Talking Looks like im getting another RX7

Well looks like im about to get my hands on another FC. Im really happy about it. Iv had one before and the motor ran like a top. But the sec day I owned it the drive shaft broke. Then when I took it all apart I found out that the U joints are non replacable. I found a good used shaft for 50.00 bucks from a guy off this bourd. When I went to pick it up he gave me 3 shafts and we talked to a few hours. Thats when I seen that RX7 guys are a diffrent type. Well I went home and threw in the new shaft. I drove the 7 for a few months then seen that I had bubbles in me coolient system and with out alot of money I had to et rid of it.


Well now iv owned a few more cars but none felt like that FC. I want another one, So now im talking to a guy and hopfully I will be picking up another FC thats not in as good of shape later tonight or in the morning.

So this new car has a salvaged title. It was a flood recovery and 2 years ago he got it and put a new motor in it from rotary performance. Its a 90 so its a S5 and its a hard top car. It needs alitle body work but is pretty strat. It is all stock minse a Top Speed Catback. I really cant wait to get ahold of this car. Im still broke but I want a 7 again so I hope here we go.

Great so I went and picked up this rx7 this morning. I did all the test, I looked for bubbles in the rad, I had him hold it at 4K for 30sec and let off. No smoke. I drive it home and it runs great. But I just reved it to 8K one time, It gave a huge cloud of white smoke and now this is how its smoking, Please watch the vid and tell me whats wrong with it? I know it needs a TPS, I care about the smoke tho right now.
