my family recently owned an FD, anyways im 18 and looking for an FC and this to me seems like a really good deal.


88 RX-7 TURBO 2 5spd. With 69+K Adult miles
A rare unmolested car with new Perelli's P6000 all round.
Same owner for the last 18 years .Clutch Replaced at 60K.
The car needs to be driven more for the wife has only driven the car in the summer months for the last six years.
Oil and filter changed every 2000 miles with out fail.
Comes with moon roof. Alarm, cloth int. power windows and locks,16 in alloys, p steering , p mirrors,Limited slip diff.
High flow Walbro fuel pump installed a couple of months ago, New spark plugs, Injection system cleaned.

He is asking $4000. i was sent many more pictures of all angles of the car. perfectly clean. what do you think?

I would, that's about the cleanest stock unmolested s4 turbo ive seen. For 4000, thats a good price for me, I would buy that

Assuming compression is good, that sounds good to me.

Of course see if the will take 3,500 if not buy it for 4,000. Good advice chwkrx7.

if i was to go see it, what would the major things to check be? how would i do so? obviously by looks alone its in great shape but what kinds of tests can i do?

chwkrx7

basically it looks good, runs good. all you have to do to make sure is check compression. if that's good.. which it should be, then by all means buy that thing!

compression testers can be expensive, quick and easy way to check is to pull the plugs, disable the ignition system, crank it over and listen to the pulses while cranking. they should be strong and even. obviously this isn't as bulletproof as a real compression test, but if you know your way around rotaries you will know what it should sound like. if you're new to them, take someone along who's done it before

alright well ill have to see if i can get the money together. in the mean time, how does this car stack up against other cars on the market in terms of condition and price?

Rx-7fetish

Ask how much for the mustang in the background lol, thats a pretty good price, think about what cars from 20 years ago are normaly selling for, Rx-7's hold there value decently.

dawicka2

no, compression testers are not expensive. I think mine was like 17 dollars or something from advance. pop out the egi fuse, Pull one of the plugs on the rear housing, insert the tester. Have a buddy crank the car over with the padal floored. you are looking for 3 even 100psi or so pulses. Do the same on the front housing after putting the plug back in the rear. Put egi fuse back in and front housing plug. Hopefully you are good. I would not buy the car without doing this.

Its a pretty good deal. Definately worth it.

rx-7 obsessed

wow jump on that car. who cares if u have to go get a lone for that thing. that is one hell of a clean car and 4 grand (ask 3.5) would be stealing that thing. that is cheap for the shape its in. i have seen guys ask alot more for cars that where alot worse!
