It's an 84, and it was a joke. I was poking fun at Mazda changing the location of the MAF due to this "huge issue"

Well, that explains why Ray can't get up here. Its the fear of rejection by a
tranny (hey I meant transmission not transvestite, really).

OG Kevin I live north of Charlotte in Huntersville. PM me if you need any help.

Did you lose the tranny in a 7 or some other vehicle?

Tim, I've always had great luck with trannies, never had one do me wrong.

Billy if you want me to lay hands on that 44IDF, I can probably tame it, I have a way with carbs. You need to let me drive the RX-3 if it works though.

It's a great delivery car I ordered the part to make the turn signals cancel themselves out Tuesday too, so that should be in tomorrow or so. Yep!

Wow, Collin used to have one of those. A Papa John's Pizza Beany Topper, with flip-up headlights for oncoming 7's.

Brett, you've got no place to go but up from here. Are you in our delivery area? We'll order a pizza tomorrow night.

So I'm agonizing about wanting a rack and pinion steering system for the Silver One. Can't you get one of those Mustang II units and just super glue it in?

Well, the RX-2 has been quietly for sale for a while now, and I may have finally found her a new home. Here's a trip down memory lane:

Why Why Why, Crit? Why now? You have so much work in it. Are you just moving on, because you have the REPU? I hate to see someone sell their project before they get it finished and get to enjoy all their labor.

Well, the RX-2 isn't getting finished. I'd rather finish the REPU, and once it's done it'll provide more than enough smiles per mile. Having a second car won't double the smiles, as you can only drive one at a time. Besides, the REPU is so much damn fun, and it'll be good to free the garage of the car, and free the shop of all the parts/spares.

We'll see.

Hate to see her go - Where is she going? Hopefully she will have a good new home where someone will take pride and finish her. I will never forget this car - 666!

That won't be any fun. Whenever I get into rotaries with someone I'll bring up how I know a guy with an awesome RX2 Hopefully it'll stay in the area?

Man, I love those slotted rims! Wish we could have traded the rims.
Sad day at critz home!
Wish I could afford to get it and finish her off. Maybe I need to sell the 3 rx2's I have and buy yours.

That's a nice list of stuff you got there Chad. I couldn't find any matches but I'm sure others will.

Something to think about:

We're gonna have another Flood Day in Atlanta tomorrow, so you might want to shoot for Sunday.

I was thinking about this the other day, but we should get some form of OGTA stickers for our cars. The GSL I bought from Kevin has the Re-Speed sticker, and just a rotor, but no OGTA.

Have they ever been produced? I would love to rep the OGTA every day I drive around town...

Wish I could, but were picking up our son that had to go back to fl for a week because the adoption lawyer said so. My mom is bringing he up to the south part of Ga for me. Cuts my round trip 24hrs drive to a 12 hr drive

Well, I was suppose to have gotten a 48 IDA and once it arrived it was a lesser 44 IDF.
Sorry Billy, I got screwed on that one. Hope you can jet it to get some use out of it for now.
