hey im new to this forum but yeah im in the process now of getting a 88 rx7 gtu it has 200 xxxx miles and umm the transmission is messed up and there no 5th gear umm and need new spark plug and it smokes when u start it sometimes... other then that a few cosmetic and it should be fine ... **** for 600 bucks i think that a really good deal but yeah the question is what should i do first to this car after i get those things fixed?

 

start with exhaust and intake i suggest racing beat for the exhaust

 

I suggest a rebuild/new motor!

 

when u say rebuild no motor what exctaly does that consist of making every thing in the motor completly new

 

What, you never heard of rebuilding a motor?

What happens is you ship your motor off to some company that specializes in rotary engines (use atkins rotary, they do nice work) and they replace all of the seals, springs, o-rings, apex seals, all that good stuff. Making the motor in essence brand new again.

Thats the expensive way, the cheaper way is to order a J-SPEC engine, usually about a grand. But hey, you get what you pay for....

 

I suggest you get everything working properly, and READ up on everything. The FAQ is a great place to start.

[edit] Okay so you said AFTER those. Intake, exhaust, and suspension are good places to start.
