YEAR and ill still be the king of the street dsms when i get back...
and my car isnt a gutted, illegal piece of shit either. Hopefully Hill
will keep his interests in DSMs (doubt it) instead of building another
amazing car and selling it to some punk.

If i were you guys id listen to josh and john real well...

Its a 1972 Mazda Rx-3. It had a 1146cc (70 cubic inches) two rotor engine in it. They call it a "12A". Kinda like Mitsu calls it a "4G63". The famous rotary engine is the "13B" that came in the RX7's. They are bigger. I'm rebuilding the 12A and putting that back in, since it all bolts up. I would like a turbo setup, but cant afford it, so its just a N/A motor right now, and its carburated. Im trying to stay on the cheap side.

probably thought twice about it...

... im assuming the gutted/piece of shit/illegal comment was directed at me ... you know your not gonna get a rise out of me...i dont care what you have to say as do 3/4's of the people in this town...you are well known as a shit talker...you act like your shit is the fastest thing around...find a dsm to race that is comparable to your car...a fwd 16g has alot working against it...i bet Jarel will beat you...i bet sean will beat you...once he gets his new fc tuned of course...there are other cars that can beat you...your 13.7 isnt unbeatable...john hill and josh beat those times for free on a first gen...but those were illgal too huh...there is always a excuse with you...you wont run justin on slicks(its cheating) same story with nitrous huh...and when i beat you it will be because im gutted...

save your shit for somebody who cares...people see you for what you are...

...and listening to john and josh is a good idea...maybe you should...

yeah and that was from 3000miles away...still feel like a tough guy...
edit: and your gst was slow...my buddy with his mk3 supra handed you your ass...and yeah he was stock(mustve been the 2 extra cylinders)...or the 9psi of boost!

great gas mileage :laugh:
 
It's nice to see that you got a start on your project Josh.

I'm currently working on a 71 VW Beetle for my next daily driver, then comes the fun car. I'm glad to see that there are a few DSMs still left in Reno. I think everyone started to wise up :p

It wasnt directed towards you specifically. every 1g car or shit, 2g car i see in reno that people are attempting to fix up is a piece of shit. and theyre going about things the wrong way too.... i look at your posts john and that other dude with the green gst and i just laugh... everything seems like bs. just the way you setup your stories or your mods and how your going about things makes me feel sorry for your car. yes, jarrel has a nice car - i forgot about his, but i havnt seen a clean 1g since johns. i just hoped a better future for dsms in this down but again im dissapointed.

and i dont know what your talking about as far as the mk3 supra... this is just more shit that you make up. whatever floats your boat though.

when i wrote the orriginal post, it was out of frustration for this wannabe dsm community we have in reno. i guess i just had higher expectations being from the beginning we hade a nice group of people with nice cars and nice enthusiasm. after that fell apart, it seemed that every dsm floating around reno was mostley owned by white trash. i deleted the post cuz i realized i just didnt care... i dont want to fight, its not even worth my time. maybe there is still hope left in the future though, i guess ill find out when i return to reno.
