Aria from DC

Hi guys, I'm Aria from Washington, DC. Next month I'll be picking up a 1988 Turbo II from Southern California and driving it cross country. It's fully stock and has been garaged most of it's life. I'm really excited to finally be getting a rotary, and want to learn as much as possible in the meantime. I'll be sure to post some pictures once I've picked it up.

Icemark, who I'm sure many of you have had the pleasure to get help from, was my dad, and passed away a few years back. I'm keeping the love for RX-7s in the family, and look forward to becoming a part of the forum.

I'm hoping to teach myself how to fix wiper switches, and eventually start fixing them again for everyone. We'll see how long that actually takes haha

Hey guys, I am around, I just forget about actually posting hah

Thanks Billy, I am a her!

And my grandfather misspoke, so I actually ended up with an 87, basically fully stock, drove it back to the East Coast, and then spent Thanksgiving to Christmas replacing the clutch and transmission. Up in again DC now, I need to fix some suspension issues, and replace the sun-roof motor, but super excited to be out driving it around again.
