Yeah I'm selling 'em. I put them on Sabine and tried very hard to like them, mainly because like an idiot I put all four on and took the other four downstairs to my room before I took a good look at them on one side of the car... But I tried and decided it just didn't work on a silver car. The paint on the wheels simply matches the paint too well and it all kinda blurs together. The 'vert wheels I am running have many years of grime and wear that make 'em look a lil darker so it sections off the car well.

Oh well. At least it won't be too hard to get 'em out of my room, I need oil money like nobody's business!

Two cars that chug oil at an alarming rate... that's expensive!

"So I'm officially DONE with high school!"

Congratulations Brett!!! Now you are Officially an Old Guy.

Time to find a nice 12A and show us what you've really got.

If only I didn't already have the Silver One and a wife I'd be all over this:

Only $1250. Any of you lucky bastards taking her home?

If I weren't going to North Georgia I'd be all over that S5 FC I posted on here a while back One day, one day... with the last ticket being my 5th, I've been debating on trading the FC for my uncles miata, but the whole turbo deal would probably get me into more trouble. He did say thay he'd put some $$ on his side to trade with me. If he's still got it and I need money for college this fall I might just jump on it.

I hit up Kevin's house, but I'm still short a few 12A parts. If anyone has the aluminum fan clutch spacer, that goes on the end of the waterpump pulley, or the rubber ends where the OMP lines meet the pump, let me know. The RX-2 motor thanks you!

The Mustang is the one my cousin owns. He said next year hopefully we'll have 2 first gen 7s parked in the grid together.

It's a tuff call Mike, at $500 it's a good deal, but I think I'd go with the SA for $1250 on this one:





If I only had just a little bit of time and money.

Wait, I have an idea....

That'd be your little brother sticking his hand in the mailbox you just built to see if his new Victoria Brittish RX-7 catalog has come in yet. He's got that 12A look in his eyes.

Hey Dave, it turns out Komodo dragons disable their prey using venom, not bacteria, as we thought earlier. That's a relief.

That would be correct Ray, none of us are in high school.
BTW where do you teach at?
