Dead fuel pump, how I loathe thee.
having things break on my (old) cars is becoming an almost monthly occurrence. Time to trade it all in for a 2009 Camry perhaps?
Thanks to Michael for the replacement pump, at least the coupe is now drivable again (just!)
orsomething.

As this year draws to a close I realize that I haven’t actually made any plans for the new year’s break, apart from catching up with some friends in the Waikato.
So with this is mind, and also the fact that the RX-7 is deserving of some good honest summer cruising; the gods know the amount of shit I went through just to get it road legal, and it’d be a huge waste just to leave it sitting, here’s my question – what’s the haps in your neck of the woods, and is there any room for a lone wanderer like me to swing past for a visit and a yarn? Name thy poison and I’ll do my best to provide it upon arrival.
I feel a roadtrip around the North Island beckoning. Have cool, will travel!
Just my luck that petrol's now $2.14 a litre for the good stuff...
It has been an interesting week. Recently the blue S21D-4 for sale relatively locally took a massive drop in price. It was then bought by some decent sounding chap who lives on the other island of this tiny country. This meant it was no longer available for me to some-how get and then decide which one of the two I wanted to complete. That said, at least it’s going somewhere and likely getting sorted instead of sitting in an old mental asylum.
Then this morning I was browsing the ever wonderful JNC forums and stumbled upon this;
1960 Prince Skyline ALSIE-1
Yep. New/Recent pictures of a recent purchase of one of only 600 Prince Skylines exported to the United States. There are survivors! So cool. (literally, look at that snow!) It really does appear to be in fairly decent condition too…
