you have any idea what kind of wheels those are?

 

they are either watanabe RS or a knockoff.

 

they are Konigs

 

konig rewinds i think.

 

ill check it out

 

man those konig rewinds must be old! my friend just got some for his 240z and they have a crome lip, so yeah, those are old haha but still legit

 

yah,right now i've been looking around craigslist for a new-ish set of tires for them because the tires on it now are totally bald,
found some 205/70/14 for $65

 

just buy some brand new ones... mounted and balanced 14's should only be $100 a pair for 205's... that set for $65 is going to cost you another $10 a piece for mounting and balancing give or take, unless those are 95+% tread offer them like $40-50

 

i'll see if they even have them left

 

how are konig rewinds old? how is konig legit?

 

hey,look at it this way,at least they look good on the car

 

They do.

Konig makes some really great lookin wheels.

Heliums for instance and the 3 spoke whatevers that look like advans or harts......


Like your car man. What is it with 15 year old kids with rx7's?

Do not drive like a tard.

Worry about basic maint and practical upgrades for right now. LEARN YOUR MOTOR INSIDE AND OUT. Read the factory service manual, buy a haynes and chilton, buy your OWN TOOLS and a DAMN GOOD SET of tools to work on it. Read as much as you can on this forum.

I wouldn't worry too much about making alot of power. Seriously. I've dumped alot of time and cash into my car and i dont plan on going forced induction any time soon. Personally, i'd rather have it look good, handle good and run good above all. At this time i could care less about more power, especially since it's my dd and rotary mileage is worse than a 4.6L v8 suv a wot.

You've got a great starter. I wouldn't worry about a 5 lug conversion just yet. Start saving money. Do your basic maint and then worry about upgrades when you have a good 'nest egg'.

Dont be a tard like every other 15 year old with a "tuner car" that thinks they have to be the baddest kid on the block blowing money on bs and then crying when their car doesn't run or start anymore..... I've seen it happen ALOT. Dont be that guy.

 

talking about not starting anymore,my car wouldnt start yesterday so i pulled the plugs...talk about over flooded.I let them set out for a while and the car started right up.My brother took it out for a spin and came back and it idled at 1.5k,down from 2k,and it didnt sound like the tps was bad until the revs dropped to 1k and started bouncing from 8-9k to 1.1-1.2k,but still it has made a improvement.Now it just needs to be drived

 

well rewinds arent that old but those are an older pair seeing that id doesn't have alot of lip and the ones on the market now do. and konigs are legit, they may not be the best but better than some generic brand from les right?

 

having a problem,i start it up and it sits and idles at about 1500 rpm and seems to slowly rise up to 1700rpm or above...I am probably gonna replace the TPS soon

 

i just learned yesterday that the tps being bad does not affect the driving of the car...just the idle

 

oh yah and i am going to the junkyard hopefully today and getting some parts

 

what parts are you looking for?

 

i was hoping to find a tps sensor that is not so corroded,and some misc interior and exterior pieces
