Hello i just bought a 3rd gen Rx-7 a nice black one i am woundering what is the first thing i should do to the ENGINE
thanks Jesse

 

Downpipe. AST.

 

Get all the fluids and filters changed.

Check all the hoses for cracks and replace as necessary.

 

and dp, ast, all aluminum radiator (fluidyne, koyo, etc.)

 

yeah, what they said!!

 

maybe you can tell us more, how many miles, if it's completely stock, etc.

 

thanks well i got about 30,000 miles on it
all hoses are checks
umm i got a AEM air intake filter and the car is stock other than that

 

can any of you send me to canadain sites where i can purchase some of these parts
or if you got any sites thata re close to canada thanks

 

a downpipe, AST, and silicon hoses.........are a MUST HAVE on ANY FD

 

you can just go down the list

are those canadains price or what

 

boost guage

 

i am sorta new at this but if you had 5 or 6 thousand are those parts cheap should i get them to install it?

 

i'm not saying you have to go to them, just on that page they have the basic reliability mods (dp, ast, boost guage, etc.) so you can get an idea of what you should do.

 

there's not really any shops in canada that carry FD stuff, u can usually find your typical/genaric things, ie: boost controller, tt, gauges, maybe exhuast components, at your local speed shop, but for more FD specific, like an ast or whatever your gonna have to deal across the border, or find something used...

happy hunting
