as many know i bought a 85 rx7 gsl-se this past week. well i finally got around to getting it yesterday(saturday). my boy drove it down to me at around 12 midnite. its about a hour and a half drive. so i give him a ride back up to his house as soon as he gets here. seeing that it has a leaking slave cylinder(clutch) exhaust leak and a weird idle problem i decided i dont wanna drive this thing again for an hour and a half by myself on the highway home with no cell phone and nothing around, so i stay at his place. this morning i got up and took it for a little ride to the western union to grab some money. i couldnt find the wu so i returned back to his house. about 2 hours later we leave his house to go grab some dim sum before i got back home on the way there POP bye bye rotary engine. the damn car blew up on me. popped the apex seals. djfghsdfjghsdfg i'm so pissed and had a long *** day. mind you its -20 below zero here so i was stuck outside for 2 hours. i am just now regaining feeling in my feet. well back to finding a new daily driver. i was lucky and i returned the car to the owner since this really wasnt my fault and he sold me a bunk car.
