Yes, I'm looking forward to the rebuild. These guys seem to know what they're doing.

Love these videos. Reminds me that there are so many things to screw up if you're not careful, though.

Very cool series I stumbled on the other day and actually got me to re-register on here after ~15 years away. Kicking around the idea of building an RX-3 race car...seeing all the rotary love is detrimental to my bank account!
