Nope , Gunmetal and black.

It had a blown reman when I first bought it.

 

Ah, Okay.

I started reading back through threads last night and jumped to the very first post. Can you believe this thread was started almost 11 years ago?! Too bad Zach never comes to visit!

Its nice to see that Richmond has a rich rotary history.

I'm moving back into the area for work, I have an '87 turboII that has been a bit of a handfull. I'll be going the megasquirt route hopefully in February to eliminate any of the stock electronics associated with engine management and start building from there. My daily is an '04 mini cooper S lowered (slightly), 15% pulley, CAI, catback, dunlop direzza II and stoptech brake pads.

Is anyone planning on going to the Dragon (US129 in TN) this year? I went to grad school not far from there and saw a big group of RX7's and 8's in the spring. If my RX7 is in good shape by then I'd be down to caravan down.

 

I'll be going. DGRR. My son goes to school in Swannanoa, so I go down a couple times a year.
Hope to see you here in the River City.

 

ill be going!

 

Richmond rotary people need to come on out to the bi-weekly Cars & Coffee Richmond event
Cars & Coffee Richmond, the largest informal mature gathering of car enthusiast and their cars in Richmond, VA
in addition to the Friday night Starbux meet of course

 

Saturday is a workday. See ya some Friday night.

 

Was just thinking about going to that today. Don't have my FD with me but I still would like to see some cars.

 

Found this cherry little unit yesterday. It's on the lower lot of VA Cars Inc off of Rte 60. They're asking 2k$ for it. I offered them 1k$ and they said no way. The salesman said it was going to be in an auction later this week, but he didn't know which one.



It's an 87, Auto, GXL. Only has 87,9xx miles on it. Anyone know who the previous owner was? It's crazy clean, and the rear seats are pretty much intact. It was previously maroon, but the black respray is very nice looking.

 

Nice specimen. Last month I got the rear end from a low mile 87 GXL automatic at CAP. It was gold and had been totaled 16 years ago. Must have sat in a shed for years til they decided to junk it.

 

Registered for DGRR and reserved a room last nite. Y'all going?

 

im going! staying at microtel

 

Well I'm having list of fun today taking out the old flywheel and clutch and putting in a 12lb flywheel and spec stage 2 clutch

 

See ya there! In hoping to drive down Thursday night and see my son at Warren Wilson College outside of Asheville.

 

Good luck with that 52mm nut, lol.

 

The damn flywheel was harder to get off then the flywheel nut

 

Really? That has never been my experience, but congrats! Lol. Where in Chesterfield are you? What do you drive?

 

Right by the courthouse and it's a 1990 gxl

 

Nice, what color? I rarely see other FC's around C-field.

 

White

 

Oh is that the one with the large dent in the rear quarter panel?

 

Yep that one be mine

 

ok so i have a few stupid questions

first off are the dashes the same between the s4 and s5
and the second is do any of yall know pick and pull yards that have any rx7's in them bc im in desperate need of a dash in better shape then mine almost al of the important screw holes in mine are broke due to brittleness

 

Every day I check www.chesterfieldauto.com to see what comes up. They come and go.
