I know there is snow on the ground, in spots. But the forecast for the weekend looks great. Even if I just take the cover off and wash it. I think I'm gonna enjoy the day.

How about you?

 

Wish I could mine's still in pieces, hopefully the following weekend if everything go well.
Sure have the bug!

 

sunday is the day to go for a cruise!

 

Would if I could since it's supposed to be gorgeous starting Sunday. However it'll be about another month or so, fingers crossed, before the car is even ready to sit on it's wheels. Have a relatively small list of projects to finish before it's ready. Labour heavy but short list.

 

I do NOT believe it.!
I just went out and cleared snow from all around the car,thinking YAY!.I can get the car started up and into the driveway,
WTF happens?..IT SNOWS!
(I think God is a Woman!)

 

I'm breaking in a motor a motor I built for someone so then I can tune it so I'm already out there hehe

thewird

 

Wating for rain to wash away the salt first at least 2 showers.....

 

^ I hear ya. I won't take the cover off till likely May. While I want to I just see the crud on my daily driver and there is no way I could do that to the 7!

 

I already put my FD on the road and blew the engine up. beat that!
I was going to rebuild it anyways :P now I just have to dig into my parts hoard

 

I had my Fb out last Friday going to a seminar at the airport, came back home still spotless so given the low snowfall this winter not that much salt residue has accumulated. And cars are meant to be driven, you can always spend more hours bonding with it by washing it.

 

I had the TII out in February already! I was going to get it back out this weekend, but it snowed yesterday and they salted and sanded the hell out of the roads. Looks like this coming week will be good though. Gotta replace the clutch master and slave cylinder on it and it should be good to go! The Rx-4 is another story though....

 

I'm going to be spending some bonding time with the 79 this weekend. Depending how things go, I will be able to get the interior buttoned up again (some audio mods, will look stock tho) while I wait for my exhaust and brake parts to arrive in the mail sometime in the next couple weeks. Might even get it outside the garage and give the old girl a good wash and then through the week a really good polishing and waxing.

 

I'll likely be getting the RX-7 out of the garage early in the week. This must have been the shortest off-season ever. I recall putting the car away in early December, and now it will be out long before April. Disappointed at the mild winter but hell, we get warm winters now and again.

 

I've had the bug for a while now. The last couple weeks have been filled with bikes in the streets here. Okay, maybe not filled, but I've seen quite a few. I need to tackle an oil leak down (pretty confident it's a line for the omp), and get a new exhaust. Got decisions with the exhaust, spend the time and try to find an oem replacement, or go with hockley's borla...

 

I snuck mine out yesterday for a bit of exercise too, before it got too warm in the afternoon and the streets got sloppy with melt from the remaining snow and ice. We even have rain forecast here for Tuesday - almost unheard of this early in Calgary, where the altitude and proximity to the mountains make winter a hit-and-miss engagement until at least late April most years.

 

15c and sunny here, I took my FC for my morning coffee run today

 

I feel the need.....

the NEED.....

for SPEED!!!

(Ya, I know its a cheesy line, but I was watching "TOPGUN" for the billionth time yesterday.)

 

Maybe next weekend, or even the weekend after, then I will take my 7 out.... need a few showers to wash more salt first~

 

OH YEAH!!! That felt REAL good. I missed having instant passing power on 2 lane country roads.

 

Yay!..I just hit 15psi...
I waited 4 months to do that!

 

i swaped my suspention from the na to the turbo yesterday and im now officaly driving the turbo. been out quite a bit today and theres no snow to melt, just warmth to be had. already had an older fella look at the car while i was stoped at a light and say "a mazda!? hey, what year is it?" he had a big smile on his face.

 

I've been in Colorado since the first week of November and I don't get back until April. I'll be working on my car while you guys are driving yours lol.

 

Well my day was mostly successful. Got the audio mods done on the 79. Now just waiting for my Hawk HPS brake pads for the front and 2" mandrel bent pipe for the exhaust to arrive in the mail. Hope the exhaust at least comes soon as I may end up with the 7 as my only car for a while within the next week.

 

I'm dyin' here, but I don't know if I'm even going to have mine out this year. I'm in the midst of a some changes, and between basement renovations, a single turbo conversion, and a 9 month old baby, the '7 will probably get the short end of the stick. I do have a few things to keep me busy with it though. I might see if my friend will let me co-drive his car in auto slalom this year so I'm not totally denied the car fun this year. Who knows, things might change. Here's hoping!

 

I did some tunin on my FC today, just the low loads around town. she's running good. can't wait to have the FD back up and running
