shm21284 Posted July 15, 2008 Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 I'm Seth. Here's my car, which is not finished yet. Needs paint and some tidying up in the engine bay. http://img187.imageshack.us/img187/8804/n53801683303813724440hh4.th.jpg http://img171.imageshack.us/img171/7681/n53801683303813806994th2.th.jpg http://img237.imageshack.us/img237/3240/n53801683303813858628yz7.th.jpg http://img171.imageshack.us/img171/5309/n53801683303813941583rx9.th.jpg http://img187.imageshack.us/img187/1016/n53801683303813951909wc9.th.jpg http://img171.imageshack.us/img171/9894/n53801683303814013921fv7.th.jpg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shm21284 Posted July 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 How goes it? Hopefully I'll have her finished this summer so I can cruise in it! Strictly fun-on-the-track use, however. No street racing for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Posted July 15, 2008 Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 Very cool. Are you on ohio rotaries? I read there a lot but rarely post anymore. I have a 1984 GSLSE, second owner, mostly-rust free (tiny spot in the storage bin area. Surprise.) that's my garage queen and summer cruiser. Love it. RX-7's are for me, I hate 99% of what I've driven since then. Looks like the S5 is coming along well! If you come out sometime, I'll try and bring my FB.

shm21284 Posted July 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 No, I really hate forums. I stay off most of them; however, I'm going to give this one a try. I'll try to get her out soon! I'm waiting for the uber-rice JDM gayness flames. And no, I'm not prepared. PS I'm going to paint the car/hood gunmetal grey 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patrick Posted July 15, 2008 Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 thanks lol. CR's like a big soap opera. We laugh, we cry, we drink, and we fight. Then we race (on foot) on the street, then with big cars we spend a lot on at the track. It's the most enjoyable forum I am on. Cause it's active, and funny.

Guest Hal Posted July 17, 2008 Report Share Posted July 17, 2008 So you couldn't overnight parts from Japan? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Posted July 17, 2008 Report Share Posted July 17, 2008 So you couldn't overnight parts from Japan? See, this is why the RX-7 still runs. It's magic, correct. They were made in Hiroshima. Hiroshima=bombed by the A-Bomb. Irradiated the facility, and when the rotary was finally made in the plant, they were effected by the radiation, and therefore absorbed magic powers. This is why mine still runs perfectly. You can't overnight parts from Japan for these and take them in a Lightning in huge freaking stacks to your oil change shop which is really a secret street racing shop, because they have to sit in the radiation room to make them super. BTW, St. Anger really really really sucks. I'm listening to "Some Kind of Monster" and I fear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shm21284 Posted July 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2008 Go troll somewhere else. There's a 2 wheel section, try and tell them how cool you think your moped is compared to their real bikes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
