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!

 

We're getting old!!!

 

Yes we are.........You're still younger than me though! haha

 

I'm going for sure Who else is going?

I want my old 10AE back

 

Any of you fc guys want new front and rear rotors. Free picked up in union city

 

nooooooeeeesssss!!!

 

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.

 

Ehh, why not get a stereotypical Porsche 964?

 

I already had my midlife crisis at 22 and bought a corvette hahaha I can't WAIT to see what I'm going to buy for my midlife crisis!

 

What's this doing down here? *bumps thread back up*

There we go. So what's up my Nor-Cal friends?

 

Busy not being in Norcal... I'll be out of this country and back in California in October though. What's going on with you?

 

Constantly checking craigslist for a good cheap FC that doesn't have a coolant leak.

 

loll I'm not sure if craigslist is the best place to find such a deal. How about Autotrader or Ebay? That's where I've found the last two FCs I own...

 

There are like hardly any rx-7's on autotrader that aren't mega low mile verts that people want WAY too much for

 

I'm never touching any verts, simply because of the neighborhood I live in. And I haven't gone ebay because my budget is under $1,500.

 

Hey guys, it's effing hot up here! Hate summer temps!

 

Can only work on the car until about 10:30 in the morning then its already too damn hot to do anything. Plus where I work, if its 90 outside its about 110 ambient temp where I work with about 80% humidity. Im ready ffor winter again!

 

Lol I ordered some exhaust gaskets and hangers to finish off the exhaust on my 1st gen but I'm going to have to get up a the crack of dawn to put it together without sweating my *** off.

 

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

 

What's wrong with the clutch?

 

Crab Battle
