Seeking Rx7/rotary Magazine To Subscribe To !

Hey every1,
I recently got my first car. And it's what I always wanted. A 3rd gen 1993 RX-7 Montego Blue. I know a lot about this car, but would like to know more. I am wondering if any1 knows any RX7 or Rotary Magazine thats out on the newstands I can subscibe to. Let me know ASAP.

btw... MY RX7 is so beastly. My engine isn't even broken in! Its a brand new rotary engine on a 93 RX7 with new montego blue paint job, new leather interior, and carbon fiber dash. I am currently saving for it of course.

Mods to do:
1. Intercooler by GReddy or HKS
2. BOV by HKS
3. Exhaust by who knows (give me ideas and links)
4. 19" Rims (also give me some input)
5. Body kit (also give me some input)
6. Super Stereo system - (2 - 10" Kicker L7's powered by 2 - JBL 1200.1 w/ a kenwood headunit and stock bose speakers)
7. give me ideas
8. " " "
9. " " "

Aiight lates every1 ... REMEMBER I NEED MAGAZINES !!!!!

I...I can't...hold...back...no....can't.......do it....

Seriously, read the "newbie" stickie at the top of the list, and read thoroughly through both sites (Ciriani's especially). Then use the search function liberally in your quest for info. Suggest you read carefully before rushing to mod your FD. The wrong mods at the wrong time will have you breaking in another motor faster than you can say "noob".

Yup like Kento said....all of you questions can be answered by searching this forum.

The south forum and specifically the DFW group are pretty large....also you are lucky as there are alot of GREAT RX7 shops close by...ie Gotham, Marvel, RP...

you should come out to some of our meets and we can help you out with your wish list...(just check out the south forum for details...futher down on the main page)

congrats on the car!!

w/e guys ... I will get critizism for the slow and cheap car I have. Plano is like so spoiled I was lucky to get this. All my friends drive 03 M3's and SLK's and tons of 330ci. I know mine is faster then some ... but i would so get a 330ci over a rx7. Just cause its a beemer and its new. BUT .... I STILL NEED ADVICE ON WHAT MY FIRST 4 or 5 mods should be.

If you can read Japanese (especially Kanji) I know several magazines you can buy but I think it would be very difficult to subscribe to them. Forget the super stereo system, 19" rims, and gawdy body kit, just my advice.

maybe he doesnt grasp exactly how fast 100mph is--you dont weave through traffic at those speeds, you kill people at those speeds. For the sake of others, yourself, and your new FD, if you want to hit those speeds, do it on the track. Even deserted freeway is dangerous. 120mph should never be hit in a place where you need to weave in and out of traffic. are you just insane?!?!

honostly ... you haven't been to north texas. There is this high named after our gay *** president that no cops are allowed on it except state troopers every 10-15 miles. Its a tollway and its 6 lanes wide and the speed limit is 80. Honostly I haven't done it at those speeds but I have done it around 90 in my dad's carrera. And of course its not goign to be during traffic and day light ... going to be like 3 am runs. Honostly I am not that stupid. BTW .... north texas is the street race capital of the world.
George Bush Tollway is over 45 miles long and has over 7 points where its straight 6 lane highway more than a mile long. north texas cops cant touch us because we are on a tollway ... they have to report to the state troopers.... but by that time ... we are gone

BTW ... i know how fast I can handle ... my brother has a 240sx 98' with the skyline twin turbo rgb88tt in it... he's running low 11's at the track. And dont worry ... Ive been driving since i was 13. I learned to drive on a 600hp supercharged 98 SS camaro running 4.1 -- 0-60's and 10.23 1/4.... North texas is all about this ****. Cops cant do anything about it cause if they cant catch us nothing happens. But we screwed when they do cause they have changed the misdameaners in the state due to north texas

rgb88tt low 11's? 4.1 0-60 and 10.23 1/4 mile with a 600hp camaro? LOL . Man where do you come up with this stuff. #1 going over 100mph your probably going to get a felony, #2 19's and even 18s are going to greatly impair your handling ability and make it much more difficult if not impossible to launch, Mazda put 16s on it for a reason. #3 600rwhp RX-7 would be doing pretty darn well running a 10.23 1/4 mile, good luck with that extra 1000lbs in the camaro. What a joke.
