problems, problems, problems
Ok, I seem to have a serious problem. My front passenger side has a massive positive camber problem. Its been narrowed down to the struts. What caused this was a not so nice meeting between the curb & my car. Which according to the associates @ Firestone i'm going to need new struts & bushings.
So i'm at a bit of a cross road. To keep the car & fix it or to just pull out now & try & find another one. I don't know if it is really worth it to go through with fixing this. Mainly because it's still an automatic. Along with it's a base model SE. Which don't get me wrong would make a very nice sleeper. I guess wht i'm asking is, what do the people of RX-7 club think I should do? This may seem massively stupid, but I respect most of you alls opinion mainly because you've been through it once or twice before.

They are talking about all of the struts. The front ones are bent & the rear ones have locked up some how. The bushings they are speaking of i'm guessing are the strut ones
I just wished this wouldn't have happened now because I had planned on changing all these needed parts out in the future with perfomance parts(Tokico Illumina struts & Energy suspension complete Hyper-Flex system)
By the looks of it, this will be going up for sale. I really don't want to go through through all this & still be in the same place I am(That place being at the bottem of the food chain) A friend of mine has a white 87 w/ a street port S4(88) motor. Plus it's already manual, no conversion needed. Also the 18s I bought originally came off his car, so I guess they were really meant for that car. Lets just hope all goes right. Project SE(Sleeper Edition) will still be under way. Wish me luck to all who want a new 7 in the scene. If things work out & I do get this. Vortech will be getting a call because I really want to proceed with the centrifigal supercharger build-up.
