[QUOTE=ray green;12107466]I've tried many times over the years Paul but I'm convinced nothing I or anyone else says can shut it down.

It's like a malignancy and as long as there is an RX7club forum we will be here sucking its life blood.

Nope that's my grandson..it's me I confess. Trump 7? Oh palease...! Honestly I don't think we've had a decent pres since Reagan. I'd rather it referred to as the Reagan 7 if we must put a name on it. Never gave "her" a name but "she's" my pride and joy next to my two daughters and my fiancée . She's my third and probaby last. Still have a hankering for a clean black stock TII but not in the cards I guess. Given up on any FD, they don't seem to be very reliable from all I've read. All the politics is strictly in gest. One president can't fix two totally screwed up parties. I'm just glad to be getting back to working status soon. Retirement is a dirty word for me.

Hey folks. Believe it or not, I am still alive.

So I am moving soon and would like to clear out some of my excess 7 stuff. I may update this later as I remember more things.

1st gen:
'82 GSL axle: This is off my car. Swapped it for another one with the tri-link mount. Was fine when I removed it. Free picked up. One small catch. It is currently buried behind my wife's crap, so won't really be available for a few weeks.

Damaged oil cooler (below radiator air/oil): Free. Jack slipped and got it. It does not leak though. It may be salvageable.

FD
Cusco strut bar
Mazdacomp (I think, can check) front sway bar.
Make offers on these.

Well after a 3 year hiatus I'm back in an FB which leads me to ask you guys, does anyone have an S3 6 port 13b long block? I need to rebuild my current engine due to the oil control rings going bad and can't seem to find one down here in south GA.

Well hello all my Georgia friends! We made it to Jefferson last night safely and have begun cleaning and demo for repairs to my mom's house here to prepare it for listing. We'll be here a week! :-)

Hopefully I get to see some of you. Ray, you still here in town?

He got it on the Mazda underground back in the '90's. His mom worked at a Mazda dealership.

Somebody buy this, it is too good to be true. Offer $5000, bring it to the next OGTA meeting.
