OK... Well its been a very long time since I've been at this site. I personally thought my account wasn't active anymore. I was wrong. Anyways, the RX7 is parked onces again. In the spring of 2005 i got it to start with a bit of effort. To make the long story short. I lost my job that was close to home so i had to get another. When i did it was to far to walk and to busy to bus so i had to aircare the car. Which cost me $450.00 at Speedy's.Passed aircare and started to drive it like crazy.I was driving it so much that i didn't realize how much money i was spending for gas. I added a Racing Beat Header, took the cat out and then straight piped it to the stock muffler. I thought it sounded interesting but it was loud....hehehe. This mod actually caused my car to suck more gas (that didn't stop me from driving it more). Oct 10, 2005 i lost my driving licenses for 3months because of a stupid move i made (intoxicated a bit).Don't worry i will never do it again. I had no choice but to drive my car home or leave it somewhere that may put my car in harms way. I didn't get charged. I thought I'd cool for a bit anyways (driving waaay tooo much).
My initial plan is to do a TII engine/tranny/rear end swap. Keep The N/A engine and make it my project to build a 12a race engine. The swap will be done by the end of summer 2006 and i will post pics, lots of them.
