soon to be new owner in NE Ohio
 
Hi all,

Been a fan of the FD RX 7 since it first came out and now coming full circle after years of owning Mitsubishis. Currently trying to decide between a roller chassis wtih evenutal swap or lowish milage with rotary turbo. I wiill continue to lurk around and ask questions over the next few months as I educate myself before pulling the trigger in the spring.

Current cars are an Evo X which has had some mods but basically serves as a DD and for taking my daughter around and a 3rd gen eclipse I use for autocross days (see picts and discription below). The Rx7 will be a great addition to those.

Look forward to getting to know yall as I go forward.

It's bordering on unbelievable that no other "Jim" ever thought of taking that screen name! Good going! Now dump the Eclipse and that should get you enough dme to grab a good FD and now you'll have a platform to really have fun. ;)

Thanks for taking the time to register, Jim, and welcome aboard to RX-7 Club! That's some clean cars ya got there.

Thanks...I have used that name on several forums.

I actually want to add the RX7 to the other two....I have a sentamental connection to eclipse and probably can't get my money out of it anyway. Besides, it out accelerates my Evo right now (well from a slight roll anyway).

After this, I am done unless I unload one of the other cars or my wife unloads me ;)
