I am probably soon purchasing a 93 Rx7 and i was wondering some few simple questions like, what do you guys recomend oil type wise, oil filter wise etc for a 95,000 car... ? Also what upgraded turbo kit do you guys recomend for mostly street driving ? Cause i really dont want to just rebuild them id rather go with something new with a little more power ? Any input i would appriciate alot!

read the stickies. 10w30. any kind will do. any oil filter will do. GT35R turbo kit.

 

the engine is close to a goner at those miles if it is stock.
if you buy a big-*** expensive turbo, and it shoots the old apex seals through it then your turbo will be a goner too. you'd be best to tear it down before putting your turbo on it while many internal parts are salvagable for the rebuild.

 

Wow, that's pretty cool. 5 years later and they same questions keep popping up

Welcome to...hmmm...something.

 

If you buy...Welcome to the club!

Most of what you asked can be answered in the stickies (top of this forum). Spend some time reading and you will get most of your answers.

If you cannot find what you need, then use "search this forum". Just type in some key words and see what pops up.

As far as a turbo upgrade, you may want to back track a little bit. If that motor is the original stock motor with 95,000 miles, you may want to hold off on a turbo upgrade. I think a wise move would be to start saving some money for a motor rebuild.

If this is not the original motor and it has low miles, then you may want to look at some "reliability mods". Again, this can all be found in the stickies.

Again, welcome to the money pit (I mean RX-7 club).
