need help finding a members car build.
i've got a friend here in missouri who is a die hard chevy guy. he sent me a random message asking for specs on a 2.3t. after i answered them, i asked why he was interested. he sent me a craigslist add for a project car that he's thinking about buying... an 82 mazda rx7. i thought to myself, "hey, i know of someone who did one of those with a 2.3t."... but i can't remember who. i'm pretty sure it was someone off this forum. if you know of the car and know who owns it or can send me a link to the build thread, i'd appreciate it.

I don't remember an RX-7 off from this board but that doesn't mean I missed it. Power2weight has a Miata that has the 2.3T in it. Myabe yopu are thinking about TF. I seem to remember a Mazda or two on there that had the conversion. You might check in their Proven Formulas thread.
Is it Springtime/Tornado Season in KC yet? I miss those little dust devils.

There is no need to refer to it in the past tense, yet.....
Josh I never did a build thread, I probably will do one for the Volvo head swap, but too many parts on these cars work with the H/A crowd and I don't want that kind of attention.
