Since this section of the forum seems dead...

I've been checking rx7 club everyday, sometimes multiple times per day in hopes i'll find my project car. Been on the lookout for a mint s5 in the NW for a few months and haven't found anything worthwhile yet.

So here's my question, are there any NW S5's out there?!

I go to the Kent races quite often. Would be nice to see some fellow rotaries out these coming summer nights.
I have about 200 miles on the current engine. I'm putting in my BorgWarner setup this week. It needs a break-in tune desperately. Then I'll start racking on the miles until a full boost tune sometime in the spring.
John Swide (Legend Motorsports on facebook) is having a group tune flying out a tuner from the east coast who tunes a lot of the Goopy drag cars. I'm hoping to get in on that, and hoping lots of people join too!! This is happening in the spring supposedly.

I’m out in snohomish, I’d be up for that group tuning if it becomes a reality. I just finished the engine on my FD and will need a tune soon after the break in miles, I’ll keep an eye out for that thread.

I have a nice red 91 RX-7 in storage. It only has 90K on the chassis. The engine was pulled and donated to my GSL-SE.

20B D-series Street Ported Build

Building a street ported 3 rotor to go in 73 RX3 Coupe. The body shop has had the car for nearly 4 years which has slowed down my schedule to the max. Probably time to call in the lawyers.

I have think everyone is on facebook groups now.

I saw the red fc on craigslist, it is an auto and has no compression. It needs paint as well. Interiors great.

Hard to find low mile rx7s now days. Saw your ad tooshort88, how is that going?
