what type doggie is yours?
More importantly how is he with cats?

RevZempoe 11-01-05 10:39 AM

Oh, he loves cats *devious grin* But really, he's been living with a cat and another dog for the past 3 months and just the cat since last xmas...so he does well with cats. He's a Lab/Collie mix...so a nice family dog...and he's been passed around a lot unfortunately. To make a long story short, ex gf couldn't keep a committment she made (surprise surprise) and now has to get rid of the dog. Being as it's originally my dog I'd like to have him rather than put him in the humane society.

niburu 11-01-05 12:08 PM

Don't blame you about the society or any other shelter, Enrique showed up while I was at the GF's house at 2:30 in the morning. So we kept him over the weekend, posted fliers, etc.. then turned him into the Richmond animal shelter. 10 days later we pulled him out after we saw the condition he was in and of course the owner never showed up.
As you can see by the pic Enrique is 3 Hoosiers high.

ONLY if its a thousand bux :)

I'll ask around though, never who might be looking for one these days.

angrycamel 11-01-05 04:11 PM

Thanks.

RevZempoe 11-01-05 07:48 PM

robbie what's goin on bud. I'll mention your car to some peeps...wish I had the cash for ya ;)

angrycamel 11-02-05 01:36 PM

Doing good. I was just kidding about you buying it. ;) I know you just sold one. How is your MX6 doing?

I need to get rid of the monthly payment that I have for this thing, I am getting hit pretty hard financially lately and need to just drive the Honda around for a while. The times of paying almost $500 a month for a car that I rarely drive have come and gone. The money just isn't there anymore. Anyways, I am sure you guys are all familiar in one way or another lol.

RevZempoe 11-02-05 02:04 PM

Yeah I hear ya. I'd love to have another if the funds were right. I can only afford one if it's my DD and I definitely don't want that. The 6 is doing great. I'm having a custom built ECU put in to it soon (megasquirt) and just driving it everywhere now until the engine dies on me...then i'll run a swap into it. You should give me a call sometime to hang out. Things are a lot better now that Kim is gone ;)

P.S. YOu ever go play poker anymore?

onepointone 11-02-05 05:45 PM

well, its official, i am too, getting out of rx7's :(

i bought a 2004 Jeep Wrangler Sport with 38k on the clock. i got an insane deal on it that i didnt want to pass up. i sold my rx7 today (same day i bought the jeep). a guy at my work wants it to autox. hopefully next season yall will see it out there.

ive been kinda out of it anyways this year. i sucked, i was itching to autox bad, but couldnt justify it with the condition of the motor in the rx7 (and that it was my daily driver aside from the bike). i have been peicing together stuff so i can do a track day with the bike. i already have a one peice leather suit ($$), and various other shit. it gets expensive, but im going to see how i like that.

ill have to check to see if there are any more autox's going on this year and stop by atleast one.

its going to be sad signing over the title for the rx7, she was my first car and ive had her for over 3 years now. weve been through alot.

Still going to pick up the Bimmer Monday but yea, mentally I'm out now too, if not yet physically.

RevZempoe 11-03-05 09:26 AM

My FC is a 90, and as cafcwest can tell you it runs.
I don't think anyone would wanna pay what I would want for it.
And they'd have to buy my set of racing wheels & tires.

niburu 11-03-05 12:48 PM

niburu is also a "Dave"

RevZempoe 11-03-05 01:16 PM

Hehe, i have a friend in NC that has a convertible but is looking to swap the engine from an 89+ in... ;)

niburu 11-03-05 01:35 PM

Let's see, the the car was $3K when I bought it I have put in (or payed somone to):
new motor mounts
new dual pass all metal radiator
new water pump
Optima red top battery
Racing Beat - springs, sways, & adjustable endlinks
Tokico Illumina shox (5 adjustment settings)
Corksport strut tower braces front and rear
New Exedy stage II clutch
Replaced the driveshaft
on the OEM wheels I've got Yokohama AVSes100's
and the Borbet wheels my Hoosiers
new Sony CD/radio
all new belts
and even new floor mats

So factor all that in and nobody is going to pay what I would take for the car.

I still have all the original parts I've removed from the car that aren't broken - oem sways, springs, front shox

onepointone 11-04-05 11:48 AM

well, the guy that was supposed to buy my car fell through. his wife said no, so i have to list it forsale. im only asking $500 for it.

its got 169,xxx on the clock.
suspension tech sway bars,
eibach springs
tokico blue shocks
hawk hp pads that were install about 5k miles ago, autox'd on once.
racing beat header ti 2.25" pipe, into a stock over-axle back. (another dual tip muffler comes with it that will fit onto the system, i had to take it off for a ticket).

i replaced the motor last winter because the stock one let go. the guy told me it had been rebuilt by atkins rotary and had 19k on it when i bought it. he said it also had new rotor housings. i babied it for about 3-4 months, and one day i decided to take it to redline, and she blew out a shitload of smoke under decel. it will only do it if you take it above 5500rpms, thats the reason i didnt autox this year. it also smokes on first start up when its cold and hasnt been started in a few days. it doesnt like to idle until fully warmed up as well. the interior is in pretty decent shape. body is.. well, it shows its age, but not completely horrible.

i basically just need it gone because i bought that jeep. anyone want to help me out?

cafcwest 11-04-05 12:30 PM

:tear tear

Damn bro, if I wasn't picking up the Bimmer Monday I think you know I'd be all over it

I hope she goes to a good home.

onepointone 11-06-05 11:12 AM

man that was hard watching her drive out of the parking lot. i might have to get another one in the spring/summer.

bleh...

RevZempoe 11-07-05 07:22 AM

Well atleast ya sold it. Yeah, I have a friend thats looking for a 2nd gen...he has a convertible that needs a new motor. 89+ is what he's lookin for tho. Thought we had found one but it turned out to be an 88...

MFP10thAnn 11-07-05 04:44 PM

Well, it finally happened. I got a ticket for "no inspection" in the 10th...

To make a long story short, I have a bonez hi flow cat that I have bolted in, which will hopefully be enough emssions equipement to pass an inspection. I have no air pump, ACV, BAC, rats nest, etc. Has anybody here had luck passing inspection with just a cat?

Also, any 'recomendations' in the city where to get an inspection?

VaGambler 11-07-05 08:53 PM

does anyone have a link to the Turbo car CAFCWEST is selling , he is out of town , and I was just looking ???

Thanks in advance

rgordon1979 11-07-05 09:35 PM

MF10th, won't the cat overheat without the airpump attached?? I had my car inspected w/out a cat at a shop in richmond, don't have the number with me now, will post it Tuesday night.

Gambler, 95% sure he sold the TII already.
