Well that's how we rotary people learn... something breaks and we have to figure out how to fix it. I'm still running the stock Nikki on my FB but it needs a rebuild so I guess I'll get a lesson in carbs soon.

It's way too cold out today to be working on cars!

To everyone in Mazdafiend....You can now have your meets at Twin City Mazda if you all are interested. Just PM me and let me know if you all would be down and let me know the date. I can probably get some 8's parked in the back parkiing lot where they said you all could meet. Oh ya, I got my interior done. What do you all think?

Nice seats. It would be cool to have the meet at the dealership. We should make it a big thing though... maybe schedule it for February or March so we could have time to get the word out and such? It also *might* be warmer by then.

You finally get that vert running after a failed attempt to sell the unfinished product? And as for the motor, yes its still in my na, clean as a whistle for once in its life, the motor that is.

Either look great. The older I get the more I appreciate the stock r1 spoiler. Did you get the Side Skirts installed yet?

I like both spoilers, although the 99 Spec has been copied so many times and put on so many worthless cars that it's kinda cheapened the appeal, so I'd probably go with the R1. Complements the R1 front lip perfectly.

Jeremy, I just realized I can see daylight through the firewall of that RX-2. A true rotary!

Ive got someone who will buff the car for you for $100.00. I gaurantee you it will be better than what 95 percent of the local bodyshops will do for you. I had him do a car for me on Saturday and it looks like a completely different car when he got done with it.

Listen up, I bought a jetski (02 GP1200r-63mph) over the summer. Then a truck to pull it. Which in turn pulls in the *****. Which hurt my funds for my car, but now I have nothing to spend my money on soo I decided to finish it. Never planned on selling it, just seeing what I could get for it. Sorry I had to put it off for the summer, can you please forgive me??? Sorry to upset you. But anyway (**** twin city?) Yah **** twin city but they fund all my rides. It was quite generous for them to let us use their lot, if you dont want to come....dont. 8's??? Have you seen the r3 rx8? obviously not! You will change your mind about 8's in 09. Did you forget what they had under the hood helbent? Have you ever drivin one? Dont say anything about 8's if you have never drivin one for than the 2 mile test drive.... Yah they are not that fast, but they sure as hell will bust an N/A vert. I know. I am not trying to start ****, but dont talk **** about **** you dont know about. Just let me know when you all want to have the meet if you still want to meet there. So far, it will be ME, Clint w/carbon hood and body kit FD, his bro in his big streetport N/A FC....Anyone else down?
