I used Aaron's write up like the Bible when I bought my 7. It gives me confidence that I did the right thing and I'm not waiting for the other show to drop.

7club should have a page that you're taken too when you first register with, and I'm not joking, stuff like:

HOW TO SEARCH (We understand that you think you're an individual, and no other car has ever been quit likes yours. But lets face it. You're not special, neither is your car, so search. )

The RX-7 buying guides

Common problems (even if you think yours is special, it really isn't, so look here)

What oil to use?

What's premixing? How do I use it?

Where's the oil filter?

How to: Not be a newbie.



^^^ All in good fun...but seriously...maybe we should try that...
