got a 94 rx-7 atkins rotary streetport 1 piece 3mm apexi seals. greddy t-78 haltech e6k.ect.
bought the car about 1 year ago just after the guy rebuilt the hole car. motor bodykit rims computer ect.
well going to work last week got on the interstate ran threw 3rd ran great but got off interstate and the car just died. started back up but sounded weard hard to start got to work checked everything map sensor relays all sensors check out on the laptop as ok.
so after work went to go home started the car still sounded funny.
got about half way and it just started losing power and not wanting to stay running without about 25% throttle till finally it died. could not restart. got towed home. so replaced sparkplugs checked sparkplug wires and 3 out of 4 were barely firing. replaced and car still wont start so did compression test on the rear rotor was 110 30 110 front would not even move the gauge so i did the trailing to make sure i was dong it right . got a big fat 0 again.
i have only put about 5000 or 6000 in the year i have had the car and the guy i bought it from barley put 3000 on it.
car has never ran hot.
any help would be great

thanks

It's possible that the ECU isn't tuned or tuned properly. While 8 PSI isn't a lot for what the turbo can do, it's probably enough to cause a problem is there are any issues with the ECU programming.

You'll have to start with the basics:

1. Verify the engine is toast (that part sounds done with the compression test)
2. Pull the motor and see what's damaged (i.e. did any seals exit the engine). If you have the time, I would open the motor myself to see if there is anything glaringly wrong before sending it out for a rebuild.
3. Once you have a good motor, make sure your fuel system is ok (check injectors, filter, regulator and pump to make sure they are all working properly)
4. Check ignition (make sure you aren't getting any break-up and all components are working)
5. Have someone tune it who knows how to tune a Haltech and a rotary (Rotary Performance in Texas might be able to help with this and really everything above).

Basically, you have to start from scratch right now and make sure you take the proper precautions to ensure a good R&R the next time around (first time around for you).

Who did you get the car from? Was it David Lieberman? He was the only guy in Alabama with a CYM paint.
