I'm far from a newb to RX-7s. Just new to the forum. Just surfing around it last nite gave me a nice feeling about the atmosphere projected here unlike some of the other forums where its a bash fest most of the time.

I've owned my current RX-7 for almost 15 years. 1988 GTU. When the engine puked out the last time I didn't have the time, money or motivation to do anything to it besides part it out. Luckily I was to lazy to really try and sell parts of it. That was 4 years ago that I parked the car and pulled the engine. Recently I've been looking at Miatas and Boxsters but I need a car with a back seat so my wife suggested a normal sedan or suv and that I should fis the RX-7 as a weekend play thing. Gotta Love that woman for even saying I could fix the RX-7. So I am. Found a car in the Atanta are that's a stalled project with a rebuilt engine and some performance parts. Hope to get the car in a few weeks and be on the road to RX-7 recovery.

Hey herblenny. We've meet at Luis's before. The carb shop one night when I was working with Luis on a screaming 12A. My car was the one with the skunk stripe(i was younger when I the stripe was added). Black with with stripe and a supra style wing. The wing came in handy when the car stopped running. It was like pushing a shopping cart around walmart.
