Spotted a silver FD no spoiler going south on bothell everett hwy about 2 miles from I-405. (not street cross street, up street from fredmyers) at 3:25pm today.

 

Wow you're an FD magnet... not surprisingly MOST FD owners here in WA are not forum members =) They are too old to fit in lol

 

LOL he looked young to me. I tried to 'winked' but hit defrost on accident LOL.

 

haha Well maybe it could be a forum member... there are a few FD guys from WA in the 3rd Gen forums that avoid the NW forum, but no silver FD's.... At least that I know of... I guess we will see

 

Did it have Blitz Wheels? I saw one in Mukilteo that was silver with Blitz Technospeeds. It was nice! I am partial to the rims though.....

 

Didn't get a gook look at the rims. It was dark already.

 

Ive seen that silver FD a while back. Only one Ive seen in silver.

Tim, wtf is "they are too old to fit in". Dude.... Are you on crack? Ive got twin sons that are 2 months older than you, so Im old enough to be you dad. Regardless of the age of another owner, I can appreciate their interest in rotary engines and their fondness of the rotary powered cars.

The forum is not about fitting in, its about gathering and diseminating info, sharing experiences and pictures, providing help for those in need, a consortium of rx7 aficionados many of whom are passionate about their cars, an extraordinary resource.

Bottom line, from an old fart owner of an FD to a fresh turd owner of an FD, Ill forgive you for casting aspersions on the old guys on the forum as long as you own a 7. lol

ps - get your fd running, Im anxious to see it on the road.

 

lol In my defense it was only a joke! You should know to never take me seriously for future reference.

I got the same "I got kids older than you" response on my last birthday from all the old farts in the bar but with a "f*** you" before it lol I love old people, especially you Chuck! haha

Yes yes I know I would LOVE to fix it, however that takes money I spent on bills during my transition to my new job =) Come summer the project should begin, but for now there isn't much money to be made!

 

Im just trying to keep you tough and on your toes. As you know, going can rough on the forum as there are many that will mercilessly flame you - totally unprovoked.

I have to admit that mid-life crisis isnt too bad. Got a very nice fast sports car and the money to do what I want with it. Dont worry though youll get there soon enough. That is, having money to fix yours and midlife crisis!!!

HAHA yea the money is coming, just not fast enough! What I make now goes into my pockets and my vacation next month. But I am planning on buying another car after the first of the year before I start the FD project. I'm full commission so it's hard to anticipate income and how soon I will be able to finish the project

 

Well guess what there is a new silver FD in WA.. that would be the one I just purchsed from florida... I got a 94 silver R2.. It is on a truck and should be here in about a week and a half... Which is going to feel like the longest week in my life!!! I live close to oregon though... about 20 min from portland.. If anyone knows where that smeely *** mill in in camas WA well I live bout 8 min from there and am lookin for other rotary heads in the area.. So hit me up...

 

If you are lucky, you will get a driver like I had....he made it from Tennessee to Oregon in less than 4 days. He was a machine, drove pretty much straight through. Of course they have their DOT regulations, but he said when he hit Portland, he was just going to sleep for 2 days straight and log his time that way.

I was on a camping trip and I had to leave the camp site at midnight, and drive for 2 hours back to town to pick up my car...we talked for about an hour, I drove the car for about 30 minutes, and then had to put it in the garage and head back to camp as we had a big day of fishing planned....I was a ******* wreck that day, not because I was tired, but I wanted to drive my new car.

 

That was me im pretty sure. I just live like a mile north of fred meyers on bothell everett. Did it look like this by chance...

 

Nice car, not fond of the wheels... I thought you had a VR Cgotto? Guess I was wrong... Are those the RE headlights?

 

It was at night so I am not sure if the lights where still flippers or not. Most likely was if you live right here. Where abouts exactly?? I live at madison park.

 

Used to have a VR R1, that got totaled like 7 months ago and I have been parting it since. I picked this up from Oklahoma a few months ago.

I live up 196th off of the highway. Do you have an FD cjk2448?

 

Nope got an FB.

 

Ok that's where I got the idea you had a VR.. I knew you wrecked one. I thought you were still driving a VR. Oh well. I like silver FD's. Very nice

 

Nice FD, very clean!

 

Thanks for the nice comments. I like it too.

 

Really?

My son is 30 years old.

I have and FD.

He doesn't.

 

Jeez I gotta respond to this AGAIN?! It was a joke. However, I have never PERSONALLY met an FD owner over 30 who has even heard of the forum!!

 

Cgotto6 how do you like the fit on those lights? I got the same kit I will be putting on mine soon....hopefully.

 

Theyre not bad. Obviously not perfect like stock, but for them money I would say theyre worth it. Theyre like 50x brighter than stock, which makes it worth it right there, looks aside.

 

Ya, that's why I got them too, for the improved lighting, I'm going to see if I can clean up the background light assembly or make a closeout panel, try to make it more oem looking. We'll see, if it's something that can added easily I'll give you a shout to see if want to do the same.

Peace
