ive heard abt him going to the sam's club thing i think? oh and i talked to my friend with the s13 and a guy named preston on here with an fb and they cant go to the car gathering anymore. we need to get a local one going just to see what everyone's got and talk cars. just cuz the fact that not everyone can make the state meets. especially since its during the day.

/\ yeah that FD looks like eric's, but with different wheels. Cool i was wondering who bought it


as for the red FD, there is a guy i know at work with a red 93, with power fc, catback, injectors, with stock twins. i talked to him last week, and he told me he was trying to sell it too

it may have been him, but he was going the other way i didnt get a good look at the car and i was soaking up the rotary sound of my roomates RX-8 so i really was kinda zoned out. ill talk to preston and see whats up with him since he is back in school.

max, thats a great looking FD, how many miles are on it? the engine bay is very pretty, and VERY stock except for that blue silicon vac line.
