Clean title that I'll be able to swap in my name in mass?

 

^ emailed you.

 

I wanted to drop in and say hello. I will be heading up to the Boston area for two years to get an MBA so I look forward to meeting you guys and coming out to some of the local meets.

Also, any ideas for a place to store my RX7? I'll be living in Cambridge, but can't afford to keep two cars in Cambridge so am looking for a place to store it someplace more affordable. Thanks guys.

Victor

 

Welcome to New England Victor. Sounds like you have a great lookin' FD.

Your best bet might be to rent a storage unit in the area for the RX-7.

When are you going to be up here?

Anyone interested in getting a F1 Boston meet thrown together over the next couple months?

 

Current plan is to head up around August. I'll take a look at the storage units, thanks. I hope the storage units are cheaper. One apartment building quoted me $225 for the first car and $150 for the second car. Hard to pay almost $400 each month just to park my two cars, especially because I will be a full time student come August.

 

hey im lookig for a long lost mercury capri its a 73 black cherry metallic with a 427cj 4 speed..... it was my dads he gave it away when we bulilt our garage..... if u know were it is id like to buy it back. or if ne one knows were theres a 73 capri out there msg me .. thanks ~zach

 

I only know of people with the 80's fox body's I own a rs turbo try 4 eyed pride.
If it's a mustang based one that's ur best bet. If it's the German ones idk how to help.

 

thanks man was kinda looking for german, i like the style with the chrome capri letters spelt out on the hood. i know were theres an 80' s style just looking for something a little older :-)

 

Yeah When me and my co owner started to get parts ect we found out about the German ones that where imported in the 70s. They remind me a little of the old rx cars. There link mini muscle cars in look just alot shorter. The problem find them is the people who like them are like 1st gen guys they get like 5 of them to rebuild one since you can't get parts then they just junk the shell most of the time. Good luck finding one.

I almost sold my rx8 to buy another foxbody Capri since there so rare now adays too. I was going to make it rotary lol. Don't need a turbo inline 4 and a v8 Capri lol. If you find a cheap foxbody Capri let me know tho. Seems every one converts them to mustang front and rear or cut thE rear 1/4 out and use the fenders on there mustang for the look. I've found so many capris with the rear 1/4 cut out.

I'll keep a eye out for one for you. But I've never seen one in person. U mite want to go to kimballys farm. There like 8 Capri guys there allthe time. They mite be able to find one for you. They helped find a bubble hatch (cost us 1500$). The car cost 1000$ with tons of cancer. We bought it cause the car was a rare 84 rs turbo . The color was limited I think it was called black cat etc a werid charcoal with silver lower with orange pin stripe and rs badges. I get out of all the rs capris with the paint job less then 1/4 where the turbo rs.

 

Hey kevin! whats up? Sad to see the wrx go, but you replaced it with something much better! I will have to come check that thing out next time i am in the area. Are you still living in leominster?

I just picked up a street ported s4 motor with s5 housings yesterday down in NY, was never assembled, but everything came with it, including some aftermarket t4 manifold, and a greddy tb elbow. Just need fuel system and turbo....... and the rest of the drivetrain..... and alot of other things.

Anyone know of a place i can bring this motor to be pinned within new england? I dont want to pay to ship it, but i definitely want it pinned.

 

What do u Mean pined. Like extar dowels. My machine shop been doing alot of rotary work custom p ports etc . Hit me up. We don't do lapping by the way it's pointless and cause more harm.

 

you definitely should come check it out sometime. no- i moved to fitchburg. let me know when you're around - i still have that spare wrx sway bar if you want it for the forester.

 

Sorry I haven't checked this site in a while. I will take some pictures of the subie next time it is up on the lift.
The front axles do some straight out of the trans. So the engine does entirely sit in front of the front wheels.

 

Yes i mean extra dowel pins. The limit of the s4 turbo motors without extra pinning is like 450bhp.... I want MORE. haha. I cant seem to find anything on the sizes for the dowel pins either...



Kevin, pm me your phone number, i have it in my phone, but there are 2 kevins... i didnt realize that and i have no idea which is which.

 

I can do the work for you if you want hit me up.

 

im itching to take my 10ae out........ we should plan a meet soon

 

i would love a meet soon! lets figure out a time and place and i will be there in my subaru.....

My fc will be on wheels wed for the first time since i've owned it! I am going to get it into the garage and get all of my spare parts out of the interior and start prepping it to paint!

 

Wanna meet up Friday night or sat day? Sat day I was gonna install a box so I can display what ever I want on my stock nav screen in my rx8 . Pc gauges and any thing I can do on my iPhone.

 

i could be up for a meet this weekend in the daily. Depends on when and where. Would be good to see some familiar faces again.

 

Well I'm free for drinks Friday . I normake hit up cambridge allston Brighton.
Saturday I wanna install my video switcher in my car for my car pc who wanna help.

 

i would be up for a meet saturday, but i dont think i'd want to go any further east than leominster. i can probably get a couple other people in on it in that area too. a ton of subaru guys i know always are down for meets, and 2 or 3 rx7 guys who dont post on the forums.

 

whats everyone up to? its almost april!

I got my 10ae rolling last weekend. its time to start body work and clean things up. Also, ben, if you can get me some info on studding my motor i definitely want it done. i just watched another arroncake video on building a motor and i'm psyched to assemble it!

 

I know its a long shot but does anyone have a spare fd windshield washer resivor and pump? I'm going to put in a bag style one to pass inspection but I'd like to do something less ghetto soon. I had the bag one laying around from my intercooler sprayer I took off the WRX before I sold it.

 

Text me 978 761 7907.

Any one want a sa with tons of spares extras etc with a great rebuilt 12a $ moving no place to keep it.

 

Want the rear pump and tank from my fc? its a smaller one so it wont weigh much. may work out pretty well.
