I'd pay that much for the vert, very rare to find one in that kind of shape and low mileage...almost looks like a factory supercharger install. The owner of that FB, I have nothing nice to say about, smh.

Service like soldering and stuff to that nature. I'm trying to fix my flashers, hazards, wipers and vert top but Iam the least manliest man on earth and have no tools whatsoever. =(

Just some friendly advice, you'll save a LOT of money and frustration learning how to work on these cars yourself. There are guys on this thread alone who know just about every nut and bolt on your car and would be more than welcome to offer advice and occasionally assistance time permitting. There aren't many shops that are comfortable working on rx7's, and if they are, they probably don't know what they're messing with aside from a couple like Rotorsports. We're all here to learn, watcha need done to yours?

I had the issue where my flashers and hazards were making noise but not actually flashing. So after going through the FAQ, I decided to buy a new CPU off of Ebay. Went to a MAZDA DEALERSHIP and they worsened the problem. Now i'm not even hearing the clicking noise. That and adjusting my TPS are my only concerns, really.

well, being that Jasmine should be coming out pretty soon now, i've been doing a few mods to the camry, mainly cleaning up and what not, added some window tint instead of having those awful window shades that leave marks on your windows and fall all the time. and also, i kinda stole the "13b inside" idea off of sam's car and had this done:


it works! i've had people come up behind me and as soon as they get within reading distance they back up and slow down if they can't pass me. maybe sam needs one when josh is driving behind him :P

I know for the 2nd gens there is a relay that almost ALWAYS goes bad causing the windshield wipers to malfunction. I'm not too familiar with 1st gen setups, but I assume your wipers operate off of some sort of relay as well?

Dude this thing is flat nasty now. I am still only running 12psi.

On a different note. I got my Subaru running today. The car hasn't ran since 2001. I had to rebuild the carb, but the little heffer fired right up!!!! I try to get some pics of it.

i don't think i'll be making this month's meet, unless jasmine comes out within the next couple of days. the due date is May 10th but the doctor said if she doesn't go into labor by this weekend he's gonna induce labor on Monday. I'd hate for her to go into labor and be so far away from our doctor of course, the way sam's car is running now, maybe he could get her back to wilkes in no time :P

Speaking of which, The meet will not be this weekend. If you guys want to do it the next weekend. or even the following weekend will be fine. I will not be in town the 15th of this month, but you guys need to decide.
