CA introducing myself !!!!!!!!!!!

hello everyone, new to the club, but been a rx7 owner for some time now.
I first laid eyes on my 1988 GTU in 2003 when my older brother owned it.( Rx7Allnight, he has many rx7s all gen's) Then finally after weeks and weeks of badgering him to sell it to me , he finally did on my 20th birthday with a great price since it had a blown seal. It was my project for a long time saving every penny for a rebuild. which i had Ben rebuild the short block from rotary resurrection up in Yuba city before he moved away. Then me and my brother mostly him rebuilt the long block so it wouldn't skip a beat. After the instalment i broke it in right away. Mostly freeway miles.

As of today , its my daily driver. I put well over 30,000 miles on it since i had it. And it runs perfectly. It has a BIG street-port, exhaust, intake, 5th and 6th ports wired open, OEM (Mazda) apex seals, and front and rear strut bars, steel braided oil cooler lines, and it has hawk (the no brake fade ones) brake pads with cross drilled and slotted rotors, it sits on vert bbs rims, with Toyo proxi 4s tires.

I'm going to give it a showroom! paint job soon since i graduated wyo-tech in 07. For body and paint .I will put up many before and after pics when i paint it.

Very glad to be here at last !!!!!!!! next motor I'm going brigeport

EDIT: You should really learn how to use spell check. I've corrected nearly half the words in your post.

^ lol @ edit.

Anyways welcome to the club! Ben is a very good builder I got to have dinner with him shortly before he moved.

I too had wired open ports on my NA before I TII swapped it, hated the lack of low end. Your car would be so much more awesome if you actuated them either with the air pump or electronically.

So your a painter? I should have you paint one of my cars
