk of rain I would have stayed back.
Well, the damage is only 1 apex seal appears to be blown. Best part about it, is I didnt spend any money on it, So really, I didnt loose a dime.
So I celebrated by heading for the hills and going quading, getting drunk, etc.

Damn sorry to hear. You think a Turbo II hood would have helped?
My engine was at 64C and the AIT was at about 14C. It blew at 1100RPM and 0% Load. I was sitting at the first set of lights near my house. The alternator kicks in at 3800RPM and it wasnt even on.
But no matter, A friend just offered me an S4 TII engine for the same price I paid for the last one. Donno if Im going to take it or not, I think Im going to setup the car a little differently this time. First step is to take it apart and see if the irons are any good.
