sorry for last post, didnt realize someone had already posted the pics. As for the tow story.... I put in a new ACT six puck clutch on first saturday of august. 2 weeks later I drove down to long island and on the way back I got a great surprise....A loud crushing sound as I tried to pull away from a traffic light. Not just any crunchy sound but the worst sound I've ever heard. It was my trannies input shaft snapping off and crunching everything it could. So as if that wasn't devastating enough...I call for a tow to my house. The truck comes and chains my car up.(No it wasn't a flat bed...I know) The guy tows me to my house and literally 20 feet from my front door I hear a loud *clink*. I look out the back window of the tow truck to see my rx7 sliding off the back of the truck and rolling away. It was already too late man it was picking up speed faster than I could. The car rolled about 30 feet down a hill with about a 25 to 30 percent grade and come to a grinding halt against my neighbors rock wall. Anyway 6 months later I have a smokin paint job and I love my damn car. The job did cost me 260 bucks for the paint. I was able to convince the body shop to do the whole car instead of just the damaged areas. Best money I've ever spent!
