So would your old n/a motor be up for sale after the swap? If so, I'd be interested. The vert's really growing on me

Actually it won't be, sorry man. That motor is going into another FC that i will have up for sale very soon. Plus it's S4 anyway. But we need to find you a motor. That car looks way to good for part out/end its life.

Hahaha i know!! It kills me to see it just sitting there even with the parts i've been getting for it. The T2 is S4.
I will probably show up to ZF, but i don't even know if im going to have the lousy $30 bucks to enter If i came up with that, i would just go get the 95 M3 that i drift and come do some grip in her. We'll see though, i'm trying to get some thing squared away!

Yeah, but he won't ship. Anyone willing to drive to Miami for a pair of seats should consider eBay.

Cool. How 'bout if we have the August OG@TA meeting at the Soapbox Derby meet?

We can have a whole section in the parking lot devoted to rotaries, with Billy's Blue Beast at the center.

That guy with the SE seats is a big cool RX-7 guy, a mod or something. Maybe he'll be at Zoomfest and be willing to deliver?

Hey Ray, if I buy the 2GDI coil, can you run by the process to hook it up for me again? I think I can do it myself but I know NOTHING about electrical/ignition.

I'll bring some OG@TA cards along Stu. What color stock should I print them on (we did blue for July)?

Chris we'd be happy to help wire up your 2GDFI. I still have the installation kit in the car from the last OG@TA meeting. Also I can bring that grill piece and maybe the bumper skin if I can find it and it fits in the car. You going to ZoomFest?

So what do you think guys should we do the Soapbox Derby for the August OG@TA meet?

Crit and I have formed a team. I think we should turn it into a OG@TA meet and competition. The group should build a few of them and compete against each other.

If anyone's gonna be camping Friday night, I'll be up there much of the day and can scout out the most perfect spot before anyone else does. Anybody want a tent-mate?

OMG that Soap Box Derby looks like too much fun. I vote we have the meet there for August. I will help whatever way I can for a team.

Crit, I just talked to Zack (311unity) and he is coming up to Zoom Fest Friday night. He is bringing the friend that was up at your lake house. Zach is bringing his tent and I'm bringing one too. We probably won't arrive until between 7 & 8PM

hello everyone. I know I just kinda disappeared. Trouble with the RX-7 and life has been hectic. I'm sure it has been some what for all. I wanted to let you all know that I have to get rid of the car. The tag is about to expire, and I do not have the funds to her running properly. I just can't do it right now.

I would like to thank everyone for there help. I have had problems with both 12a's I have owned. I know that this last one was due to me. I should have pulled over when I heard the pop. It just happened to be when I shifted.

So I wanted to offer her to anyone here first. I will post in the forsale section on Monday. I would like $500, but I know that might not be feasable. So, $100 or best off.

I really hate to see her go. I have loved these cars ever sense I drove one.

You are welcome to contact me @ 770-833-8199. I live in Marettia. really close to 285 and 75. I can start her up, but the clutch is gone. Master/Slave leakage. You will not be able to drive her around. The front apex seals, or housing is message up. Looses compression due to an over heat.

So if you are intrested please give me a call.

Again, I thank everyone for their help. Maybe I will be able to join the ranks of 12a owner once again down the road.

Hey Mark! Sorry to hear you're selling.

Zooom fest was the Zoomfestiest. Thanks to Billy, Crit, Donnie and the GF.

Smashing that boinger van was fun.

And you should have seen the cars! Rotaries everywhere.

Aahhh- my odometer is 123 miles from 250,000! Yay right?

And another great thing- Once I finish my 11 hours of community service left and pay a $30 fine, my license will be back to normal! So guess who'll be at the next OG@TA meet?
