Yep, the top is the low coolant sensor, although I don't know what the other is - likely smog something or other. The one for the gauge as you asked is by the oil pressure sensor on the rear iron. It has either a single spade or single bullet connector (they changed it at some point, although I don't recall when). Halfway up on the gauge sounds a little high, but it's an old gauge with old wires so it's probably drifted a bit over time. If you're concerned just put a infrared thermometer on it quick after a drive, that's what I used to do anyhow.
Interesting enough, I've found yet another coolant sensor, this time on the lower driver side corner. I discovered it when organizing some parts today. Here's a couple photos.
While I have far less exposure to rotary vehicles than probably all of you, in my limited experience I have not seen this. Perhaps it's common, perhaps not, I don't know. It looks similar to the one in the t-stat housing but is a slightly different design. Curious if anyone else has seen it before.
And sorry to keep dragging this on; curiosity killed the cat I suppose...

Coochas PM me if you ever want to sell!
Hi Coochas,
My first car was a 1980 rx7 anniversary x edition just like this! I have been having a hard time finding one in good shape. I am in the market for one and would love it if you contacted me if you ever wanted to sell yours. If anyone else in this thread knows of someone selling a solid one let me know please I'm not looking for a project, I'd like one in great shape like this one.
Cheers!
Luke

I 100% understand, but It doesn't hurt to try and pry on a heartstring with an old photo of me and my old car! haha. If you change your mind I am itching to get another one as my weekend driver.
Thanks,
Luke Anker
