how bad is overheating? always use an OEM thermostat..

you may want to try this in the 1st gen section.. 2nd generation rx7s are 86 and up..

Ok well you need to go to the first gen section as they will be able to help better. this is the second gen section.

1st gen is going to overheat for the same reasons as a 2nd gen.
