Evo owner discovering new curiousity

Kman Art · 08-29-2013, 06:49 PM

Always been into Hondas and actually hated RX7s due to trips to Moroso Raceway for drag events. Latest car (96 civic) was going to be an auto cross car n somehow ended up becoming a 734whp drag car.

It wasn't until I moved home and my interest in auto cross kicked back in and had a friend selling his 93 FD. Car was almost completely bone stock, but needed serious maintenance due to having around 90,000 miles.

My biggest issue is that I'm not only very new to rotaries, but have nobody in my neck of the woods to assist me aside from one of my mechanics that has rebuilt 12As before. This site has tons of info and companies with answers waiting for you. I'm also on another site that I source info from as you cannot have too much info.

Oh yeah, the car currently has est.300hp and weighs 2,600lbs even. This is with 18x9 cheap wheels wrapped in Toyo R888 275/35/18, everything blocked off, FMIC, Koyo rad, full interior and ac, 3" exhaust with cat deleted, PowerFC, Pettit coilovers, and a few other suspension mods.

Lol my daily driver, when I'm not adding parts to it, is a 2006 Ram diesel dually 6spd. I enjoy dabbling in all kinds of performance hehehe.

Bottom line, I regret not buying it sooner! These cars are loads of fun!!!
