Now or later?
 

I just bought a 93 mazda rx7 with a blown motor. In the fall im going to go off into college. I wanted some advice on wether i should buy a rebuilt engine now and install it or save the money and pay for college (less loans) and then buy the engine when i get out of college. I'll store my baby (my rx7) when im off to college. Well what i was worried about is that if i decided that i buy the engine when i come back from college, that the price for a rotary engine will sky rocket. In other words, the engine will cost a lot more then then now. Yes it happened to me before, in 1999 a b18c (gsr motor) engine cost about nomore then 1500, now it runs about well over 3 thousand dollars. Oh if your wondering... if you need the money for college, why did you buy a rx7 now? Well i bought it now becuase i got a REALLY, good deal on the car and i couldnt let that deal fly by. Well any advice will help, thanks.

I think your best bet would be to get a shop manual, and spend the idle time rebuilding the blown engine in your current car.

You kill two birds with one stone --> learning and the engine. Plus you can go at your own pace.

Board is seriously acting up lately.

haha... yeah i can do that. I like the way you think clayne. Hopefully i'll do it right and it'll start in the first 5 tries. Do you know of any good books or sites on how to repair your own rotary motor?
