Fedex courier/student/aspiring boat mechanic. Lmao. I started working part time at fedex, so I can pay for gas/school. After I finished school, can't get a decent mechanic job. What is this thing called, experience? Everyone seems to want it, but not allow me to get it. Lol

That's what it want to know! Lol I've read great stuff, I just wanted to see how well it was known on sfld. If it's suspension mods, it's been tried and tested on a track.

Yeah, 90% of uneven wear is from bad toe angles. Sliding the car around has also killed what was left of them. They've been on over a year, so I don't mind. I guess I'm just pointing my finger at camber, because it's the one thing I haven't really straitened out...... Well aside from the paint.

It needs to be aligned. Tires are wearing fairly even up front but rears are worn on the inside. Much of it has to do with me fucking around, but it does have 3-4 degrees camber in the rear. Insides are shot,(belts are showing) outsides are fairly decent looking with like 40% tread. I've...

Anybody use their stuff? I want to order done rx7 fc suspension parts from them because my rear suspension setup is gay. I'm tired if replacing rear tires. Too much rear camber. Well, I specifically want to know if anyone has used their two piece subframe bushing and camber links? Am I...

Thanks guys. I was searching through some archives in some other forums and read that uship.com was a good service. Apparently, you post an "auction" and freight carriers will bid on what shipping will cost. They use that uship.com to fill empty space on trucks already traveling to the same...

I'm in the process of trying to buy a swap from someone down in Texas. I'm looking up shipping quotes, and they are ridiculous for freight services. Has anyone ever shipped engines across the nation before? Would anyone in a business be willing to receive the delivery for me, and hand it over to...

You also need a strong, fully charged battery.

I am probably just going to go through the traditional replacement of the mount and a snubber. I don't have the time to do anything crazy with it right now. The 7 is my daily, so I can't have it out of service for long periods of time. I'm also starting a new job next week and I can't be fucking...

Yea, it's a couple years old, but for daily driving with mild sliding here and there shouldn't kill it. I'm starting to think the top diff bushings may need attention as well. I mean, they are from 1986. I've already got a list going for the 7. Manual rack Diff bushings, probably all 3...

Your right, it's not the mazdaspeed, I meant the stiffer mount from mazdatrix. I'm in Pembroke Pines, you?

I learned about that recently and have not done it yet. I'm going to get it done soon. I saw a DIY on the snubber and it looks fairly easy, so I may end up doing that as I wait to gather the parts I'm changing when the car goes down to replace all the bushings. The clunk in the rear end is just...

Ok, if you have an fc rx7, then you must know what a failure the diff mount is. I'm running on my third or fourth one and tired of dishing out a hundred dollars for a "mazdaspeed competition" replacement every time. Has anyone ever made one to replace the faulty one? I know people just weld up...

Get it signed off and go to court. Paying the ticket also admits guilt, and getting it dismissed will usually cost close to nothing. ALSO, getting signed off and going to the clerk doesn't do anything, they will just try and make you pay the ticket. You have to go to court. I almost flipped when...

If you don't remember when is the last time you got your battery, it might already be too long ago. Check if it has a date on it, if it's a couple years old, just get it checked out before you spend double the value of the battery on another starter, and then end up still having to buy a battery.
