what the hell kind of thread is....you cant make your own damn desision, do a search, noob...
jjoking. inside joke...
i would buy the car....used FD with a rebuild is the way to do it. Unless of course u can buy a very VERY low mileage car. Thats what i did and my car has had zero problems after it has been tracked and brought to the strip numerous times. The car can be reliable if the owner knows its limits and took care of it from day one. Thats my experience atleast.

Probably never, I bought an open intake, since I was having those overheating probs. Wanted to open the engine bay up some to give the rad more room to vent air. Gonna get a smaller battery too. Just bought a PFC, so i can monitor my temps correctly now.

Str8Down <-- exactly! No offence, but i wouldn't trust anyone on something like this either!!!
In my opinion, it looks like GIBENSTEIN came across a good deal EVEN IF he needs to replace the motor!

Never the less to say low mileage means jack **** is alittle harsh. Usually you could tell if the car was taken car of. MY car was 15k miles...you would think it was 0 miles and smelled new. Like i said zero problems....with 43k on her now and i beat the car like she wants to be beating. She drives better after she was beaten. Watch tomorrow she will break now.

hm...so far the buyer needs to know what he/she wants to do with the RX-7. everybody have different opinion when it comes to performance and how they want to do their RX-7.

Just to add. The warranty covers THE TURBO , MOTOR , AND TRANSMISSION TILL 2005 (September to be exact) which is awesome. I am still covered even after the fuel system upgrade. So it sounds great to me. Also "matty" did you recieve the PM I sent you ? Stock cobra times are mid 12's and since its mod'd it should be pushing low 12's or high 11's.

To all those who wanted the car it is up for sale in the For Sale section again due to the matter of our deal I wasnt able to pick it up as wanted. I sadly bought a Supra TT to repalce my woes.

Good buy. I think a fuel pump upgrade and some 850cc primaries will work but not sure. I don't know about tuning it on a brand new motor, I will run it the way it is till break in is done then I go get it tuned.
I will kill for a deal like that. That car got everything on my shopping list, so I guess I have to change it so I don't copy it. Nice car!!!
