You better get pics!

[Mr1der]

what's a rex?

is this what the "cool" kids are calling the RX-7's nowadays?

[TachyonS14]

Ya, ppl call a crx a rex same with a wrx and same with an rx7. But whoever does the vin check will surley know ;-)

[crzycav86]

I don't see why you're getting all excited over a crx..

Unless you're actually referring to a real jdm tyte tyrannosaurus rex! That would be pimptastic.

But seriously, why must you confuse everyone by calling it a rex? It's not like it's shorter than writing crx, wrx, or rx7, because they all have the same number of letters!

[ShadowKnight006]

Actually I believe he maybe referring to what is called a T-Rex, before anyone says it no not the dinosaur but the vehicle that runs off of a motorcycle engine and has like 2 wheels in the back and 1 up front. Maybe I am wrong. I'll try to find a pic.

[BB Turbo]

Yeah I ve seen that, looks dumb but is pretty quick I hear.You rich bastard!

That would be an RX-7.

[ShadowKnight006]

Here is what the T-rex I was referring to is, as for the original poster, I don't know.

[crzycav86]

I saw one of those driving down the street in the opposite lane for a split second. It is definitely quite the eye catcher.

BTW:0-60 in 4.1 seconds1.9 lateral g's on the skidpad.

[Megaseth]

i really dont think he's getting one of those. btw, its a busa engine, no?

[ShadowKnight006]

I don't know anymore than what they look like, but I wish the original poster would let us all in on what he meant.

[BadMojo]

The VIN he posted was for an RX-7.

[crzycav86]

yeah.. jm1 = mazda, and i'm assuming the fc is for the rx7

[BadMojo]

I have my super decoder ring at work, but I guess that's what it's for.

[Cold_Zero]

The VIN he posted was for an RX-7.

You are correct. Subarus start with JF1 if it is a passanger car made by FHI.

1N for a Nissan. BTW

[SnowMongoose]

damnit!14 posts, and none of you jokers have checked for the VIN?

damnit!

Yeah, the term rex is pretty widely used...this car is an....RX-7

in the mean time...CHECK THE VIN!:P

and yes, if someone hooks me up with some vin check lovin, I will for sure toss up pics of the car, as Im feeling good about it.

[BadMojo]

Unfortunately, my VIN checking powers have expired. Sorry, man.

[Cold_Zero]

Me 2. Mine disappeared in the late 80's along with the Justice League.

[crzycav86]

1N for a Nissan. BTW

You mean N1, right?

[SnowMongoose]

well, thanks anyway guys, eventually if we keep this on the top by virtue of everyone talking about which VIN goes where, someone will help me out.

unless they just assume that with so many responses, I couldnt possibly not have my answer yet.:P

Ashton

[Megaseth]

what do you need? a breakdown, or a check to see if its legit? if you just need to get it checked, register for a free carfax or something. i think you get 1 free one.

[andrave]

all MY friends call WRX's "rex's" so I say we discontinue use of the term.

[crzycav86]

SnowMongoose: Here's an idea to help you get that carfax report....

Do a search in this forum and in 240sx general for recent threads that asked for a carfax. Then send an email to the person who gave the carfax report. It might not work, but it's worth a shot.

[supra brit]

yeah, WRX to me = Rex...that's why i got so excited. But it's cool, what year Rx-7?

I'd do a VIN check but I'm not registered. Sorry.

[nismodave]

Why check a VIN for a Mazda?

This is a Nissan forum............dummy.

Go to a Mazda Forum.

Then when you use the gey REX term they might know what you are talkin about.

[SnowMongoose]

awesome dave, you were very helpful!

wanker!

Thanks to everyone else.

I was able to get it checked at a general automotive forum...as for not taking mazda VINs to a nissan forum, everyone but dave is pretty civil about it, and generally helpful.

Thanks everyone else!Ashton

[BadMojo]

awesome dave, you were very helpful!

wanker!

LOL...I like that.

Hope someone can help you out. You just missed my subscription by a day or two. Just keep hanging out, someone is bound to have a Carfax sub.

Anyway, let this serve as a...bump!

Ricebike:I lied, I posted it on some mazda forums as well as a pair of general forums...I just wasnt sure which it had come from, since it was Emailed to me.

try a honda specific forum, less chance of wankers busting in.
