um....for a FD I presume? Chances are nil to that happening in the east TN crew, hell I tried to get a koyo form ebay several months ago and after 3 months of waiting I still dont have one...got my money back but would still need to get a koyo once I really get to ripping old **** out of the NA.

well the fluidynes are expensive, but weigh the options. A) buy from rx7store.net and know they have it in stock and ready to ship, or B) buy it from an ebay source that may not have it in stock and will have to order the radiator from the manufacturer, causing long long long delays....personally im gonna buy from a reputable stateside vendor and just pay a bit more.

Or build your own radiator out of duct tape and dog ****. Wait I'm not making any sense...... but anyway, if you buy from eBay, just make sure you read the seller's feedback. If they commonly have issues with long shipping delays and backorders, then that's going to be reflected in the feedback left by unhappy chaps like Derrick here. But the choice is yours, sometimes certainty is worth the extra expense.

I have a couple brown cloth seats out of an 84 GS, probably don't match your interior though.

I'd take 75 for the pair. They're pretty nice. The only flaw on either of them is the little trim piece on the driver's seat kinda "loops out" a little bit. I can take a pic if you want or you can just come see 'em.

man we had a meet up here in MA last night... went to this HUGE strip mall in Millbury... nice place but the amount of rice there is crazy....

we had some guy in an A4 come up and rev the **** out of his car (no exhaust, no turbo) and then drive off like he was the coolest thing there... SO retarded xD


we had 2 FD's, 2 FC's, 2 8's, 1 SpeedSix, 3 WRX, and 1 STi in our group... nice meet but the amount of 16 year olds with shitty cars was stunning. xD

Sounds like a typical "import" car meet. Down here it's the same thing only there's no nice cars. Last time we went to Clinton Highway, a group of lifted deisel trucks rolled up and started revving. Couldn't figure out what they were doing... there wasn't a yacht that needed towing anywhere.
