Wow last night was really fun. We'll definitely do it again. Thanks to everyone who came. And thank you for behaving... lol. I'm glad nothing got too out of hand while we were at the farm.

Anyway, hope everyone made it home safely and they had a good time last night as well.

See you next meet.

I had a great time! Definitely worth the hour and a half drive! Even though there were like 10 people and one FD had to leave early, it was great to meet all of you. The bonfire was very cool as well as the drunk 10 year olds driving the pickup of death and trying to run over the short asian girl. HEHE! And Denny's was fun... uh, or interesting, poor clean up crew. Anyway, I will definitely be coming to more of these. See y'all later.

Yes, that was one of the best meets ever. Those who missed it should deeply regret it, even though we may not tell you why

I had a good time too, and I know my son Dylan sure had blast. He had fun with the other kids running around the bonfire with sticks and trying to poke each other's eye out. Also, nice turn out with the FDs, I like your yellow toy Richard! Watch out for speed bumps!

YES! My RX-7 lives!

Went Advance to pick up the clutch master cylinder I had ordered, took it home and popped it in. When taking the old one off I definately saw the problem-the old one just completely fell apart on me. Put the new one on...and nothing. Oops, forgot to prime it. Take it back out, prime it, stick it back in, success! I try to crank her up and the battery is a bit weak from sitting for several months, but after a few seconds she roars to life. I test the clutch by moving back a few feet, and it works fine. Now I'm just waiting for someone to be around with me so I can actually bleed it.

Joy!

They don't have them in stock, but they can order them. It was only a few bucks more than ordering one off the net and they got it in the next day.

If you don't mind waiting, go to www.rockauto.com . The master cylinder on mine was about the same, but the slave cylinder was much cheaper there if I remember correctly.

Hey, I am looking to buy an Rx-7 TII.

I live in High Point, NC

I previously owned an 88 GXL, and now own a camaro. I'm looking to go up to something turbo, either my prized Rx-7 TII, or an older style Supra.

I have met up with some of the Denton guys before, only name i can remember is Steve(they came down and helped me with my wiring harness) so if you Denton guys could hook me up with any deals, or anyone from around here, I would appreciate it

AIM : StreamsofHisLife

-if you have anything, pm me please

Oh no, no FD, I have an 84 GSL-SE. I used to have a 91 FC also, but I traded it for a Miata. Like you dad, I know how to work on the first gen too

Why don't you just split it 3 ways and all of you share it? Duh.

You would probably want to relocate the battery with that kit or just use one of the really small batteries such as the Odyssey PC680. The kit comes with brackets to relocate the radiator so thats not a problem. I would advise against the greddy 2 row, I bought it and decided not to use it and went a different route....
I think both the HKS and Apex'i kits have a lot better fit, etc.
