i think you shoulda kept the subaru. can you get your shameful car out of the driveway yet? So, i was thinking about making a post in the rx7 forum to see if all the seven guys want to go for a mountain drive and go camping over the summer sometime. You wanna go?[/b]

ya I might be down, I might be moving to steamboat in the summer but maybe I'll still be here, Yeah I got the car out and now it's torn apart at the shop haha, I can't get a break from the thing it seems, as far as all the v8 haters well sweet it's not your haha. Laurel is kidding i think if she really hated me she wouldn't have informed me about a meet. Yeah the subie was sweet, I might built another one ic I move to steamboat, cause the 7 aint going to cut it. Or save and build a supra later in my life.

Yeah. The subaru was too sexy. Lol my cousin drove a geo in steamboat for a few years while she went to CMC... she rolled it on the way up somehow. You can always come down the mountain when we go camping we could camp up the poudre although redfeathers cooler. I'm way too scatter brained right now. So, i'm just going to stop.[/b]

scatter brained at 8:40pm? still recovering from the previous night or did you get an early start today?

gah. I don't feel like explaining... But i will say go ahead and do a v8 swap but just know that i think you're gay. especially if you're going to put a v8 in a fd. ;][/b]

LOL!!!!!
Kinda harsh, but at least you aren't afraid to voice your opinion. I can appreciate the work that goes into the swap, but it does defeat the purpose of owning the FD and completely f@!ks the weight balance of the car. But that's ok if your going in a straight line.

SpeedRacer · Postby **SpeedRacer** » Mon Jan 14, 2008 9:14

Well since you agree its settled then swaps are gay :P

Unless you end up with three rotors.

Actually it doesn't. The LS1 only weighs about 70 lbs more than the 13B IIRC, maybe not even that much. My buddy did the swap and that thing drives great still. He still goes with us on backroad spirited drives and it's awesome. I've driven it a couple times and hope to do the swap to another FD someday. I won't do it to my current FD because I'd feel like I was turning my back on the rotary and that will NEVER happen, but I hope to get a rolling chassis and put in an LS1.

I was driving down the highway and went to pass someone in 6th gear at around 2-3k RPMs, I didn't even have to downshift...just put my foot in it and moved.

Actually it does but that's okay you can go ahead and keep telling people it doesnt. More 20b for me.
