Hey some guy in Cumming saw me seafoaming my car (video soon) and I gave him an OGTA card, just wondering if he found this thread. Any reply from you Mr. witness-my-seafoam-and-drive-up-to-tell-me-my-water-seal-is-blown lol. I wanted to see that guy's Rx-7s, he said he has quite a few first gens.

Hey Salvador, in the red FC out on I85, next OGTA meeting is Tuesday, October 6, 6:30 pm at Jefferies in Suwanee, just off the Rt. 317 exit. Stop on by! Billy invite the GFs too!
Colin thanks for the Jimmy McPerson essay! That guy was really cool, I can't believe they didn't teach us about him in high school.

Thanks guys, let me know if you do run across one. Not to concerned with the looks.
I figured I would just pick one up from summit.......Turns out you can only purchase crap shift ***** from Summit, Jegs or ebay. I am not much into skulls and dice Not one simple, clean looking shift ****.

yeah, roland. sorry i didnt get chance to call you back today. i still have it, but it turned out to be for an 83 type center console and not for the 79. i still have it and dont have any use for it, but if you got an 83 center console, i'm pretty sure they're the same as the 79 though, except for the hole where the ash tray goes. i just dont have any 83's...let me know if you need it.

Hey Dudes, someone clue me in on a rack and pinion steering conversion. I have a bit of play in the manual steering box in the Silver One that I don't want to live with so I need to consider options:
1. Pull and rebuild the manual unit in the silver car. Also replace all tie rod ends and the pitman arm, which are getting old ($160 for all the parts from Rock Auto).
2. Pull and replace the manual unit with a used power unit (minus the power) from one of my other cars, along with the steering parts replacement listed above.
3. Do a rack and pinion upgrade.
What would you do?
