Moving to CO Vail from CA
 
hi guys

im moving from CA to Vail CO for family business and thinking about selling my FD for the move.
reason for that is because i know vail snows 7 out of 10 of the year
so rust is one thing i dont want, or is there any way around it ?

if i do end up keeping it ,is there anyone in CO that tunes HALTECH ? ps1k

and is methanol easy to find out there? my car haves side feed methanol with alcy system .

thanks guys and looking forward to meed all the rotor heads out there !

Snow wont rust a car. Cars here have basically no rust on the.
Dunno about the haltech. But even up in Vail, the FD is usable at least 6 months out of the year :)

Welcome! Vail is beautiful. Your FD will be mostly useless in the winter of course, but in the spring/summer/fall there are tons of beautiful places to drive. It probably can't be your DD though, need something with 4WD/AWD up there. Rust isn't an issue as mentioned, you just have to watch out for the magnesium rocks that they lay down to melt the ice (that's what they use instead of salt, and salt rusts your car), which can chip up your paint. It's only really an issue in the late winter/early spring.

There is a guy down here in Denver named Don who tunes Haltech (but he doesn't like to); he's the only one I know of (I have a PS1K myself). ;)

As of late the RX-7 community has been pretty dormant in CO, at least outside of the Springs. But again, welcome!
