Re: "Look at your chassis code

why do people think their "FB". its an SA22C dammit."

Hmm, lessee, my vin says, " J-M-1-F-B-3-3-..." Hmm, you better check the facts. I believe that all American RX-7s from '80 to '85 had chassis codes that started out that way. So our topic starter really does have an "FB" not an "SA". Come to think of it, the "33" after that is (i'm GUESSING here) attributed to the fact that it's a series 3 car (mine as well as his). I recall most times I saw the "SA" it had a "22" next to it, etc. But whatever.

And to RX7_Drifter:
I'd search the rx7club.com forum for info on the limited slip differential for your car. If you've got a GSL-SE or a GSL, you should already have it. While it's easiest to break the tires loose without it, I've read in the second-gen forum there that the clutch-type LSD is actually beneficial to drifting, more so than the later-used "viscous-type" (aka "magic-goo") system. Why am I mentioning all that? Our older cars utilized the first type. So check it out.

Oh, and keep the car. Learn on it. They're great cars. And when (if) your skills outgrow the car, then you can have fun making the BIG jump to a Turbo II. Have fun out there.

A great place to read up on first gens is Grassroots motorsports. There are always articles in the on them. I have owned numerous ones and they are great cars. They tear up classes in the scca. Motors are cheap and readily available as are aftermarket parts. Ebay has stuff for them all the time.

I don't understand why someone would buy a car just to learn how to drift in it. What happens if you dont like drifting and then you spent all this money on a car for it? Keep that first gen. It's a great all around car. Plus its old school and that is making a comeback.

you freakin immature disrespectful..i dont even know what to call you. thats seriously the stupid, lamest, most disrespective thing ive ever seen. you are FAR more retarded than that. excuse me for being overly sensitive on this issue, but thats just, i cant stand it. honestly, you made me sick there. dude.

if you're gonna come on here and ask for questions, try being humble. you will get much more help and respect. as for something like that, forget respect. forget anythin.

im the one who tried several times to post about all this trash and stuff and tried to establish some peace and a lot less flames on the board..but okay, yeah, im being a hypocrit right now. oh well, i have a right to be. just seriously, think twice next time before you post something like that you dumb jerk.

I feel just the same.

And one thing that I hate in that picture is that there is name for "special olympics", it's called paralympics! And there isn't anything wrong with people competing in paralympics. For example my father in law was leader of Finnish paralympics team in Sydney 2002. And his in wheelchair because of his illness in his childhood (has been in chair since he was 6 years old), but he has great job in the biggest bank of scandinavia. So they are just normal people like anyone of us!

Hope to see someday someone in wheelchair drifting like no other!
