83 rx7 no wiper operation and tranny shimmy

i have a 1983 rx7 limited edition and the winsheild wipers don't work. the motor itself is ok b/c i tested it and the connectors. is there a common problem that i could look for that might narrow my search? where could i find a wiring diagram for it.

it doesn't have a rear wiper on it and i was wondering if that was something that was an option to have or not?

it has a 5 speed tranny in it. with it in neutral and the clutch pedal up the tranny shimmy's a little and increases when you bring the engine up to higher rpm's. is that normal of was the clutch installed wrong? the kid that had it before me put a stage 2 clutch in it. i also noticed that it like to have higher rpm's to take off smooth in first but doesn't mind much in other gears. is that something normal or does that have something to do with the clutch? any help would be great. thanks.

you may wanna put this in the first gen specific forum instead of the second gen specific.

although the clutch thing sounds like maybe you got a lighter flywheel installed.

Relay #3 probably bad in your wiper switch. Part number Omron G6C-2114P-US


Doing a quick search would yield more results than you care to read about the problem.

Here's a link.
