I'd also ask them to give you compression numbers since the engine has 93k could be a hit or miss, my original engine lasted 150k, but that's not always the case..

Does not seem bad. Make sure the compression numbers are legit. The link NeedFD provided is an invaluable source of information. It has links to information on buying a 3rd gen RX-7 in there as well.

I'd like to know what "chossing an FD" means? Are you Brittish, or maybe Australian? Neither of which speak proper English.

chossing is like tossing, hence flipping a coin to decide aka "choose"
