Hey, nice rx-2. I'm in no way a dual dizzy specialist but was able to get the ones on my twin dizzy 12a going good when I had that motor.

Where in socal are you located? Maybe I can drop by nextweekend.

Hey wassup Alvaro! Maybe you can coax it into working again (this is the 12a that I have picked up from you). I have commitments on Saturday but I'm available on Sunday if you have the time. Let me know. I'm in Walnut up by Mt SAC.

Just like those MkIIIs don't look so hot, maybe we should trade! Haahaa! I think the Revolutions are too wide for your mango.

Haahaa! . . . . no

Since we're talking old school, I'm sure there is a thread somewhere for the Japanese Classic Car Show in Long Beach at the end of the month. Check out some highlights from last year's show. If you don't want to watch the entire video (kinda long), here is where you can find the Mazdas, 1:25 - RX-4, 6:34 R360 Coupe, 9:44 RX-3 (islandsnow) and 10:40 rotary 510.

I thought since Celica's came up I'd post a pic of my old car. I sold this one to fund the Carina and RX-4 I currently own. It was a 2.2 liter 18RG as well. Except it had a gear drive and TRD header. Pretty cool car in it's own right. Got it's butt whooped by a certain 13b powered 510 though.
