hey everyone just got my first rx7, picked it up in NC for 2000, its pretty clean, it was silver but the previous owner repainted it blue, has blu interior, is a 5spd and N/A, iv owned it for about a week and a half and already bout wheels, 17" icw with tires for 100 bux, i was wandering ima try to build it up with no turbo and was wandering wut mods everyone started with first,
neway hers the car when i bought it




and with my new wheels




o was wandering wut is the best exhaust for the money, i wana keep duels and have a deep tone

 

Very nice! Glad to see neu owners all the time!
Check and inspect everything to make sure it be in 100% condition.
Here is a short list:
Compression test
Cooling system check
Vacuum line tests and check
Oil lines and injectors check
Oil Cooler check
Fuel lines and injectors check
Fiddle around with things electrical
That's just some of the things I would go through with a new FC.

 

yea i been doin that, i had a prob with the headlights and i fixed that, and i found that my pass side power window is a lil slow but i looked around on the site and figured out i just need to grease the tracks and everything so thats next, but wut should my first performance mod be, im doin a full tune up i this weekend

 

first, you need to get rid of the jesus fish

ok, get a header.... id say it doesnt matter what kind, but then like twelve people are gonna tell you im an idiot and to get a racing beat....

go to racingbeat.com and check it out.... then after header get intake... then se the search button...

i suppose you could change ur clutch fan with an electric fan, its been proven to free up about 12 rwhp

 

Check the compression first. If its low, you could be facing a $3K rebuild soon. If you're determined to begin modding an N/A, then exhaust should be first. A good catback system like Racing Beat. Be forwarned...exhaust modded RX7 N/A's are loud. This wiil get you some increased power. After that, more HP becomes harder and more expensive. Make sure the suspension and tires are good.

 

hey very nice, i just bought my FC on monday it is an 87 gxl....its in the shop right now getting tuned tho :/

 

also pulleys and if you dont want P/S and A/C there are some real good ones for sell at Atkins rotary on ebay. The header and the rest of the exh should be first u will feel the dif and removing the airpump then the fan then a clutch and flywheel would be a good idea.

 

yea the jesus fish is goin soon, and the compression is pretty good, but neway, so with a header and full exhaust ill notice a big difference, if i did that would it be better to run a high flow cat,

 

do these things even have cats or wut, on racingbeat, it says presilencer and nuthin bout a cat

 

presilencer replaces the cat or you wan not get the presilencer and do a high flow cat
