Found this in the news paper. Is that a jet engine or some type or race car engine ??? Someone has to call about this one.

Jun 11, 2005
1993 MAZDA RX7: F-1 engine, one of a kind, $13,000. Call 864- 473-1118

thats pretty cheap for a FD... especially if it has an "F-1" engine maybe a 3 rotor 13g? i highly doubt it tho

on the rx7:

78k miles original engine

plugs keep fouling... engine sounds like its about to go to me

also he says someone in cali offered him 18 for it and a "teenager offered him 16 for it in sc" but he doesnt want to sell to a teenager because he "knows how they are" lol

wonder if its that black FD we saw on the way to little man's back in the day. looks like an inman #.

Cosby
06-17-2005, 11:52 PM
it is inman but it's out back from what he told me

Talon4x4
06-17-2005, 11:57 PM
why edit again? isnt the 13g the 3 rotor? i was just thinkin that cuz he said f-1.. i thought thats what they had for there 3 rotor formula car...?

rxtasy
06-18-2005, 12:17 AM
20B=3 rotor

Talon4x4
06-18-2005, 12:23 AM
yea but isnt the 13g the F-1 car engine?

see! i knew it... its in one of my fathers british car magazines along w/ talks about the FC being started and the ending of the FB... my father is a jaguar nut...

Talon4x4
06-18-2005, 12:37 AM
i guess it got turned into the 20b tho since it seems the 13g was mostly a prototype...

rxtasy
06-18-2005, 12:40 AM
the guy with the FD might mean it has a Formula 1 engine in it. either way, 13k is still cheap.

Talon4x4
06-18-2005, 12:47 AM
unless like osborne said its about to BLOW! then its worth more like 6-8k ive seen alot w/o engines go on the v8 conversion site i post on go for 4000-6000 w/ blown or no engine... they dont usually last long everyone post if they see one for sale to grab...

Cosby
06-18-2005, 12:52 AM
It's a stock engine

Talon4x4
06-18-2005, 12:54 AM
yea... he prolly meant R-1

rxtasy
06-18-2005, 12:59 AM
yeah, that makes more sense. i wouldn't mind having an fd to put my engine in, but insurance would break me.

Talon4x4
06-18-2005, 01:05 AM
i dont see how u guys say insurance will break you!? every car i have gotten has been the same price... 95 talon, 69 jaguar, 68 camaro, 86 fc, 95 Z28, 92 caprice... all the same the insurance lady told me it'd be the same if i drove a ferrari.... btw i dont get full coverage... except on the 68 camaro and 69 both grundy tho... extremly cheap

91lx
06-18-2005, 01:48 AM
ya but who would sport minimum coverage on a ferrari unless its really a fiero :dunno:

rxtasy
06-18-2005, 06:17 AM
and not everybody has a good driving record either. who do u have insurance with? in my experience, it's always been more expensive to insure a sports car than a 4 door sedan. i had a friend that was going to give me an '83 gsl and the lady at statefarm said mine would double. i have a 6pt speeding ticket on my record + my 16 yr old is rated on my vehicle. since insurance on it has been cancelled since being totaled, i'm waiting to see how much it goes up on the '96 corsica since he'll be rated on it now. besides, if u got into a really bad accident and it was ur fault and the other was hurt bad, minimum coverage wouldn't even cover the hospital bill.

Talon4x4
06-18-2005, 09:07 AM
i dont have min. coverage... i said i dont have full coverage... i have enough for 3/150,000 for cars, and i think 3/200,000 for people... far from minimum but no collision which is the key ingredient for the variable in ur insurance... its pointless for me to get it because they wont give me near what i have into any of my cars... w/ the exception of grundy as those 2 cars were inspected and priced out because they are 25+ years and collector/classic... w/o the collision my insurance is 2600$ a year... i wouldnt call that cheap. i dont even have a near steady job and i pay for it but then again i dont pay utilities or rent... nor a car payment. my driving record isnt perfect either :( but it will be later this year as it will be 3 years since i have gotten in an accident and any tickets... knock on wood :)

Talon4x4

yeah i think statefarm is really screwing us over. i want to change companys but i want to wait til my record's clean.

Talon4x4
06-24-2005, 12:06 AM
ur lucky w/ 6 points like that... usually state farm will bump ur ass off... thats what they did 2 me w/ one 2 point accident that was under 3000$.... they suck

rxtasy
06-24-2005, 12:15 AM
even before that it seemed like almost every time it came due they were going up but when we'd ask why, no one knew anything.

06-24-2005, 12:46 AM
ive had at least 6pts on SF for about 3 yrs now... better B quiet so they dont hear that. 50'ish on civic varies and 30 on supercharged mustang.

Talon4x4
06-24-2005, 01:08 AM
in SC ur points go down every year... by 2.. from what ive experienced... u must get alot of tickets lol

91lx
06-24-2005, 01:50 AM
nope... you lose 1/2 your points per violation on the 1 year mark. thats why they are 2 pts, 4pts and 6pts. any ticket takes 2 yrs to come off... unless you do defensive driving or it gets dropped or reduced to 0 points. its all in the hand book :)

91lx
06-24-2005, 01:56 AM
on 7/11 i will be back to 4 :rolleyes:

rxtasy
06-24-2005, 07:25 AM
yeah, after the first year the ticket is reduced in points by half. that 6 pointer i got was a year old this month. the other 2 that's on my record (4pts ea.) will be off after next month. that 6 pointer put me at 8pts. according to the dmv site, i'm down to 5 right now. here's the link if anyone wants to check there's. driving record points and status (https://www.scdmvonline.com/DMVpublic/trans/DRecPoints.aspx)

SpartanTS
06-24-2005, 11:39 AM
See how many points you have on your SCDL (https://www.scdmvonline.com/DMVpublic/trans/DRecPoints.aspx)

I have 1 point against me.

Cosby
06-24-2005, 12:03 PM
man, state farm SUCKS... they are EXPENSIVE and they dropped me like 2 years after my last ticket. Then I changed with my updated BAD record and no safe driver discount and ended up saving money with allstate

Cosby
06-24-2005, 12:04 PM
p.s. no points :)

Talon4x4
06-24-2005, 11:59 PM
no more points for me but my shit is still outrageous
