Anybody want to buy that fd that I found? I知 thinking that I知 going to sell it and pay off part of my school loan, and do some more work on my turbo fc.
Good:
Touring
73000 miles
Good compression
Boosts good
Good body.
Mostly stock
Bad:
no 5th gear (no grinding like a bad synkro (sp), just nothing there)
Rear bumper is burnt
Needs some miner body work and paint (there is some plastic in the fender that needs to be ground out and done right, nothing major)
Dash is painted red
Pm or call me if you are interested, I知 not sure how much to ask for it, so I will consider offers.

I had several people ask for better pictures of the damage and of the inside, I will get that up on Sunday (I知 kind of busy this week), but I will say that the inside is good (except for the dash), with no missing pieces. And most people would not see the plastic in the fender if it were not chipped.
I am not considering trades.

I have decided to ask $10,000 for the car, some might say that that is a bit high, but I知 gong on the fact that a roller can go for $5-6,000 and one in good shape for $15-20,000 so I知 shooting for the middle. If I don稚 get that here I知 going to e-bay it.

They'll have to pry my unmolested FD from my cold dead hands... once the engine is back in, of course.

Hey guys,
I'm trying to sell a 12a out of a my 85 project car that never got far! Under 1000 miles on the rebuild, streetported. Built by Chris Rogers in VA Beach a few years back. I paid $1600.. At this point, I'm extremely flexible on the price. PM or call me at 757-650-3199

Ambient temperature theory: CONFIRMED
I started up the 90 black FC that I've been having coolant seal issues with.
Nothing, no smoke and no bubbles in the coolant.
So once the ambient air temp is over 70 degrees the issue disappears, which leads me to believe the seal maybe ok but one of the housings maybe warped.
Either way guess I'll be running it for at least half the autocross season.
In other news, I'm in the process of picking up an '01 BMW 325i

no he lived in PA, I will post pics up maybe sometime this week. I drove it around all day today and did not take pics 
Motor now has 7k miles on it built by the guys at rx7store.com in 2005. Tunned by Steve. Running at 11psi with all supporting mods from clutch to fuel to intake, IC, 99spec turbos and exhaust. Body all stock except for a R1 lip. ill get to the details later. Its a 1993 touring with 83k on chassi. Im working on fabricating a better duct for the greddy smic and a smaller battery tray.
my focus willl be on suspension, wheels and maybe another tune at PFsupercars for higher boost.
