MICHIGAN RX7 owners?
So, i've been recently trying to find another rx7 and i found a few. i found one on craigslist for $1000, called on it,sold.
Found another on craigslist, a nice vert that runs and drives for $650. Sold.
Then i get an email from a person down in Kalamazoo who has a 88' Se, Automatic. Doesn't run. He says he pulled the 7 out of his driveway to pull another car in and when he got back in the rx7, it wouldn't start. needs some work. I can probably get it for under $800. thinkin i might get it.
Whats everyone been up to lately?

Last event of the year for Experienceperformance. I'll have the LT1 vert out there. If you have ever wanted to drive on a real racetrack, this is a fun, safe way to do it. Instructors are available (myself being one of them), and more track time than you can stand.
PM me if you want more details, would love to see some of you there!!

Saw a red S4 N/A with the FTP's removed on 14W right where it hits 23 last evening when coming home from work around 6:25ish. I was in my Saab at the time. Gave you the thumbs up.

This forum is great and should still be utilized, since there is a lot of good information here. This thread is just kind of like a catch all thread for everything. Plus the local site is for anything rotary, not just rx-7. It includes Rx-8 and open to anyone else that wants to put a rotary in something.

This anyone here? http://www.xceedspeed.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=177765 I hope not.
I hope to be in downtown Northville on Saturday afternoon. There's a "Car Tunes" fall festival going on. 1st time they're tried it, so I wonder if the turnout will be anything significant. Cars 1985 and older allowed... I snuck in under the wire.
Saw an MBM FD on 275S right after 696 around 5 pm on Oct 15th, as well as a red S5 GTU in good shape in the GM Warren Tech Center parking lot; I've parked my FC there before, but recently have been driving the Saab while installing the BNR & tuning.
Yea, the FD was montego blue. It was looking very good!
Spent a bit of time next to a red S4 with black mirrors & spoiler, looked like 5-lug pizza cutter wheels today on 696 W between 75 & 275S at 5ish PM.

I am in the Detroit area, and have a 93 FD R-1 in black that is going to need the big refit (body and engine.) It is currently under car cover. My goal is:
-J-spec engine bay with ARC SMIC intercooler, sequential turbos, and may have a lead on new from the factory engine.
-J-spec front end, but keep the US spoiler (asthetics appeal to me better. This is going to be a road car first, track only for orientation and driving skill courses.)
I will need to know who is good in body restoration, as the rust around the battery box will need to be addressed, the rear bumper melted when the stock muffler rusted out, and of course, the front end. With the front end, I will need to replace the oil coolers (a year and a half on not running, those things have got to be gunked.)
Needless to say, dependent on job and other bills, this is going to be a long project.
