I'm good with mechanical problems now well at least on the rx7. I fixed my oil pressure and have been driving it this past week. I have had to wait on a new radiator for my subie since the upper plastic is cracked and leaking. So I am going to get it fixed this weeked. Damn car pretty much ruined some christmas present plans. But I do have to say I miss driving the big bad 7. I understand the guys spoiled with daily drivers, U get used to all the make life easy equiptment. The ride is alot stiffer and everything is pretty much harsh but Im getting used to it to just end up letting it sit again. Thats fine though winter time is coming...

I went from west yellowstone to cody, WY through the park, then continued west to the interstate.

Some nice roads up there! US-14 kicked *** especially near greybull? I think.

still in school for it? let me know if you guys need another fc to play with. er quote me a price er sumthin. my poor car needs a face lift. oh and i just scored a turbo uim+lim,turbo throttle body, and turbo front cover all for $45 so i guess im gonna try to blow my motor next year heh. not really tho, so now im looking for a turbo. 10lbs and less but i dont want a stock turbo cause i want to run an external wg so i never have to worry about boost creep ever. i was thinking a .98 ar hot side with a .57 ar cold. but all i can find are different combinations of the two but never together. any suggestions?

They are only 17s right? I was looking on the drifting section on the forum and saw that an FC had some 350Z wheels on it looked like they fit just fine.

Ya I found the link had to check through a couple threads. But I found it. I'm pretty sure those are 350z wheels. Not 100 percent sure if they are though, but they are very similar looking to my friends 350 wheels.

Post number 57.

There are a lot of other bad *** lookin fc's there too. check em all out.

The silver is nice, but the gold is really nice. Sometimes reminds me of the old STI's, but that look is good for the 7. I love microsoft paint lol
