so i'm putting a motor in my car and i was thinking that the previous motor had been abused for the last 140k of its life by a long list of people.



joe ramos (bay area rx7 club president, bought the car new)

chuck davies (bay area rx7 club, i think he didnt really drive it that hard)

gene kan (beat the crap out of it)

me (beat the crap out of it)

alex pfeiffer (drifted it to a 2:25 lap of thunderhill on a couple of occasions)

seth wilson (he drifts it on the street)

todd ho has done some drifting in it too



its even possible that the esteemed david lane has beat on it too



i just thought that was pretty neat. it looks like joe is gonna get the car back, so its going in a full circle!

 

And it still runs?



Hehe.

 

i was changing the motor as i thought of this.....

 

But did it run before you took it out?

 

no it died in january https://www.nopistons.com/forums/ind...howtopic=41174

 

You going to keep the FB mike?

 

i might be down to 1fb! first time in a decade! we'll see if joe wants it or not

 

The only way to drive it!

 

i took the engine apart and i'm amazed at how nice everything is! except for the corner seal thing its ****

 

this is a bit off topic since you're only talking about one famous first gen... Anyway, I saw this 70's **** movie a long time ago where some chick breaks down in a silver FB right in front of a house. She knocks on the door for help and gets a firm toolin in the crapper!!! My point is A: If anyone has ever seen this flick and can get it to me cuz I can't find it anywhere and B: if anyone knows of any other movies where the FB is highlighted.



And no i don't know the name of the flick... I suk.
