[20B_boy]

It was advertised on here but the for sales get removed after 3 months so its not about any more - carl did have pics of it though...

[travellinbob]

thanks for that, look foward to maybe checking them out.

You can\'t beat an RX3 coupe for the ultimate old school look, and performance...... :cool   I can\'t believe that Carl\'s car has not been picked up.

[20B_boy]

Still hunting for those apex seal spring bits?!

Love the \'3 btw, the pics in the link in your sig are excellent!

[travellinbob]

20-boy, have you seen carls rx3? do you remember how much he was asking for it?
 maybe i should stop being lazy and ring him.

[MikeLMR]

I think I can remember but best let Carl say really.

[travellinbob]

Yes still looking, just need the apex springs and a couple of the apex seal corner pieces for the next re-build... thanks to Carl I have all the bits for a brand-spanking new 10a stored away.  The current motor has only done just over 1500 miles so I am in no hurry, but when you need the parts that\'s when they are impossible to find, might as well start looking now.

Cheers re the 3, coming along good, still heaps more to be done yet...

hey re-10 i know that things are getting real hard to source 10a stuff these days. I have been hanging onto a 10a weber manifold for years just waiting to get myself a car to fit it to!

I know they\'re not rotarys ,but here are some pics of my old skoolers of the past 20 years or so.











This last one was taken on a road rally back in June. We\'d cleaned the first half to petrol, but unfortunately the second half had a load of whities, so we dropped a load of time as I tried to preserve my chassis rails and paintwork. Finished 18th out of 75 starters so wasnt too bad.

Got some engine mods in the pipeline over the winter in the hope of doing some sprints/hillclimbs next year.

Regards.

Hi Richard nice to hear from you again + see some old school cars being used properly :-)

[travellinbob]

hey wow, the green car ( i owuld call this a 323) looks great. Do you still own it? These photos are very cool and I for one do not give a monkies that they are not rotors.
  Please feel free to post more details. the early mazda 1300, 1400cc motors are good engines and a good friend of mine in oz used to rally(gravel sprint) an 818 with a worked 1400.
  thanks.
