For any of you FC guys, i got a short throw shifter that i am pretty sure goes in an FC tranny, looks like a pretty quality piece, we can bolt it up and make sure it works then talk about buying lol.

I'll be moving to new River around Jan/Feb and looking into getting an FD again. Hopefully there's more people around that meet.

There's a couple of us around, not a lot of Fd's but there's a couple fb's and fc's floating around here I see every now and again. My friend and I are trying to get a group together.

The scene in Wilmington isn't bad, rotaries are thin around these parts if your talking rx7s, Raleigh rotaries are mostly rx8s very few rx7s

I believe there is a blue Fc with a rebuilt street port on craigslist, I wanna say it was near the Fayetteville area but I could be wrong. Last time I checked the guy wanted like 1300 bucks for it. Clean body from the pics.

Hey guys, checking in from being gone for a while and starting to look for another FD. Im still in contact and hang out with a few rotary guys in the area. If you see a red s2k with cf hardtop at an autocross or driving around in wilmington, say hey.

Awesome, I don't think they sell r12 anymore and if the do you will need an special license to buy. Best bet is to do the r134 conversation, which is easy to do.

Any shop around here works on FDs? Need to have it tuned after my break in miles, install the M2 IC and make the hot side piping, install the 1300 injectors and the battery relocation kit.
