Just pictures of the Cosmo itself. Oh, and no p-port now. I forgot about engine balancing, dowel pinning, etc. I hate being out of the rotary game for years, I forget about **** that is important.

So it will be just a 13B-RE or a S4/5 TII setup.


Also, anybody in the area have a full car trailer?

and FYI: ...........

Saturday night, the drinking begins. We'll most likely be heading to the OZ for our ritualistic all nighter. It's 21 and up so plan accordingly.


leave your cowboy boots at home

any questions, just ask

Location is a secret. It's not in the area though, I wish it was, I would be able to see it up close and drive it. The damn thing runs AND drives fine. I am just worried about the damage on the front.


It's a 12hr drive. I am going to be picking it up around middle of April.

Eric
How's it going? Been a long time and I've been out the RX-7 circuit for a while from work and travel.
Have you heard from Ryan I've been trying to get hold of him?

Also I have not been driving my FD much. Probably drove <500 miles since last dyno. I've have new larger injectors as Kan suggested but have never installed them yet.

I plan to come out and hang out with you guys if thats OK. And if there is room for stand by I'd like to dyno the FD that is if I can get the new injectors installed in time.

My ABS pump is leaking because I ran Dot5 fluid and found out later that the bottle actually said not to be used in cars with ABS. My mistake for not reading direction.
Anyone know of a used or new ABS pump in good condition locally. For that matter is it rebuild able.

Let me know. Send me email or PM

Alex

In the past, we've started drinking around 9am-10am at the shop, I think we're going to take it easy this year so we can enjoy ourselves that evening. The out of towners probably thought we were a bunch of hillbilly's last year for us locals throwing fists all night long Chris and I destroyed a handle of rum each that day, it was ridiculous.
