Well my car's break-in is completely done. I just got back from Mt. Baldy (a great set of twisties) and the engine is beautiful, Lucky 7 did an amazing job.

My dad and I also just finished bypassing the leaky ABS unit in my brother's car as well. So now the radiator in it is fixed and so are the brakes. All that is left for it is shocks, springs, and tires. However, it is now in drivable condition, so hopefully my dad will be available to bring it to the next meet on July 12th. Regardless if he can make it, I will definitely be coming in my car.

I'm glad you've got a connection! Where did you get a job at (if I may ask)? And thanks for the PM, you've got one as well.

I would definitely offer to pick you up for the next meet, but I've already invited my girlfriend, sorry.

Worst comes to worst I'll throw you in my backseat, but it sounds like Will has offered a ride in a bucket seat and you're a bit in the opposite direction. If it comes to it though, I will gladly stuff you in the back!

All right guys, meet is this saturday lets make it a good one.
I Finally got enough motivation to fix my 7. Turned out that a coupler for the fm had a hole worn in it. Decided to pull the bumper off and redo the hole system the right way. The previous owner did a real shitty job on everything in the car and I am tired of going over his work. I just want to sell it turn some profit and buy a different one. On top of that the alignment shop thinks I might have frame damage because the back tires are way out of alignment. I will show the print out on saturday.

I'm sorry to hear that. Are we talking about your black, turbo RX-7? I hope not, that thing is awesome.

Nope, not yet. I just about drove it home from South Coast Mitsu. I want to sell the lexus first. I don't want two car payments right now, economy is ****! So I thought why hurry, even though I really want it right now. So the lexus is for sale, and as soon as it sales I will go and buy one. I have my own financing already.....make of fact I have everything picked out and ready to purchase as soon as the hybrid sales

I will be there this Saturday, maybe bring my R1 Raven instead of the Lexus My friend who came in the TC, we put a turbo kit on it. He will be there too. Ready for a nice canyon run!

I hope you're not moving too far from the meet.

I bet a hybrid will sell pretty quickly now. When you get the EVO 10, will you be keeping your 3rd gen RX-7?
