Should I...

I found a 1990 RX7 N/A....

the good: New tires, AC, clean interior, Tokico blue suspension, Hayame muffler, air intake, body is decent, no major dents

The bad : Rough idle, motor runs but needs work.






Guy only wants $500 for it and I don't mind putting the wrench time in to fix the car up. Also if the engine is bad enough to where it needs a rebuild or a replacement approx. how much am I looking at? Thanks

BUY IT!! the rough idle is more than likely a timing issue or the TPS sensors...well worth the 500 georges...

Buyer's guides in FAQ, go from there. JDM engine is $1500 I think. A rough idle is usually a minor, fixable or ignorable problem.

You're still signed on? I guess you ran out and left everything on....

Sounds like a good deal, although I'd also change the bumper cover (don't like that non-port lights mod).
