There is some serious motivation to get the Cosmo to DGRR this year. As of today, there is at least one of the each registered:
RX-2
RX-3
RX-4 (2)
RX-5 (mine)
REPU

Plus all the 7's and 8's.

Body shop screwed me. Basically told me that they decided to put some contract work before my car at the last minute, and they can't get to my car till September. He even said it with a kind of smirk... I wanted to punch him in the face.

So the 8 goes as is with paint pealing and without my new body panels. Sad times... Just have to get the breaks flushed and bled, and the transmission swapped, and I guess that's all that's getting done for this year.

I think next year it's going to need a new motor... it's feeling a little sluggish...

No idea what you're talking about. Was referring to the Harlequin VW Golf from the mid 90's.

Find a nicer one Kyle take time get one you won't want to Murder.

Although there is lots of potential for many beers and friends around those parts so it might be a great idea to find a project.

I guess those are my thoughts.

I mean it seems like the only thing wrong besides some body stuff is just the sequentials.... Which would be on the list to covert anyway. Am I crazy? The body doesn't bother me much because I can fix it.

Not bad. Kannapolis, NC. Isn't that Rotorsport?

Just sad how 'little' $8500 gets you with an FD :sigh:

I'm not sure. I emailed asking what shop they were and just a little about the history of the car. Isn't it a relatively easy job to convert the turbos to non sequential? I'm really not too concerned with the paint and body at this point. I'm pretty sure I can find headlight covers and a fender for cheap. The only bad thing with the body I see is the big dent in the drivers rear quarter.

I am in the process on non-sequentialing my FD. Followed Landers write up which is pretty straight forward.
