Its ridiculous that people get on the phone to make a 911 call when their car is going 90+.

I might rock a cam and an ls6 intake at some point but the car should be plenty of fun as it sits. This year I just want to drive it and not worry about any mods. This next winter I plan on beefing up the rear end mounts and adding a pinion snubber to get rid of wheel hop. So it may be a while unless I come across a good deal.

I would say 10-11k. Which is high, but will basically get me what I have into the car back. Like I said, no rush to sell it but if someone was willing to pay that much I would have to put some serious thought into it.

Thanks man, hopefully more respond!

Hello, Cummins has started a team to ride in the 2010 Tour De Cure held at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. All funds raised go to the American Diabetes Association. Diabetes is a disease that has at the very least affected someone you know and/or care about, this is a chance in taking steps towards a cure. I am pledging to ride the 50 Kilometer road 'course' and a victory lap around the track. I need to raise a minimum of $150 in donations just to be able to ride, but I think that we can do much better than that, so I am setting my personal goal to $500. Also, your donation will help team Cummins meet our $5,000 goal! If you are willing to donate do not be discouraged by the amount of your donation, any little bit helps. Donating is easy, you can use your credit card/debit card and donate by using the link below, nice thing about this is you can print off a receipt if you want to make a deduction from your taxes next year. Or if you want you can swing by my desk and drop off a check or cash. The event is on 6/12/2010, if you can't donate and want to wait, that is fine too. http://main.diabetes.org/site/TR/TourdeCure/TDC265568030?px=3413197&pg=personal&fr_id=6867 Thanks for your time and help, Regards, Berto Nunes

It wasn't bad. Undoubtedly, I think about 50% of the work was doing research on 'da internets'. I got mine 'done' in 2 months but I was working on it almost every afternoon after work. -Load Leveler for the engine hoist is a must. Go through a few build threads you will get an idea for what to look out for and how to save some cash.

Everything is for sale for the right price!

I started Nov 1st and had the car ready to start by Dec 31st. The only reason I didn't start it up earlier was I had to send the PCM to get a bunch of stuff tuned out. I am pleased with how quick I got it done, the v8Rx7 forum was crucial in my success. This project is a direct result of this forum too. If any of you remember when I first joined I didn't know how to change brake pads and I learned from many of you. So I hope this might give some ideas or incentive to others that might not feel like they can do something like this!

Am I the only person that doesn't think Gorillaz is very good? It sounds what like if Ray Charles made a rap CD, terrible.

So as many of you know I was tired of my car, putting money into the rotary and not seeing results. Hell I tried to sell the car. So I figured what the hell, I'll put an LS1 in it. Best way to keep you guys updated is to just check my build thread on v8rx7forum.com http://www.v8rx7forum.com/showthread.php?57836-Berto-s-LS1-T56-FC-Swap-Build-Thread-(Picture-Heavy!) For those of you that are lazy here is a vid and pic, basically cliffnotes. I need a new picture of the engine bay cleaned up. All thats left to hit the streets is i need to make my exhaust this weekend. http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c192/BertoBizkit/RX-7/LS1%20Swap%20into%20the%20RX-7/DSC03351.jpg Video: http://s27.photobucket.com/albums/c192/BertoBizkit/RX-7/LS1%20Swap%20into%20the%20RX-7/?action=view&current=MOV03367.flv

Finished up taking car of a few leaky hose clamps and start making the exhaust. Probably get the LS1 on the road in a week. http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c192/BertoBizkit/RX-7/LS1%20Swap%20into%20the%20RX-7/th_MOV03367.jpg

Was this one of those jobs you wish you would have just paid someone to do? lol

GOOOOOAAAAALLLL

5k is budget? damn. I'll just buy LS1s.

Was Tiger Woods at the bar?

+1. "where is your ring?" "ohhh my ring! someone one must have stole it"

Dang I need to dyno the RX7 but we have a 4 wheeling trip planned that weekend.

Yeah my F-150 feels better in the snow than my civic does, and its 2wd.

my 1.8 06 does 35 -40 mpg depending on the season.

Sorry I have to do this. http://www.nydailynews.com/img/2009/09/15/alg_kanye-west_taylor-swift.jpg

holy crap man, congrats!

I know last year I got a yr susbcription for $30 I think? Anyone know of any deals going on now?

Like a few guys said on here. I am super paranoid about leaving my garage open. I'll be a good 5 mins away and turn around to come back and check. Sometimes even if I sit there and watch it go down I need to come back and make sure. I do this at least 2-3 times a week. Volumes must be in even numbers. Gas cap must click 3 times, no more, no less. I'll try to think of more.

You'd be a great politician.

Very nice, they took their sweet time to release this but looks like they did a good job. Wonder what the price tag is on that?
