Hello, new member!

Hello -

After lurking the forum for a while, I actually got a reason this weekend to join the forum. I acquired a 2009 Series II in great condition. I performed the compression test before ponying up the cash; it passed with flying colors.

I'll post some pics when I get proper ones taken; right now, all I have is a couple of hastily taken iPhone pics.

My brother used to own an FB 12A back in the day, so I'm familiar with the Wankel's intricacies, although a lot of time has passed since then, so I'm sure there's some catching up to do. Needless to say, he got all giddy when he saw I wasn't bluffing and got the car.


See you later!

This weekend I changed the fluids, namely the engine, tranny and diif oils.

Looking good. That color is pretty unique where I live. Only one of them on the island.

Enjoy and have fun!
