HAHAHAHAHAHA no...it's a GM truck. supercharged S10 twin. they're quick little bastids, and are probably the only GM truck that actually retain their resale value. if you come across one for UNDER $5k then either the owner's an idiot or there's something severely wrong with it.

told ya your tint is too dark =P

Taking tint off is a pain only on the back window because you have to worry about the defroster lines. D&L were pretty good and quick. Right by the mall too.

The tint on my prelude looked darker because I had black interior. Since you have blue which is somewhat dark, the same effect will happen most likely.

Dude. You should be getting at least 22 highway. Lets replace the O2 sensor and check to make sure you are not running ULTRA RICH. Hows your tire pressure and alignment? Any wheels hanging? I want to get your car on the lift. 12.9 is horrable for all highway, unless you're doing 120 the whole way and darting through traffic or something. How are your injectors? Want to give them to me so we can send them all off to RC engeneering?

a rotary running rich... imagine that


for sure the O2 sensor can be a huge culprit... ECU has no way to trim fuel settings although if the fuel is that bad its proabably something else, out of all the ECU coding i looked at in college (approx 27 different brands for research) no one ECU trimmed fuel values more than 13% either way

so thats not going to make your fuel economy dip that low there may be some other problem maybe an FPR


on my VW when the idiot who welded up my exhaust reinstalled it he switched the front and back 02 sensors and i ran PIG rich and still only went down 2MPG

at the moment I can't even get close to 120..... my car is being retarded and I can only go like quarter throttle...I can get to like 90 going down hill.... I know I need an alignment... my tirepressures fine, I checked a couple days ago. wheels hanging? I have replcacment injectors from erik that I'm throwing in while I send mine out. and I think there might be something wrong with my fuel pump... it was being really loud yesterday (I could easyley hear it when I was stopped)

Dunno if any of you guys have experience with mIRC or not but its a chat program. Out of sheer bordem (and maybe to make talking to people a little easier and faster) I opened a chatroom for rotary people.

You can download a preconfigured version of mIRC thats already set to join the chatroom when you connect from:

http://www.rayneds.com/RX7/rx7_mirc.zip


Or you can download the regular setup program and set it up yourself:

There is already two IRC channels on EFnet for this

#rx7
#rx7club

There is also a #240sx which tends to be fun.
#cars is more like Genmay
