Talking my 86 se!!!! awsome 1.3l

This is my first rx-7 and i love it!!!! it has 140,000 miles. How i got the car: i went to the junk yard with my friend to find some parts for his car and i saw the rx7 on the tow truck. i asked the guy why is he junking it? he said "the car was stollen and now it wont start" he said there giving him 80 dollars for it. I told him id double it. Bought the car called a rx7 mechanic from craigslist (peter) told me i needed a fully charged batter. bought the battery fired right up!!! changed the oil air filter and fuel filter but i think it needs some more work THINGS IVE DONE TO THE CAR: saved it from being junked kouki tail lights (best 150 bucks spent) oil change and service, new wheel bearrings, bought rims that didnt fit (dumb ***) diff converted to lsd diff, new radiator, new s5 altanator, duralast battery, crappy primer job was rusting so i sanded the rust off and put rustollium on it, cleand rat poop and the leaves out the car and engine bay and re-registerd the car. salvage just cause it was stollen dmv m****r f****s

tell me what you guys think!!!!!!!! sorry for the bad picks and horrible grammer.

almost forgot and a stock wing (not installed yet)

also a question i was getting a jump (before i had the new battery) and my friend put the jumper cables on wrong now my stero dosent work? what fuse do i need to replace????







friends 7 to the left mine to the right

congrats on saving the S4. lol
welcome to the forum and do your reliability tune ups soon.
change it to 5 lug and save up for a rebuild cuz you're gonna need it.

since it's been 2 months since you joined, i assume you've been reading up.
