Damn everyone was missing me. Lol been a long week to say the least. I got made a offer I couldn't refuse. I bought the car 1 yr ago for 21500 w/29k. Sold it for 23k with 52k miles a year later.
To top it off I got bit by a cat that had rabies and I had to get shots for that. Fuck.

I expect at least 50-75k out a 400+hp rotary. Stockish on stock turbo especially a T2 120k+ miles. This one is immaculate.

I'm afraid to ask, but why go from a 5.0 to..that? You're suppose to upgrade when you get another car. You went backwards! Slower and more prone to breaking! lol

re-rx7
05-21-2014, 05:35 PM
I don't have a really gd answer. It's just a car I've always wanted back. I like them. They are rare, timeless and to me beautiful. Unicorns. I had a mint one and mutilated it. I won't make the same mistake twice. The 5.0 was wonderful. This car will be lucky to break 200whp. It's the connection and of course the 5 foot flames they shoot lol.

They like to break. That's why they are rare. Yet when you see a nice one it gets attention.

There is a guy with an older LS-powered RX-7 near my house. I see him a lot of mornings getting gas at around the same time I do. It's a real beater, with a patchwork of body panels and big wheels/tires, but it's a neat car.

No a/c though. Fuck that as a daily driver. :gasp:

I can't say it was or is a dream car. It's a car that fits me. If that makes any sense. It makes me remember why I like cars.

Makes perfect sense. I have a soft spot for late 80's early 90's imports. They are what go me into cars. I love the mustang but can't wait until I can have an older toy in the garage like an FC, MR2, or another S-Chasis.

I'm not so sure its a Mustang forum anymore with so many selling their cars. Haha.

But since you poked your nose in, rx7 is a regional leader on RKC and its mainly a import forum.

I feel this forum has gone so far off its orginal intention that everything is a good convo it seems. Which is fine because most forums are dead and dying and this one seems to being doing alright. Mostly because of the conversations mentioned in this post. As the 5.0's begine to drop in value, traffic will increase in the forum as well.
