I'm parting out a white 88 s4 TII that I just sto.... er.... obtained. PM me for parts!

LoL J/K man.

I feel for you man, I really do. I'd kill someone if it were my car. I'd be weary of any white s4 being parted out in the future too. Good luck! I hope you find her and the ****** that stole it! Beat some *** if you ever find them!

fellas just help the man out his car was stolen he's pissed and any little bit of arrogance and smart *** comments will **** anyone offin his state. Put yourself in his shoes. He may be coming across as an *** but If your car was stolen most would be as well at the sign of any bullshit from members.

I hope you find the car brother!!

Here on the east coast, feeling your pain. I know what it's like. Not to be a jack *** or anything, but try not to keep your hopes up too much.

HOLY **** MAN!!! I just read about this in my e-mail, from SoCal7's I reposted on socal7's some distinguishable things I remember from the car First off unless he fixed it after he bought it from me, it has a small dent on the back, near where the Rx-7 emblem is, it's in between the key hole for the trunk and the RX-7 emblem. There are a few small scratches on the driver's side fender, showing a red undercoat beneath the white paint. And unless he also cleaned/changed the FTP lens, one side is dull and one side is perfectly clear, I believe it was the driver's side that was more clear. Not sure if you still have the haltech, but keep an eye out for a haltech e6k for sale, assuming he didn't take it off after I sold it to him. Underneath the center console, if you take it off, flip it upside down, it has my initials carved into it, M.T. randomly did that one day while I hhad it apart.

here's some pics of it when I had the car...

go to album 1988 Rx7 TII

-Minh

*edit* on the rear hatch glass, there was a little thing on it, can't really describe it, but it had a threaded part on it, as if you could attach an antenna to it. Never knew what it was for, never really cared. Also, inside, at the front of the car, hanging from the roof liner is another little thing, again not sure what it was for, it it was a little black cylinder, connected to an electrical wire, about an inch long maybe shorter, and a little under a half inch in diameter, it had three small holes on it, looked kind of like a small recording microphone. On the passenger side, the kick panel (where the passenger's feet goes, the panel there has two small holes in it, I had my F-con mounted there before I upgraded to the haltech.

*edit* another thing, the passenger side mirror has a crack in it, someone hit it in a parking lot, and it's also slightly bent back.

I'm just listing things as they come back to me, I'd hate to see this car in pieces, I bought it from the original owner, and loved the car when I had it.

California needs to stiffen GTA laws. Cops don't care too much about GTA.

wow Minh you remember more than i can right now. yes it is the same car. the rear hatch thing was for an old school car phone antenna. and the thing comin out of the pillar is a microphone.

I didnt fix any body damage that Minh listed. the haltech was still there. only thing different is the wheels and a couple things under the hood....new air filter and bought just week racing beat ultra spark plug wires haha. i was planning on getting coilovers soon and just leaving it that way. GUESS NOT now....

on to the next project

they care just not about imports. they all end up on blocks. if i were that guy i would just search for familiar parts on ebay and such. if someones sellin a **** load of parts, it could be your car... chances are the guy will try to sell you back your own **** like a crackhead.

good luck though man.

I'm so sorry to hear man, I really hope you get that thing back. I really loved that car, hard to find them in good condition like that one. I'm trying to remember anything else about the car right now, but thats all I can really think of. I did have the Haltech sent out for repair, I wonder if Haltech would have the serial number on file?? Worth a shot.

STANZ I had one of my FCs stolen, and the other was broken into in Burbank CA more than two years ago in an attempted GTA, lucky for me I walked in on them and those two pussies took off. I found my stolen FC in the **** holes of East LA where it was being parted out, came across his add in the recycler, that dumb ****. The next night my buddies and I payed that ****** a vist and I must say that it ****** felt good. I hope that you find your FC, and if you find the son of a bitch that stole your car let me know because I am still mad and can go for seconds. Best of luck friend.
