      You have to pay to play.

      Some just don't have the balls to play.

            Did a bit more work...

            Pulled shortblock apart and inspected. HUGE gouge from the apex seal. Rotor and housing are both fubar'd.

            Pulled front bumper off/rebar , pulled out radiator, and a few other small things.

            Cleaned up a bit and prepared for the new shortblock arriving soon. I also went over all of my bolts and brackets etc. and made sure they were all labeled for easy assembly.

            Good Shortblock Parts


            Front bumper...

            Found a nice storage place for it



            Like my sweater?

              And this is why I would never want to own an FD...

              They make you wear crazy sweaters.

                        Good stuff Aaron.

                        So the plan is to have her ready by spring or what?

                          That's the plan, but I doubt it will happen. Too much stuff to buy, not enough expendable cash.

                          I'm hoping to have it done by May/June

                            **** Waiting.

                            Waiting pisses me off to no avail

                            Should be a nice ride when your done with it

                              I hope so...

                              So plans for tomorrow.

                              Dropping the transmission... clean and prep the tranny tunnel for undercoating.

                              Pull Engine subframe and all the suspension a-arms... send that away for powdercoating.

                                You still content with the Rx7 over a skyline or other choices? I almost bought one of these but the horror stories got to me....unfortunately i ignored the ones about gtr's.

                                Your build looks well done, especially like how your keeping the exterior stock. Far too many rx-7's going over the top with wings and body kits.
