Nope $16k was before I was planning on going single. And the car was imaculate when I got it too. No motor replacement either. good portion of that went to handling deparment. Here are a few pics, just scroll down to my name http://www.rx7club.com/showthread.php?t=430558&page=4 the only thing that you don't see in the pics are the JDM Recaros. Under the hood 850cc all around, non-seq, pretty much every mod you could bolt on with out touching the turbos. I was making 347whp.
This is what she looked like when I got her a year before I sold her.
wtf lol JDM buckets and suspension ****, you were giving a tone like you were spending 16 grand on keeping the damn car running, not buying lavish things like seats and suspension components.

but i dont blame you those cars just ask for you to spend money on them, and good thing you opted out of that 20b rx8 project or else you would be back another 25-30k. man im just trying to conceive the type of fabrication needed for that job. it would take forever to make that subframe...

and 4k for a ported rebuilt motor with a haltech EMS is a steal you should have sold it for a little more

go ahead socalrotor. We may even have enough to make two run groups.

Xrider....I'm calling you tomorrow when I wake up. We'll see you at the park at 845. Loren and I will be leaving promptly at 850.

DAMN......blew up the tranny this morning. I will be getting my new one tonight and swaping to tomarrow. So it is 50/50 if I will be rolling my own car. I think the rotary relieablity crew might roll out, as well as a 400 + rwhp 93 with a single hairdryer.

Thanks. Not to stir the crap, but times like this I am glad I got a NA FC( 1987 RX-7 ) Cuz a FD or 8 tranny would break me off good. I am getting off easy, 150 for a recent rebuilt unit. I must thank rotary relieablity and racing( sisco ) for the excellent deal.

YES, Fast freddy's on harbor!!!
It is not a " for sure " thing, but louie and sisco might bring out the turbo 2's. I highly doubt they will be leaving from the shop. I wouldnt mind getting into a southbay caravan to malibu.

BTW dont tailgate me or..........

if this makes it more enticing to some who are questioning whether they should come tomorrow, or maybe wait till next month...the Ferrari and Lambo groups will also be there in the canyons tomorrow.
