Nice to know if I ever need to I can go to Antartica for some standard nuts and bolts or perhaps a cup of sugar.

I think you may be out of luck there too! Antartica is not a country nor is it owned by any country, so it uses neither metric nor imperial! :p

The only countries that are behind are Liberia, Burma, and of course, the USA.

Although the US Government is switching over, read more here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metric_Conversion_Act

I am going to get pictures to day boys

ha, thats true about the 323 non leaking problem, on a side note, do the tachs/speedo combp only come in white? i was hoping black. and on a side note, there was one festiva i was looking at that had a rx7 speedo and digital tach put in(1980's). any one confirm?

They're black, with either orange or white lettering.




Sorry that second one isn't tachometer, but that's the orange colour. You'll find the orange one on most if not all 1988-1989 models, and the white ones on 1990+ generally. However, as stated above, you won't find KPH Tach White in North America.

i think white guages are gross

So go buy an orange one then haha. I'm just answering your questions the best I can.

HAHA

I love posts like this...........

Its like walking into a hat store, and them saying "we only have two hats left, a blue one, and a red one".......And instead of saying oh ok, thanks anyway, you say " I think red hats are gross".......Kinda leaves the hat person going.... "ok......wtf?"

No offence.....Just struck me as funny

New Guy form canada saying hi(with Pics)

Something screwy with my last thread and not letting me add the pictures so any way...

and now with 50% less rust!


What the heck is this thing









p.s I hate red hats

[blitzbuggy]

to be clear, are we talking about white numbers on black back round as a whit faced gauge? if so i want that, i thought we were talking about ricer backround with blue numbers.

It heats up rather well for a small engine, in about 10 mins idling it was blowing warm air, it wasnt that cold here, it was about -9 but with the wind -19

[Darlo]

Mine doesnt blow warm air even when it is 5C.....My heater core had a leak, so I put stuff in it to plug the leak, but now it doesnt work very well at all!

If you'd just read my posts, you'd get all the answers you want.
