Everyone can buy me parts for my 1st gen! Yes, I think that will do hahaha
To think I was 16 when I first joined. Amazing! It was so long ago. But I have made some really good friends here. So to all of you that know me, thanks for all the good times for the past 9 years!

i'm already old... creeping up on 40 soon. for my mid life crisis i think i want a late 60's datsun fairlady roadster with a PP n/a 4 rotor for my birthday. but first i think i will work on finishing the twin charged(supercharged+turbocharged) TII setup for my car in about 2 months once i have all this stuff done.
i'm actually looking forward to working on my own car for once, sadly it's been 3 years since i have even turned a bolt on it.
i did actually feel a little enthusiastic about rebuilding the 13B out of a customer's '76 RX4 with a full bridge, i almost enjoyed working on the cars again when i had a dozen non rotary guys watching in anticipation for the first start and saw them giggling as it pumped raw fuel and exhaust into their faces with the loud BRAAP BRAAAP BRAAAAP! after a few short cranks and pops. i ported that thing paper thin too(as large as i felt comfortable with, i have only burned through one iron and that was on a TII full bridge with less room to work with), wanted to go even a step further for some of my last engines in testing the power waters.
will have plenty of core motors left though so i will be selling a few non core exchange engines whenever i feel like throwing them together.

Yeah I've been trying to figure out a clutch issue in the new fc, and stripping off parts off the old one. Can only get a couple hours of work in each day with the heat. Lol
