WA New to the rotary...

Hi all!

Just thought I should introduce myself.... I'm Charlie, currently live in Lacey, WA, and a few days ago I bought a 1987 RX-7 GXL! A few of my friends on the board (Clayton - ZeroDrift, his brother Ryan, and Kevin - NAFC_abuser) pretty much sold me on the RX-7.... It just has a lot of good things going for it. Previously I've owned a 1987 Toyota Supra turbo and a 1990 Eagle Talon TSI, so I'm fairly new to the rotary engine, but I'm catching on fairly quickly.

Right now, the car doesn't move. It starts, and sounds very healthy when it is running, but currently needs a new Clutch Master Cylinder (ordering it tomorrow, installing on Tuesday) and the Differential Mount replaced (probably also on Tuesday) before it can go anywhere. It is close, though!

I've already met a few of you at the Izzy's meets over the past few months, but look forward to meeting more at future meets, drives, Auto-X, etc. I'll post some pictures in the next day or so!

Hey man, anytime! You NEED to get another FC soon, otherwise I think you might go insane with the Subaru!
