what kind of post is that...what i am talkign to a 12yr old?

what difference does that make? 2mchpower had a civil post..thus my post back to him is civil. u on the other hand tried to hop on the bandwagon and attack someone on an unfounded basis. fact is, it bothers me when people are sheep and follow a herd.

i tried to im you to save u the humility but u werent on.

you've been pretty much nothing but hostile on this thread. nobody else had been. hostility belongs in the Lounge.

a simple "nice job" or "i dont believe in doing that" would had sufficed.

Instead you attacked him about building the car he purchased the way he wants. It's his car to do what he wants to. If you disagree with him, thats fine. you dont have to blanket his thread with your opinion. just give it up and move on to the next thread.

I actually commend him for building himself a nice RX-7 that actually HAS low end torque.

i am hostile this morn but that is because my initial post is no different than any of the other guys that were nay sayers. i come in and read a few guys acting like fools that say i didnt read the thread which is false...i read every word. and 2 a guy getting defensive/ being sarcastic and singling out my post when i am only expressing my opinion. the correct response could have been ...well matty to each his own. i like having low end torque. or soemthign along those lines. it would have ended there. but the sarcasm and jabs feed into my anger.

i am not wrong here. i think the rotary is what makes an rx7 special. i respect the ls1 however. those points are clearly expressed in my posts. i did however attack when someone was throwing jabs at me. read my initial post again.

you originally said he took the soul out of the car - the soul was already gone, and the car was destined for the 'yard. be thankful he saved it and turned it into a powerful contender, for chrissakes. he was using it as a daily driver, and didn't want to mess around with rotaries.

furthermore, YOU are the one pissing and moaning rather loudly in this thread because YOU don't like it. it's a free ******* country, and Joey's allowed to do what he wants with what he owns. if YOU can't see that, then maybe you should yank your head out of your ***.

doesn't matter when you started pissing and moaning - you filled a page in this thread with your bullshit. so you don't like it...good for you. want a cookie? leave Joey alone already. the car is a beast, and would put most 7s to shame.

Ran outta time for shining your ***? The topic of the thread isn't "Whats your two cents on my swap" so why are you still talking?

i did nothing of the sort, till you started outright insulting people. all i said was you didn't know how to read.


furthermore, i'm not responding to your little PM. you are feeling victimized because you're wrong, you know it, and you don't want to admit it. did you have to respond to anything that was said? no - YOU brought it on yourself.

Joey,Braggin rights are more valuable to me and from I already said your car has yet to earn them and how convienent that your now attempting to sell it before finishing it and seeing what it will actually do.
If it is so hot then sell the vette and keep the fd. But we all know why you would choose the vette so don't sweat it. I would rather the vette than a pieced together rx7 too.

If you want to part it out though keep me in mind. I would love to drop that ls1 in my jeep.

All talk aside, I think you did a nice job on the install. I seen it once up at the BBq. Good luck with the sale and if you keep it then well have to meet up sometime for those braggin rights.

Best of luck

Well you better find a different car then, because the one you claim is so unique is shared by many thousands of people with the same engine. There are about 200 V8-powered RX7's out there. Better hurry up, I think I hear the shepherd calling. it's your turn to get sheared. Baaa.

I wouldn't want another FD if I won, and I doubt he would want one with an LS1 if he did. It probably would make a good episode though.

I guess I have braggin' rights that I have an engine that runs then

It's been no secret for the last year that work has me too tied up to spend time working on the car. I'm in no hurry to sell it, and only listed it because it just sits collecting dust, and something this close to being done shouldn't just sit. I don't really know what the Corvette has to do with anything. Should I sell the rest of my vehicles too?

Than do like some pink episodes and agree to give the car back. Or don't and you guys can keep making excuses and internet fight. Either way, I'm entertained.

Excuses for what, why I don't decide what to do with my life or my car based on whether you're entertained or not?

Not at all waht I am saying. You both talk about racing and come up with excuses, when your cars are squared away, race and be done with it, instead of all this tuff web talk you guys are throwing around. That's all.

monkey see, monkey poo

im sure everyone on here has seen this so many times that they can recite half of it verbatim but its still relevant no matter when its popped up :-p


Q: How many forum members does it take to change a lightbulb?

A : One to change the light bulb and to post that the light bulb has been changed.

Fourteen to share similar experiences of changing light bulbs and how the light bulb could have been changed differently.

Seven to caution about the dangers of changing light bulbs.

Seven more to point out spelling/grammar errors in posts about changing light bulbs.

Three to correct spelling/grammar errors.

Six to argue over whether it's "lightbulb" or "light bulb".

Another six to condemn those six as stupid.

Fifteen to claim experience in the lighting industry and give the correct spelling.

Nineteen to post that this group is not about light bulbs and to please take this discussion to a lightbulb (or light bulb) forum.

Eleven to defend the posting to the group saying that we all use light bulbs and therefore the posts are relevant to this group.

Thirty six to debate which method of changing light bulbs is superior, where to buy the best light bulbs, what brand of light bulbs work best for this technique and what brands are faulty.

Seven to post URLs where one can see examples of different light bulbs.

Four to post that the URLs were posted incorrectly and then post the corrected URL.

Three to post about links they found from the URLs that are relevant to this group which makes light bulbs relevant to this group.

Thirteen to link all posts to date, quote them in their entirety including all headers and signatures, and add "Me too".

Five to post to the group that they will no longer post because they cannot handle the light bulb controversy.

Four to say "didn't we go through this already a short time ago?"

Thirteen to say "do a Google search on light bulbs before posting questions about light bulbs."

Three to tell a funny story about their cat and a light bulb.

AND

One group lurker to respond to the original post 6 months from now with something unrelated and start it all over again . . .

I understand why some get mad at the swap and I myself am a rotary guy. I appreciate the work and the benifits the V8 brings, mostly reliability. I give him props for the work, time and money spent.
Different strokes for different folks.
