its very easy to install a hidden fuel cut switch on the 2nd gen, IM me if u want to know how

 

actually, my friend who's also a mechanic at the local 76 knows everything about rx-7's (mostly 1st gens) and is willing to teach me how to make a switch and each and every possible spot to hide it.

 

yea, definately get some aftermarket struts and springs, imma have some eibach pro kits up for sale soon, let me know, im from around that area too.

 

ok it turned out to be a base model. i paid 1800 for it. the shifter really worries me because i sometimes accidently downshift to 1st. my mech tells me it's most likely just the shifter and not the tranny but it'd be a good idea to swap the tranny. the shocks are gone, the ride is uber-bumpy. all i can say is, this beats my 60hp CRX.

 

omg teh bob's.

 

YOu can put on the Miata Short throw..found on E-abay ..you still have to get the upper bushing though..and it may be a tight shift but can be fixed with a little ingenuity..like using the washers between the Top plate and the spacer to give the bushings a little more room so the shifter can Move and Pivot without being sandwiched from the Bushings having excess pressure exerted so that it Doesn't go Super tight..(do a search on forum..Miata short throw Write-up..it will explain all that you need to know..) I installed my Miata shortthrow and I like it..it's notchy but you know when you are in gear..Click,click..

 

ok i had the shifter boot removed and examined the plate underneath. everything was tight and good. could it be the shift linkage? the transmission feels fine.
