FD is the chassis model of that year RX-7 like our Chassis is SW20. I think its the 3rd gen RX-7, thr 93 and up year models.

yeah that fd info sounds right to me, but i do prefer the fc's personally. Yeah thats a hardtop NB miata in the background. That hard top is worth drooling over, they are the holy grails of the miata world because they are semi-rare and expensive. Nice Mr2 by the way, almost reminds me of the porsche big bird.

I'm glad I wasn't the only one.

I was just starting to get the hang of all the engine codes words (5S-FE, 3SGTE, XY-ZM2 ) and board code words (OP, PO, WTF, STFU, KTNXBY) so now I have to learn the code words for RX-7s.

yea it was pretty fun, but i threw a code 52 near the end at idle, scared the crap out me. The Manuel said it was the knock sensor giving a signal, but i guess the sensor is just bad, atleast thats what it said online.

I think somethings wrong though, juan was walking me at 5 psi when im at 12. i checked my turbo this morning and it has some bad shaft play .
