I'll daily it, as well as the occasional rallycross. I've never owned an RX-7, but it seems hard to go wrong for $1700.

Not for the that price to many miles without knowing the history of the motor, I would take it someone and have a compression test done on it.

I imagine the motor's never been rebuilt, but it seems pretty cheap to rebuild them, and I have the ability.

Patience Jake, more where that came from. Take some time to learn the ins-and-outs and what to look for, then check in here again.
