You coming Adam? Sweet! I can bring the sample copy of the article

Phoenix,
I usually autocross the RX-7 (I've taken the P71 twice, once just to try it and the other time when the 7 was on jackstands getting a new clutch). With the new tires I've been able to embarrass a lot of higher-HP cars, but it's still down on power to really crack the Top 10 in class and overall like Josh does. So far the pile in the garage includes a RB street header and pieces for a custom 2.5" exhaust, an electric fan, and some non-essentials (gauges, driveshaft loop, brakes). I'm also looking into rebuilding the Nikki, adding a carb hat with a CAI and cone in a box instead of the metal pan, removing all of the emissions/vacuum/smog crap, changing the radiator, and rebuilding the rear LSD. All on top of the bodywork, paint, and interior re-do!
