I'm not irritated, I'm glad you got them on. I guess you took it somewhere huh? Whatever you do, DO NOT put hand sanitizer on them to clean them! HAHA. Good on you for voting too. I don't think I'm gonna go to Frankie's, there's going to be a million people out there, screw that. I think we should make it out there as a group for one of our meets though, that would be a blast.

That would be awesome if you could make it with us. And I have all the tools we need to fix it if it breaks down.

 

Anyone local have a FD transmission for sale? Don't really mind a noisy one or one with a bad 3rd gear synco since this will only be in for a short period of time.

I have 2 FB transmissions and 1 FC trans, but no FD trans!

 

They are Friday Dec 8th, from noon-4pm. Same rules apply as last year.

 

Rules? Rules! Rules?! RULES?!?!?!?!?!!? We don't need no stinking rules!

Rule number 1 is don't pass the pace car.
Rule number 2 is see rule number one.


Any others?

 

I wouldn't mind dropping by Frankies but it would be after work. How late is that meet going to last? And I agree with Eric, we should meet out there sometime as a group... SLICK TRACK!

I think he posted this in this thread a few pages back.

 

i have a tranny too Carl, all gears are good cept 5th which has a crunch. I won't be free til sunday. sorry about not answering the PM.

 

Holy ****! 193 people have signed up for this event. And... there is only 1 RX-7 on the list.

 

PMed you.

 

I have an FD tranny laying around, the original one out of my car. I wasn't really planning on selling it though. I've been BSing around, supposed to have replaced the 5th gear synchro already, and have it as a backup. My 5th gear synchro is going in the JDM one already I think, haha. I might be up for getting rid of it though. And if I did, I'm not looking to get alot, that's not why I'm saying all that about keeping it. I'm just not absolutely sure I wanna get rid of it, haha. Maybe you can borrow it til later? lol

**** I just re-read what you wrote. You can use mine if you want and just give it back when you're finished, no charge. How long do you think you'd have it?

 

Sending you a PM Eric...

 

How about this folks...what if we do our regular meet but leave a little early to go to Frankie's and see how packed it is? Not sure if this was already the plan, but there it is. Even if we don't do go karts this time, there is plenty of other stuff to do there that we can do, or we can just kinda hang out like normal. Sound like a plan?

 

I forgot it was always on a Friday! WOOO! That rocks.

 

Ugh. have fun with the PD. LOTS to move out of the way... and while you're taking the intake manifold off, go ahead and replace as many hoses as possible... for safe measure.

Just don't break a bolt in the waterpump housing where the T-stat sits.

 

That's exactly why I'm not doing the PD myself. I don't want to screw up on my DD. If I had backup then I'd do it myself.

 

Ok guys. We need to have another drive before the weather gets too cold (ha, too cold for a nuclear reactor on wheels?!). The target drive: Bert's Route. That's right, it's officially named Bert's Route. Why, you ask? I can't figure it out even while staring at the map Bert gave us. It's like a treasure map. Anyway, perhaps this weekend may be too soon for that, not to mention it'll clash with the INC meet (for those of us who are going). Of course RRDI meets reign supreme in my mind, so if you guys (and girls!) are down for screaming around turns on Bert's Route then let's hear it. If not this weekend then maybe next weekend or as a thing to do before meeting at Char-Grille?

 

Hey, does anyone on this entire forum have a pair of high impedence 550cc injectors they can sell to me?!? Its like trying to find the ark of the covenent. Plenty of S4 low impedence, no highs, unless im blind.


BC

 

no chance they are the same as the FD 550cc's is there? if so i have some.

 

hey guys...

I have a black '91 vert in Chapel Hill that I'm considering selling. I bought the car a couple years back intending to 'fix it up.' I drove the car for about a year and sadly blew the apex seals on the front rotor. I, therefore, removed the engine in anticipation of replacing it, but as the story so often goes, I never got that far. I have since gotten married, moved to Charlotte, and frankly don't have time to give it the attention it deserves.

The good: This is a fairly rare black on black S5 vert with low miles for its year. It has a little over 90k on it and the interior is in pretty good condition. The paint looks decent as well... It looks to have been garaged a good portion of it's life. I'll take some pictures when I go back to Chapel Hill sometime, but for now I don't have any to show.

The bad: As noted, the engine is toast... or at least the front rotor. The driver's side fender has a crease in it where some druken idiot backed his truck, tailgate DOWN, into it. The passenger side rear quarter panel has some light scrapes on it where the previous owner backed the car into the corner of a brick building, but these can likely be fixed w/o too much hassle. The vert top has a couple of small holes in the usual places. It does not leak into the interior in a major way, but you can see where there has been dampness on the roof liner at some point or another. Despite all of this, if I were still in Chapel Hill, I would be inclined to simply fix the car (possibly turbo-convert it since I've already got the engine out), but it may be more useful to someone as parts.

Anyway, I don't know if anyone would be in need of something like this, but it's sitting in a garage at one of my father's rental properties and, as I noted, I don't have time for it. As for now, I'm kinda just testing the waters to see if there's any interest as I may end up having to get someone to fix the darn thing just so I can sell it, but I thought someone on here might like it as a project instead. I'll consider any reasonable offer. Thanks.

-jealously wishing I still had a working wankel

 

Spotted in Driveway: Silver FD '93 touring with a cage, red racing seats, carbon fiber hood, shaved rear wiper.

Just wondering who on here, im friends with your little brother and he said you were on here

Anyone looking for a wideband or EBC? If so shoot me a PM!

 

I'd like to do another drive tomorrow but I need to change my oil and then in the afternoon I am going to be busy right up to DI time in Cary. We could plan a drive for next Saturday if the weather is nice. I need to get out and drive it again to be sure I can remember all the turns. But yeah, lets plan on it. We'll bring it up at the Drive-In tomorrow.

 

Sounds good Bert. Oh by the way everyone (if anyone cares), I did a compression test. I bought a piston engine compression tester from Sears and pulled the check valve. I'm getting ~89 PSI for the front rotor and a dismal ~85 for the rear. At the very least I now know where my car stands. I'll be bringing my compression tester tomorrow and if anyone is interested, I'll show you how to do it if you don't already know.

 

anyone got a spare s4 turn signal and/or s4 cruise control switch, im in desperate need here. ill bring cash to the meet just pm me or bring the parts.
and if anyone happens to have an s5 guage cluster that'd be awsome

 

I might be able to find one at the local pull a part. but I would have to ship it off to ya

but there are 3 Rx7s I found at the local yard, I am going to this yard next week jsut post or PM me if you guys need any specific part from S4s, I already have the tail lamps, gauge cluster, door handles, and dome light.
