New to IA- My 87 FC3S n/a RX7

[Boosted FC]

I read that like 4 times and still don't understand it... You mean get rid of the FB? If so, I'm actually trying to...

I'd love a nice T2. Pix of the new one?

Pics are in this thread...Back in the game.

Hey, where's the cream filling?

[87 Turbo II]

Brett, I actually think QD meant get another FB. Haha

Oh some bitches face haha

Brett, I actually think QD meant get another FB. Haha

I bet Ray and all the other old guys would agree. I feel so much more... hmm... modernized in the FC compared to the FB. You'll understand since you've had both (even though yours were more similar power wise).

Yeah, well I'm going to have Ray's old car soon,so I'll have the power of my old Fb, with the nice tight tolerances and S3 dash of Ray's immaculate shell (also all the electrics will work, the weather stripping and stuff is preserved and well looked after, so maybe that gap will continue to lessen. I also think I'm going to replace some suspension bushings while I'm pulling everything apart. That;ll REALLY make the car feel new, I also need to source some cheap hockey pucks for good motor mounts since I'm going to have the motor out for the swap anyway.

I remember Collin telling me about hockey pucks. How much are new motor mounts anyways? But yeah, in the end it's going to be an awesome car. I'll lend a hand too if you guys set up a meet/swap/chill day.

That's exactly what I meant, lolol. Fuck FCs. If you have an FB, why get rid of it. Later, QD.

Brett you wish your car was as nice as mine.

[87 Turbo II]

Brett you wish your car was as nice as mine.

and you wish you could drive it



owned

[thegovanator]

lolz

[Boosted FC]

The old hockey puck motor mounts......lol

[BrettLinton7]

Brett you wish your car was as nice as mine.

Hey now. Mine's got the bling rims now, what yo shit got huh? lol. True though, I'd love to have your FC. Get a header, remove the emissions, fab up a CAI and I'd be good to go

I'd be glad to drive it instead of mine for a while so it wouldn't have to just sit at your house...

[thegovanator]

I've got CAI, I have to meet emissions ( Damn Gwinnett) and a header could be done quite easily. I need new tires though

[BrettLinton7]

Are you talking about the stock S5 CAI? Ehhh... Yeah, I hear you on the emissions shit. Forsyth is the same way, but Dahlonega and Dawsonville aren't Move! lol. You still on those bald tires from a few months back?

[Genji-Sama]

Love the outside, not so much the inside.

[5speed]

Too bad I'm too tall for an FC, I almost got a 91 Turbo but my knees were on the steering wheel with the seat all the way back. Nice car and nice work!

[puregroove]

nice car, man...

[DVSRX-7]

was up Brett, the names Roger! watch out for the wall ok! lol nice wheels man.. hope to see you sunday

[87 Turbo II]

Too bad I'm too tall for an FC, I almost got a 91 Turbo but my knees were on the steering wheel with the seat all the way back. Nice car and nice work!

Those cars have tilting steering wheels, but the release lever is hidden, took me 8 months of owning my FC back when I owned an FC to realize the wheel tilted lol.

[jdm eg6]

nice fc keep up the good work

[thegovanator]

No I have a Blitz in my garage that I had on before I met you. Yea I'm still on bald tires.

[BrettLinton7]

Love the outside, not so much the inside.

Por que? I love the inside, when it's clean

nice car, man...

Hey, right back at ya. I remember seeing the car in your avatar back at the April/ March OSJCM Meet at Mary Alice Park.

was up Brett, the names Roger! watch out for the wall ok! lol nice wheels man.. hope to see you sunday

lol, yeah I'll be out there, but in the FB this time. That tank would take the wall out! haha

Those cars have tilting steering wheels, but the release lever is hidden, took me 8 months of owning my FC back when I owned an FC to realize the wheel tilted lol.

I finally swapped a tilt column in the FC about 2 months ago when I swapped locks and keys and everything. It wasn't so helpful before, but now with the new wheel it makes everything sooo much better.

nice fc keep up the good work

Thanks man. I'm actually about to park it (if the plan goes on like it should). I'm swapping blocks from the 275K one to a 115K one, removing all the emissions bs, and possibly swapping in an LSD, aligning the wheels, and doing some body work too. It's gonna be much, much better once I get everything the way I want it...

No I have a Blitz in my garage that I had on before I met you. Yea I'm still on bald tires.

Why'd you take the Blitz off? If it's a whole CAI combo or whatever, I might be interested in buying it if you don't want it anymore and I'm not poor

[puregroove]

Right on, man. --hope to see you at future meets.

[Sunkenkarma]

Awesome, I just picked up an '88 FC, Loving it so far, But, How much did you pay for the hood, and what did those seats come out of? Id like those over my cloth seats =)

[kain]

yayop, nice fc brett.

sircygnus from the 7 club.

btw, i got me a new wing. thanks for nothing.

The seats are from a 'vert RX7, and I got a deal on the hood for $60 since it has hail damage. It's aluminum though, so it's a win in the end. Nice ones go for around $200.

btw, i got me a new wing. thanks for nothing.

You're welcome! I took off the duckbill and sat a stock wrap-around one on a while back, and I didn't like the look, so now I've got an extra wrap around one

[thegovanator]

^ I would sell it to you but your always poor haha

[G'd[UP]]

Nice car man, keep it up!!!!

[bdydrpdmazda]

Im an RX-7 fan!

[BrettLinton7]

^ I would sell it to you but your always poor haha

Hey, I've finally got a decent paying job If you really want to sell it, what's it all god? Like a CAI box and filter? I'll buy it for the FC, since I'm about to park it since the coolant seals are shit...

Nice car man, keep it up!!!!

Thanks, you too. I remember seeing your 'vert on CL, and a buddy of mine (Blake) with a bike talking to you about trading in Dawsonville wouldn't stop bugging me with questions about your car How'd that end up anywho? He's not the smartest crayon in the box...

[thegovanator]

No box, no aftermarket manufacturer has included a box with their FC intake.



looks like this

Aww. So it's just the filter? Any real gains? How much? lol

[BrettLinton7]

So I'm parking the FC either tomorrow or Friday, and starting to DD my new Maxima. Motor swap, LSD rear end, emissions removal, body work... it's gonna be sweet.

[BrettLinton7]

FC's parked... Now driving a Maxima Fun fun, right?

[87 Turbo II]

Front wheel drive though....... but hey, the VG30 is such a good motor, I forgive it a little.........

[BrettLinton7]

It's not really fun at all, but the smoothness and electronic junk all around make me feel like I'm in a Lexus. It's rather nice..

[DVSRX-7]

lol man stop selling drugs brett, i know that how you get all your money, you dont deliver pizza's liar

lol,

lol man stop selling drugs brett, i know that how you get all your money, you dont deliver pizza's liar

I wish. I got the Maxima for $1800 with the graduation money I got back from paying for my first semester of college since I got the Pell Grant, I've had the FC and have gotten deals on/ bartered for everything that's on it for almost 4 years, and I bought the FB non running for cheap and haven't put over $100 in it. What drugs you talking about?

[BrettLinton7]

For an update, I'm delivering one last time in the FC tonight before the insurance drops Tuesday. Then she'll get ripped apart and molested (in the good way...) lol
