I have 3 cars now.

My daily is going to be my 1980 GS with LDS rear axle and a couple other mods.

My drifter is my 1988 Turbo II. LOTS of mods.

Btw, I think that was some awesome advice also. The first thing i did when i got my 7 was teach my GF how to drive it. She wont own another automatic again she loves it. I bought her a 2000 Impreza 2.5 RS and we are going to mod it up together its her baby.


A huge shout out to all you grease monkey car girls.

I should have made an entry into this area a month ago -_____-

I picked up a 1993 RX-7 R1 BB earlier on in October, here's a couple of pictures of her next to my other girl = )







Sadly, I sold the MR2 a few weeks ago = (

Here's a friend's RB240 and the 7 in the SODO area:

Thanks RX7grl, I was looking around for RX-7's for years while I was finishing up college, but usually without luck. I ended up getting this RX-7 from an old doctor, he seemed pretty ****, so hopefully there will not be much trouble w/ this car.

That would be interesting if my old MR2 was already back up on craigslist, the guy I sold it to got a pretty good deal on a 12 second track prepared MR2.... I still miss the power = (

haha... in time, the RX-7 will be faster than my old 2... though it definitely seems like it will be more expensive to mod than the MR2 was.

Yeah. The 3sgte is a great motor but that REW is WAY cooler.


My best bud just got a '91 Mr2 turbo. It has some miles and recently has been running like ****.

Hmm... I had a 3SGTE from a 1993 MR2 GT-S which ran like a dream.... you could beat on that engine and rev it past 8,000 with no trouble. My favorite part about the car was how robust the engine was, I had no fear at the track.

Unfortunately, there's about 20 beaten to hell MR2's for every decent one...

So far the RX-7 has been very nice... much cleaner and quieter than the MR2 haha

The older 3SGTE's are suppose to be better. IDK much about them. I am just getting into the Mr2's.

My friends has 210,000 miles and it would blow up if you ran it past 8,000. HAHA. We shift at like 6k so it will maybe have a chance of lasting longer.

I want a 3rd gen RX7 so bad it is not even funny. It is one of my dream cars to have before i turn 30.
