Smile Hello from Canada!

Any other enthusiasts from Canada on the board?

I'm a Honda convert, I admit. I had a little '00 Civic I had tuned the snot out of.

Born 'n raised in Ohio, now living in Calgary, which is thankfully home to one of the only few RX7 specialty shops in Canada. I'd be lost without my mechanic. The everyday dealership-crowd just do NOT understand rotary engines, even the Mazda dealerships themselves. Can't tell you how many times some snot-nosed, high school grad who thinks they know more about cars than I do had flooded the engine in my poor little FC.

Recently 'upgraded' to the FD, my long time love. And love her to death!

Boy, have you got THAT right! The stuff you can do to a Honda is just getting silly now a days. You can still tune the snot out of an FC/FD, but at least the mods are tasteful.
