i'll take the motor but i don't need any of the long block parts, y'all can have that stuff.

it'd be about 2 weeks to get the motor done Bert so just lemme know, i could probably pull it off sooner but that is pushing it unless i order the parts air mail.

Nick, get rid of the Fcon, i'm pretty sure that is what is causing the horrible gas mileage but i can check a few things like the TPS and O2 to be sure they are working which can cause a drop in gas mileage. i would rather have a small loss in power to gain 10+ MPG, that is pretty rediculous, i drive mine everyday and i get 20+ and i boost a fair amount still.

 

Alright well that sounds like a good deal to me ben. just let me know when you have time to haul it down here.

Just curious what you would charge for a short block FD rebuild. I just met a guy in town that may be loookin into getting his motor rebuilt so I told him i'd ask for him.

 

i will have to look into the rebuild price for an FD, i know the parts will be more expensive than and FB or FC since the metal gaskets cost a little more.

 

I normally dont post here but I will be there. I am at every sac region SCCA auto-x. I drive a white ST2 miata #32. My dad normally brings his car as our tool chest but since you guys will be there I will try to bring my TII this time. See ya there!

 

for an FD overhaul he would be looking at a base price of $1600(50% deposit to cover parts required up front) if all the internals are good. any internal damage or upgrades would be extra.

 

Ok, Hey ben i need to talk to you can you call me?

 

Great will enjoy meeting you! Thanks for takin the time to post.

Anyone want to buy an f-con? ugh....that guy paid 1k for it and now its worth 300? I dunno. I need to sell it and buy a safc 2. Tell everyone around that i have my f-con for sale i guess...

-side note:I took a corner at 50-60..dunno my spedo is broken and my rear right tire IS rubbing on something.. SO lame.I wish i had 245 all around. Damn 255 And I need new rotors SOON. Damnit how am I going to afford a motorcycle?!

 

i'll trade you my GSXR 750 for your car

 

DAAAMN!


i just got a $1050 check from the treasury for my unused portion of my HUD insurance since i refinanced my house and didn't require the insurance any longer...


Nick and everybody, since i know most of us own FCs and we usually have a tough time i will do this: anyone who refers an engine rebuild to me i will give you $75 in cash per engine overhaul or you can trade it in for work on your car, i will pay out once the job is finished and paid for. if you want to go further i will give $150 for each referral if you participate in the engine overhaul and cleaning(requires cleaning of some of the internals).

i will give you a $75 discount Bert for being my first actual paying customer even though i won't allow people to refer themselves in the future.

90% sure I can go...still a bit more convincing I need to do...I may have to bring my dad too Hes like that...Fender moldings still arent in and my fd alt is going on this weekend.

 

As mentioned earlier, I will see you at the Mather meet in June. By then I will have the parts in to make the charging system for my AD shocks, so I don't have to rely on Ground Control anymore to top up the nitrogen.

Pics of the beast's new heart attached.

I'll be there. I was at the last one the 16th, red T2 with mustang wheels (yes, shame on me). I'm Sam by the way.

 

i was wondering who you were, you didn't talk to any of us. :p

i was the red T2 2 cars over with the crazy wheel hop, lol.



btw, sorry to inform you guys, i just spoke with my freind at work and he said he talked to the guy today and he junked the car to a wrecking yard.... i guess you don't need a title to junk a car but i doubt too many people will turn down a rotary turbo to junk out. i wish he would have given me more notice about the car than 1 day, oh well.

 

Damn, that sucks I wanted it! oh well, no worries. Glad to see the list of attendees is growing.

 

Yea I'm shy :P We'll have to chat at the next one.

 

so am i but you gotta overcome things one at a time.



i will have to try and find out where the car was junked to, the guy wouldn't say because he was kind of irritated that i backed out in the first place. would be nice to at least know where we can get some T2 parts since i have seen 0 in the wreckers anywhere nearby..

 

Yeah I'm going now My dad is going to be in LA and I'll be staying with my mom . I can do anythign as long as I don't drink or do drugs, etc. Not a problem for me since I don't anyways. And that damn sqeaking noise came back >:O As if a gallon of grease isn't enough?! I guess I'll just have to take the damn strut off when I can use my friends dads shop fender is still red damn moldings take their time I guess. And I realized I will almost never have enough money to buy a used Honda CB-R....or any other street bike. I still need to order my rear speakers $100. My rear strut brace $180. Rotors( I think) $350. I still think I should sell the F-con and buy Ben's setup (Rtech + safc2). I may end up spending $50, since noone really wants an F-con..
BUT YEAH IM IN BIATCHES!!!

 

lol, performance costs money...

 

NICE!
