Hey everyone!

My name is James, I’ve been a member on sarotors for a few years now, but never really posted much at all. I recently bought a s2 rx7 for a project/weekender after not having a rotor in two years. Here are some pics...

I plan to respray it and do a few things in time, look forward to meeting you all at a club meet up one day.

Welcome to the forums :)
Unfortunately we arent actually a "club" any more so we dont have meetings.
However, we do organise some cruises every now and again :)
