damn. sorry to hear loren. did the guy take responsiblity or try to weasel out of it? if the damage looks over $500 u should take down his info anyways. then you can decide later if you want to report it to your insurance, and they will most likely try to investigate and collect damages for you. i think any one of us would be pissed too if this happened to us. hopefully the damage isn't too bad.

Cool Speed thanks, it doesnt look as bad after i washed it. Sopheak didnt think it was that bad but it sure does bug the hell out of me, especially at this time in my life. We may get our home as early as this weekend? Keith you can give your own opinion tonight at tennis.

:woot:
I know you guys dont care learly as much as I do, but they are making some progress on the Banning race track!!! I have been waiting 7 years for this damn track to get built. (it was even part of the reason I built the RX-7 as a drag car.) the track was announced on 2000, scedualed to be built in 2002 ( i belive) as you can tell 2002 came and went. there have been many MANY issues with the city and its residents getting the track finnalized for construction.

to make a short story long, a couple years agao (2005 or so) drag-city even made improvments to the freeway, its off ramps, and nearby streets to handle the traffic expected for the track. this was a requirement from the city. this alone took them a year and a TON of money.

anyways, its been a long LONG road, but it looks like it is accually going to happen this year!!!

Thanks guys for the reply about the oil. I'll probably check the oil every weekend. I do drive a lot in the weekend. So far from what I have read, Castro Oil is most common ones everybody has mentioned. Is there a top brand beside Castro Oil? I know also to use 5-20 type and I recently added and used Penzoil ( sorry I know I spelled it wrong). Penzoil 5-20 with synthic. So you guys say it's alright to use synthic oil. Is it better not to though? Or it just don't matter at all?

Dark, its really up to you. as of now there is no problem running synthetic in a rotary. its recomended if you have the money. problem is we burn the oil, so it can get expensive. but its really up to you.

depends on what it is. and how it broke.
most mod installs we do ourselves. stupid stuff like when I taillight had water in it of course goes to the dealer so it can be replaced under warranty.

things like spring, struts, sway bars, flywheels, pulleys... ect are do our selves. (well some of us at least)

That's cool. I'm still learning all the basic car parts and stuff. I recently got me a pair of fog lights, but I want it installed right so I'm taking it to somebody to be installed. Not the dealership though, their asking for too much for labor.
