[quote name='jhammons01' date='Jul 18 2005, 01:57 PM']I have to agree with 1988redT2. there weren't any muscle cars coming out then. The '82 stang with a 5.0 in '82 but that wasn't well recieved either. A lot of the little imports were viewed as OK. The Big american V8s were viewed as Dinosour material. You look at the numbers of units sold. The FB was huge. The FC was close but the FB was larger in units sold. I'll get numbers

If you're talking about showroom stock vehicles, then yes. They are faster. If you're talking about modified vehicles then the sky is the limit. Anything that can be done to an FB or FC can be done to an FD too. So for drag racing purposes, ANY chassis can go fast.



But if you start to act like your FB or FC can handle like an FD, I'm going to spew my stolen Red Bull all over the screen from laughing my ass of.

Might wanna tell that to the $15k+ worth of parts sitting upstairs in my room, or to rob whos just finishing off the $8k+ paint and bodywork.



Ill gladly drive out to OK when the cars finished, itlll most likely be running this winter, the only reason its taking so long is i havent had the car in my posssesion since september so ive been taking my time with the motor.



As for some real reasons the fd sucks:

1) Heaviest 7

2) Turbo Systems is more complicated and problem-prone then the entire motor

3) Makes peoples heads enlarge dramatically

4) Owners = embarassing

5) Can they say DIY? no, no they cant.

[quote name='teknics' date='Jul 19 2005, 12:37 AM']1) Heaviest 7

It's a passenger away from the TII, and a totally different class than the FB.



2) Turbo Systems is more complicated and problem-prone then the entire motor

A)Go single. B)It's called technological advancement, it has upsides and downsides, including complication.



3) Makes peoples heads enlarge dramatically

Perhaps it's the people who buy FDs have big heads to begin with, and for some reason, they're the only ones you pay attention to.



4) Owners = embarassing

Good luck finding the subject and predicate of that sentence.



5) Can they say DIY? no, no they cant.

I can. Everything I've done to my car since I bought it something that either I designed, or something that I did all the work on or something that I painted in my garage.



6) "OMG this shop screwed me"

And you think that the previous models are any better? An unscrupulous mechanic is an unscrupulous mechanic, no matter what year RX-7 you take to them, they just assume they can take more from FD owners.



7) "I tried finding a vacuum leak....where does this go"

That's what happens when you don't learn anything about what you're working on before you try to take it apart. Five minutes of pre-tear down research can save you five hours of "what the hell is this thingy, and do I really need it" later on.



8) "my mechanic said my head gasket....."

Stupidity is rampant when it comes to rotaries, but I don't see how this is any more relevant the one gen than the other two.



9) Every ricer wants one

And every Dori Dori wannabe Initial D "hey I did a powerslide on gravel, I'm a drifter" dumbass wants an FC.



10) about 75% of them have shopping cart wings.

No, they don't.



11) Star car of fast and the furious

I thought that was a Supra. The FD is on screen for about four minutes.



12) Cramped engine bay, i think so

Go single, and do some DIY and clean it up. Have you ever seen under the hood of a CTS-V? FDs are like the Grand Canyon compared to that.



13) Everyone assumes all rx7s are twin turbo because of the fd

OH Noes! People are assuming!! What ever will we do??



14) Overpriced, come on now its a 12yr old mazda...

It's a 12 year old Mazda that, stock for stock is still thousands less than any other car in that class and can top most of them performance wise as well.



15) Supposively "everyone wants one"....i used to, but then i actually thought about it.

So?

as for 23k to go on a 2k car. s5 t2s are like $6k so neener neener. :P



As for "SilverSeven" those quotes were sarcastic comments about things most heard in the 3rd gen forum. in fact the whole list was rather sarcastic.



ive said it a bunch before i dont care what car it is, i like the rotary itself. and fd, fc etc. i just happen to drive an fc. i plan on owning an fb and an fd (the g/f wants one) The only things im concerned about with my car is the motor and the driveline. I dont really care about looks, or style or whats hot. Hell the only reason i got an aftermarket bumper was because i despised the weak ass popups.



anyway back to 94t, you can find me a road by you to have a nice drag and when the car is tuned ill gladly drive down, but somethings gotta be on the line, how bout i win you sleep with dramon, i lose umm dramon gets shot in the head?
