CA I'll be back on the road after a year!

So, Long story short, Someone tried to steal or was being a @## and cut two holes on my vert top. I could stick my whole head in each hole. And I just replaced the top not to long before that happened. After that I started getting problems with the car such as Limp mode, Trans mounts breaking, and not passing the test only in CA.

After of about a year I finally found a decent top, saved up enough money to replace the MOP, and pass smog, I am only a few days away from going to the DMV, getting my tags, and placing in the new Trans mounts on the car. Hope to fellow 13B and 13A owners on the roads and at events soon!

Are there any local meets for rotary guys around the LA area?

hurm, I've thought about putting the Vert tails back on, but I don't like that whole License plate holder. There is just something about the coupe tails on the vert that look nice to me. I don't think I've seen a set of modernized tails.
