BC Hope my FC won't fail me (vancouver bc GUY)

Yoooooooooooo~~~~~

Hello guys please welcome me to this new place!

I hopped everywhere, Lotustalk, Civicforums, E90post, etc.
Now I am here, the infamous RX7 club. Happy to be here and hope to meet everyone.
And guys whoever plays GT5 can also add me as "badtzlotus" on PSN

Like my title says, hope the 2 triangle don't fail on me or else I am in deep trouble since I digged my pocket into this. My pocket's empty now

The huge huge huge reasons why I am here is mostly 1)I got the FC 2)I wanna learn

And......... why I got the FC? Because I have always loved the sound of rotary cars, not to mention the distinctive body and tail. And......... I read and watched Initial D since it came out in 1995. And........ yes.. laugh. And.......... money don't allow me for a seq. twin turbo FD.

Everything comes down to this minute, me here typing

So please do teach me more about wankel triangles!

thanks for reading

have a good one,
Jacky

Nope! I actually got someone's FC from your area, Maple Ridge
Sad thing is I just realized it was a S5 NA because it has back seat(knew something was wrong with the seats) with S4 rotor and turbo and NO LSD

very very sad was forcefed rebuilt this before but they didnt plug in the light for EVERYTHING had to figure a way to circuit them

now just trying to enjoy wheel spins


PS: thanks for the welcome Kent, but please delete my new thread I made here because I thought THIS thread didnt go through

Oh, nice! I think I've seen that one around town as well. You don't happen to have the stock stereo with it do you?

That's unfortunate about the forcefed bit. I've heard mixed reviews about them. If you're looking for a guy, Steve Wallace is an absolute genius. PM me for details if you're interested. Electrical's never fun.. I've had to do my fair share of it.

Also as far as I know all JDM RX7's were turbo and all of them had back seats.. I'm not sure why yours is different.

I dont have stock stereo
based on the previous owner's review on Forcefed, Marco will always fix something and then break something else now the park lights and cluster lights are wired weirdly just so they work
well I am not sure about LHD, but RHD if there is back seats, then its a NA, if its a 2shelf back w.o seats then its a turbo. I knew this recently, my 6th sense told me theres something wrong with a turbo+rear seats when I was buying the car
If theres back seats and there is turbo, chances are the car had mod and not OEM factory....just like mine
