Do Rx7's come with 02 sensors?

you mean the burning oil smell? =)
rotary engines are supposed to burn some oil.
yours may be burning more than its supposed to.
i suppose you could check your oil metering pump to see if the return spring is strong enough to bring it back to fully closed.
if you have open exhaust, that might be all there is to it. rotary's are pretty stinky once you get rid of the emissions control devices. at least, thats been my experience.
you may just need to tune your carb a little better. if you see black-ish smoke in your exhaust, it is usually an indication of an excessively rich fuel mixture, which will contribute to lowered fuel economy and stinky exhaust.
blue smoke = oil,
black smoke = gas,
white smoke = water.
