Smoke out of the gear sifter
I have an 87 Rx 7 this is my first car and i know almost nothing about cars. I was reving the engion in my driveway and after i got to about 5500 rmp i could smell something berning, smoke was comeing out of the shifter. i turnd the car off. turned it back on and there was no smoke. Do you know what caused that and will bad things happen if i drive the car around????

Sounds like you have an exaust leak and you are missing your shifter insulation.
By the way... please be kind to your RX-7. If you treat it well, it will treat you well. Most of the time anyway...

Was there a smell to it?
It could be just that your lower shift boots are gone or are just smoldering once your tranny gets hot.

I am sure other people will have a better idea on whats up.

Wow you did not pull the boot off and fully inspect the car immediatly after and befor turning the car back on!
More then likely a bad exhaust leak from headers/mid pipe
