I would say if it's original engine and turbos, it's highly likely you'll be needing a rebuild. Start planning for it, it could be any day,especially if you drive aggresive.

Wow - so your 'interesting' question is the one that is asked probably more often than any other question in the history of this forum.

Perhaps you should search the next time you have a question.

Check FAQ:

https://www.rx7club.com/3rd-generation-specific-1993-2002-16/faq-3rd-gen-other-useful-links-68640/

where it says "24) When does an engine need to be rebuilt? I heard FD engines only last 60k, is this true?".
