501 was the shop it was parked in front of, im tired of working on it at my place and just didnt want to mess with it anymore.
anyhowsit' im picking up a near mind 91 gtu tomorrow morning.
i guess i need to go ahead and buy a nopistons sticker for her. i guess god didnt want me to leave the rotary community, i commited blasphemy with camshafts and valves and he smote me upon the curbside, then blessed me with 2 rotors.

Amen!
God has shone a light upon the error of your ways and so shall he light your way down the path to righteousness and rotaryness.

its painfully slow! but otherwise i love it. however 10 minutes into driving it home it broke down lol, the plastic neck that goes over the thermostat cracked and sprayed coolant everywhere.
other then that the only problem is the collant buzzer that stays on constantly, hopefully i will get the fc back friday and get after these small problems. i found out it had a bit more done to it other then the suspension, intake and brakes, it has an 8lb racingbeat flywheel, an act 3 clutch and a b&m short shifter. feels really good, and the polyeurethane motor and tranny mounts = nice and stiff

mazdatrix now seels an aluminum replacement for that plastic thermostat housings, the stockers are like $50 or something, the aluminum one i think is $115, of course it came out after i bought my new stock one lol.
im guessing the coolant buzzer is on cause you lost a bunch of coolant maybe?
sounds like a nice deal tho. hawt.

coolant buzzer was going nuts before i cranked it up, just turned the key to acc. and it started blaring, trammell and i are going to get after it soon. its pretty dang annoying and loud.
the sunroof doesnt work either
thats the next thing to get fixed.

also when the neck broke and coolant went all over, my friends following say when it happened i gave off a huge puff of black smoke... then a smaller but longer duration puff of white smoke. when i went to crank it over no smoke at all, am i in the clear? or should i be worried? im still getting back into the hang of an rx7 and all the quirky crap they do. also the greddy collent temp gauge never got over 150, so it didnt overheat.

did it start afterwards? maybe it blew more than the neck? hopefully not a coolant seal
