lets have a drift event in his honor

 

HE'S ALIVE!!! lol, he just PMed me.... but times are rough on his side, so that's why he hasn't been here or taken any calls.... plus his 7 died....

 

First of all, I would like to say "Thank you" for the concern.
Second of all I would like to apologize for dropping off the face of the earth.

Things have been going horribly bad for me lately. My Father had a stroke, and I had to spend all the money I had saved up to go and see him in Mississippi. This left me completely broke. As some of you might know, I'm off work indefinately due to an injury that I sutained at work. Among other things I have "Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy" of my left arm, and a few other things that should be discovered during exploritory surgery in the near future.

I have been in a great deal of pain, but have not been put on any type of pain management regiment. I have been getting progressively more and more depressed due to this, and the fact that my finances are in shambles. Brandon, you may recall that I left the Drift event due to me being exhausted, that was true, but I was also in excruciating pain.

Almost a week ago, I went and saw a specialist, who performed an EMG nerve study, which means they stick a lot of needles in your nerves, them electrify them.
I discussed with the doctor, my depression due to the pain and anxiety. He prescribed a medication to me that they usually prescribe to people who suffer from seizures, and It seems to be working well.

I didn't want to come here and air my dirty laundry about my personal life, because I'm not looking for sympathy, But now I realize that I have you guys looking out for me, and let me tell you...it hit me hard when I found this thread.

I can't apologize to you guys enough for not taking calls,
or returning them. I was at a point where I didn't want to talk to anyone at all, nor did I want to leave my house, or eat.

Even though I don't know alot of you that have posted here in this thread, I thank you for your concern. It REALLY means alot to me. Brandon, thank you most of all.

damn..well its nice to know hes still alive and kickin.. he needs to hit me up and let me know whats up with his 7 maybe i can donat a few parts if needed.

 

Oh yeah, now that I actually want to go outside, my 7 gave up the ghost yesterday in my driveway. Go figure.
I'm hoping to have my Doctor prescribe it something as well.

 

damn, blown apexi seal?.... hey jinx, dunno if you'd object to this, but... **** son, I think I could spare a buck or two to help a fellow rotory head. I'm sure that others of us would be willing too.

 

Thanks you for the offer bro, but I just couldn't accept money from other people, but the fact that you would offer shows what a cool kind person you are.
I'll get here running again somehow. I'll come across a good deal somewhere. I've always prided myself on being good to other people, now hopefully some of that will come back to me. Once again NeptuneRx, thank you for the offer bro.

 

HEY Jinx I see you are in Front Royal also which gen do you have? I may have a few parts laying around if you need something to work with.

 

even though i don't know or anything, feel better man, good luck with everything, and i hope your dad is alright

my grandfather had one a few years back, he bounced back to his old self in less than a month

 

I just found this thread.... but I was worried too lol

 

hey kinx...if you got a 2nd gen i know a guy here in fredericksburg that has good deals on putting a used engine in your car.

he found me a used engine, picked up my car, and installed it for me for $500.

i dont think he would pick it up from front royal but hey thats still a deal if you can get it to him...

 

That would be great. I'm still trying to get a motor!!!!!
If he can get good deals on motors, please give me his number, and I will call him right away.

I HAVE to get my car running within the next two weeks.

 

Hey, Jinx.... just got a hookup from a friend who says he can get me under the radar for emissions.... dunno if it'll cheer you up or not, but you wanna take a few days out and work on the 7 with me? I still need that help with installation and all that crap...

 

Yep, the only problem is that I have no way up there now. It sucks.

 

Well, I could just make my way down to you after all.... lol, got garage space now? Cuz i'm thinking i'll just bring it to you and leave it there to work on if need be, since I do have two cars..... my idle's fucked up, horn still doesn't work, and is it normal for the clock display to just shut off while the key is turned to "ON"? I think I might have a short that could be draining the battery....

 

I'm sure your idiot gauge cluster just needs to be removed and resoldered like mine. All sorts of stuff started working after I did that.
You could certainly bring it down and leave it with me.
You could come down on Fri, and hang out for a while if you wanted. I guess I could throw that offer out to anyone else as well. I would be happy to do the types of things I'm doing for Brandon for other people. For a SMALL fee, since I need a motor badly and have no money to spend on one. I wouldn't normally charge anyone but I need the money.

Thanks guys.

 

Thank's for the PM FC3SSPITFIRE. I'll try to give thAT guy a call today.
If that doesn't work out, I've gotta put the car up for sale.

88 GXL. Every option that the car came with works. Except fot the Auto adjusting suspension.
The body has 160,xxx miles on it.
It has a few dings, and a little bit of rust under the doors, nothing too bad though. This car lived up to every expectation that I had for an RX-7.
I'm really sad to have to sell it, but I have no other options right now.

I'll try to get some pictures up of it later.
DarkAngelKamui can tell you about it, he rode in it with me at the Richmond drift event.

 

Well, it's up for sale. I can't wait any longer without a car, and I can't be stuck at home all day with no way to leave.
This sucks pretty badly. I love that car, and it was so much fun to drive, but **** happens I guess. Maybe someone else will be happy with it too.
