The auto Rx-7s are'nt realy know for there speed. More like a nice comuter car. To be honest, i would'nt mind having a wrecked 86-91 auto car. You see....my fiancee who is a rural carrier, has a old mail jeep. My boss/soon to be father in law and I, did all the body work, and painted it this semi-metalic blue, then we put two white shelby stripes right down the center. The stripes are actually the same distance/width as a 1967 AC cobras stripes are. She drives it around for the Wilsonville Oregon post office.

But anyways, i wanted to get rid of the problematic 4cy out of it, and stick a 86+ motor into it, along with the tranny, stock wiring/ecu etc...so not only would she have the best looking mail jeep in Wilsonville, but the fastest! That would be pretty cool.....put a header on it, with custom exuast, intake, port the manifold, H-I6..... Ok...now i'm getting ahead of myself....sorry for rambling. CJ

Hmmmm... most bicycles, skateboards, and scooters on the top end, but they might get you off the line. A few mopeds and older Honda Civics if they are stock and in need of a tuneup. Some Geo Metros.

That's about it. Ditch the auto and get a car with a 5-speed. Auto cars are mid-to-high-18-second cars IIRC.
