So, did it have shaft play?
|
How much extra does it cost to get a little shaft play?
|
20 bucks, I have a dead 14b for sale too.
I think I may have dropped about 40 IQ points in the last 2 years of my life. Maybe radon or something. I give up. Maybe I'll build a car for HPDEs with CL parts. And race it HPR. |
I'm thinking to sell my NB and use the money to fund the FD rebuild this spring. It means I wouldn't have anything to track/autox for the year though.

No, wankel baby as Mazda intended. As for the vette, I have been thinking of getting a used C5 Z06 in a few years to replace the miata for track use anyway. In the mean time, i just use the RX7 for the occasional track day (just drive carefully).

My motor has 101k original miles on it. A well known retired racer and rotary engine builder up in Green Bay will rebuild it for $2600 and guarantee it to 600 bhp. I'm staying twins but going with upgraded BNRs and shooting for 350 - 400 rwhp. It's not miata prices, but it's not LS1 swap either. This is going to be more my AutoX/Street queen long term, but till I buy a vette in a few years, she will see a few track days.
There are a lot of folks that don't take care of or poorly tune their rotaries and they blow up. But, there are also a lot of folks that due know how to take care of them and track them quite successfully. I'm working on eliminating a lot of the over complication and emissions crap and addressing the cooling issues with a custom V-Mount. I'm following several successful builds and I'm not too worried about the motor in the end. What I'm worried about, is my shit driving and putting it in a wall. They didn't make very many CYM R1s |
Ian originated the v mount on the fd. I here they gave him his own stickie on the fd sight. He autoxs with me in N. Cal FAST car. His fc is amazing and broken again . The fd is reliable for him. He just put $2700 in the clutch though and did all the labor. $1500 front sway bar and replaced GAB'a with Olins shocks and springs. Buying special order 12 s that he had to waite a year too recieve.Money hungry beast that is sooo fast. Love that car

Over here, €10k will buy you two full-size motorcycles, and not shitty ones either. For that money, you could have a CBR500R plus a KLR650 with a bit of money left over. A friend of mine bought an Audi Q7 in the states. In Seattle, to be exact, and she paid something like 45K for it. They go for $177,678 for the 3 liter diesel version here. Assume that a Q7 costs $45k in the US, and that the same car costs $177k in Turkey. That's $132k difference, assuming we're talking US$ in both cases. Where is that extra $132,000 going? I'm serious. Does the Turkish government tax the importation of German cars at 300% of MSRP? Do Audi dealers in Turkey make forty times as much profit as dealers in the US? Does Audi itself hate the Turkish people and want you to suffer? |
Is it just me, or did Malcolm Reynolds leave a lot of folks un-killed what ought to be?

I thought that the former "Mrs. Reynolds" should have been given a little time alone with Jayne as punishment before being handed over to the authorities. |
