Talking Need Help. Just Bought My 86 Rx_7. Having Problems!!!

Hey, i just bought my 86 rx-7, i was wondering if anyone knew what would be some good things to do to my seven from the start, so later on it wont be messing up. ex: injector size, spark plugs, etc. plus i was wondering what u thought of me buying a t2 transmission, theyre selling it to me for 50 bucks cuz its talking up space in my friends house, but it works good also, and would it fit on a non-turbo engine? thanks for u help.

How old are you? If this is your first car I'd say do all the maintenance stuff and enjoy the car as it is. Save up for a year or 2 and buy a T2 at that point. You'll be a better driver at that point and understand the car better as well.
