Sorry Zach... 5 minutes doesn't cut it... 214mph in 15 seconds beats 60ft in 5 minutes! Ask any real racer, its not whether you in by an inch or a few miles, winning is winning. And the Taurus never loses! Funny story some mexi's in a hatch tried to get me to race cuz they heard my magnaflows... Retards, don't they know the Taurus can't be controlled except in a straight line?! If I had the parachute, I might have pwned them

alright han, sounds good....lol.....so funny thing about today....i'm at work just chillin in the parking lot smoking next to my car...just a normal day at work. anyways, one guy i know walked up with some random dude, the guy i know asked if my car was still acting up. i said yeah it was, but should be good to go after i get the power fc installed. then the random dude asked what exactly was wrong with my car....i explained. then was said that before he joined the army he had been a master mechanic and that he could tell me exactly what was wrong with it, by just hearing it start up and run because he had worked with alot of rx7s.....so i started it, thinking lets see what this guy says is wrong...he says "dude, i've seen this before, you have a blown piston and you need to get another 4 cylinder engine...." ......i was laughing my *** off......i feel sorry for whoever's rex he worked on.....that was the story of the day....enjoy it, love it, heed it,,,,,zach

I don't think a blown piston is funny. That's serious business. That guys an idiot tho. Everyone knows it's a V6...


lol Oh Zach... I was playin the idiot card... Come on now! I've met people who don't know their 7 isn't a piston engine. It's quite sad. Also had a guy tell me all about his internals of his T2 listing cams, rods, valves, pistons, etc etc... Though maybe he swapped in a V8... Nope... 13bt... Sad folks out there

So I just saw this and the oil cap was always like that. I thought the same thing when I bought it but never thought anything more about it since I never had any problems... good luck with whatever you end up doing to it. It was a fun car
