I have heard some people let there car sit for so long and they just rust, break, scar the housing, coating on housing peels, ect. Idk but being an rx7 and only driven less than 7000 miles who could not drive it for so long. I know i couldnt.

If they sit too long they'll actually just stick in the seal grove and no longer move in/out. It'll be obvious when you take 30 mins to compression test the engine before buying the car. Everyone compression tests cars before buying them right?

I wasn't about to tear more **** off the engine than I needed to... Haynes manual said to pull the starter and out a screwdriver in and hit the flywheel... **** that nonsense.

E-brake wouldn't have done anything. It's a Wrong Wheel Drive Corolla.

The impact worked splendidly.

That really only tends to happen (IMHO) in higher millage vehicles with crap built up around the spring..

WD-40 or PB blaster in the spark plug holes, then tow the car around the yard with a Honda civic

my car has about 10k on a reman and sat for about a year and a half, and I compression tested it before I started it recently and it still has 115+ psi on every face.

Might as well label it pedo **** since Japanese women (regardless of age) all look like 12 year olds anyway.

No it just has the stock spolier with a aftermarket exhaust. Guy seems to be pretty cool only other rx7 in my area (that i know of). My dad was driving my car going on to route 2 when a corrvette came up to him and wanted to race of course i have a 88 gxl with little mods and my dad said no but a yellow 3rd gen came behind him and my dad backed up and let the 3rd gen race an he totally took out the new vette. Dont know if they are on here but my dad said that was one fast rx7.
