Looks Sharp!

Looks really nice man, is this your first one?

Nothing like the long drive to pick up the FD! Best road trip ever!

I'm not sure if you are aware, but all 1993-1995 RX7's are twin turbo. Not trying to be a dick, but just the way you typed it I wasn't sure if you were aware of that

anyway, nice car! keep it clean

Good luck with it man. Do lots of research through the archives on it. You will be thankful you did. Trust us. Before asking a question try searching the topic first to see if you can get your question answered. Welcome aboard and enjoy the car. OH and be careful.

hey guys, sorry it took so long to reply, it got so busy this weekend. anyways heres a few more better pics.









i like it alot, so much better then a 96 na eclipse lol, but yea the trip home was fun, car is in great condition, everythings stock, cept that i put a head unit so i can listen to cds, the engine was rebuilt for the seals already, cause he was gonna fix it all up for is wife but he had a baby, so he has to sell 1 of his 3 lol. and when he re did the engine he replaces the hoses with silicone hoses

anyways i picked it up for 15K, i think that was pretty good, for having 62K orginal miles

and yea goodbye money lol, my ins. went so high.... but o well, and the gas here for that is 2.60 a gallon ....

just to be safe, was there anything stock i should replace so nothing goes wrong?

thanks, mike

In addition, you should try and purchase a shop manual for the FD (hard to find but completely worth it). You can check http://www.scuderiaciriani.com/rx7/shop_manual.html for a .pdf version. If you read up on both the FAQ section and the shop manual, you will be a rotary guru in no time!

Modifications should come slowly but surely.

Plastic AST & downpipe would be a good start

Pettit AST and Hks down pipe with a Fluidyne Radiator and the FC fan switch mod would do a lot of good for starters. and yes as spirit rotary 7 said a shop manual.
