INFO. on my new RX-7's

Ok i got some more info on these RX-7's i bought.


1987 RX-7

Needs- Catalytic Converter for the Exsust
And a new Fuel Cell. But RX-7's dont have fuel cells.

1986 RX-7

Needs- A new APex Seal

Im Thinking of just switching the converters arould and see how that works.

I have a list of items i want to put on the 87. Let me know if its worth it or not.

Turbo (thinking about it but turbo seems to decrease the life of the car.)

Cold Air Intake.

Sport Exhaust system

Lower Suspention.

Im looking for stronger Brakes too.

Thats it for now for the performance.

Flashy **** now.

-Enkei 17 in. Fronts and 18in Backs.

-Erbuni Kit #11 Nicest one i found. I havent found two many Kits for it if anyone knows anywhere i could find one on the net feel free to contribute your Knowledge.

-Im looking for a good elecrontic system. Something i can rout all my gages to my Flip Out headunit.

-Short Shifter.

-Maybe but not sure. My brother is into this like flame exhaust thing. I dont know the details about it but he said if i let him he'd but it in. It spits fire out the exhaust or something i dont know im not into **** like that but whatever.

You're lucky you posted this late. I hope your skin's made out of asbestos, cause you're going to get flamed like all hell tomorrow.

Any turbo will decrease the life of any car. Ever wonder why Turbo 7's as along with any other turbo car tend to go earlier than NA's?

You can do a T2 4 piston front brake conversion. Cheap provides plenty of stopping power

Please dont do this, its illegal and its just downright stupid in my opinon, dont worry, youll get flames without doing this, especially if you get rid of your cat. Rx7's naturally tend to naturally spit flames from time to time. But doing it with a flame kit is just flaming IMO

he put it nicer than i would have, but he has good advice. and before i did ANYTHING i would go and get the haynes manual and the FSM and study both untill you have a good idea of how the car and rotaries work.

Definitely get a Haynes Manual, A factory service manual would definitly benifit you as well.
if that compliment was for me, than thank you very much -alex
