Hey yall, im looking at getting a 93 FD for 10k. I was wondering if this would be a smart investment. So I would like to hear your opinions, pros and cons, and what not of the FD. How difficult is the rotary to work on, I personally dont know much about these motors but i think it would be fun to learn. Im pretty much just looking for a street and track beast. Any info would be much appreciated, thanks.

 

Lol!!!

 

Hey I know im a noob, and I really dont mind. How else is better to learn than askin guys who actually know about them.

 

read this, https://www.rx7club.com/3rd-generation-specific-1993-2002-16/faq-3rd-gen-other-useful-links-68640/, then ask questions

 

read faq and post pics if u want peoples opinions.....

 

Please read the FAQ thread before asking general questions....that's why it is there. Outside of freak transactions, you are not going to find a decent FD for anywhere near $10k....and then you have expensive and frequent maintenance.

 

If you don't know much about the rotary engine then read, read, read, and please read. You'll have to learn vital things before jumping right into a FD, espically one for 10k (as it's probably going to need some work). Just like all these kind gentlemen above me said, start with FAQ, then come back.

FYI, from a financial aspect almost every single car with 4 wheels is NOT an investment(other than some rare antiques).

They're actually really shitty investments

 

like they said ...read read read...i looked up $#!t for almost 2-3years....you need to know what your getting into....
good luck

Yeah, the best way to learn is having one but that's taking it the hard way. Make sure you know what your looking at and do crap loads of research. 10K sounds like a good deal if it's in good condition. If you see any major things wrong with the motor, just forget and keep looking.

 

lmao... somehow I knew exactly what this thread would say, even before I opened it.

 

compression test compression test compression test compression test.. trust me i learned the hard way

 

hope you have DEEEEEEP pockets

 

Got to love spring....it happens every year.

 

fd and investment will never go hand in hand unfortunately
