What to buy?

I am searching for an rx7 93-96 body. Dont know if I should get the twin or single here in Okinawa they are easy to find with the twins but I want top end so the single would be better right? I am new to the rx7 family but I want to take a right hand drive to the states for me and my little girl to race. I have see a few here that hit 260k in 400 km and I have alway love the look. What is the widest tire you can put on the car front and rear. 245 and 265? Any major spot that I should look at common rust area etc well hope to find a white or red one soon Thanks for any help you can give me.

figure out what setup you wanna do, street or highway that will determine if you need to go single or not

single's got a lot of advantages but if you just want something with a little extra kick, you can do bolt ons on the stock twins.

If you're talking about bringing it back for off-street use only, you should be ok. It cannot be legally registered as a street car.

I suggest you check out the buyers guide links in the FAQ thread. (It's stickied at the top of this forum)

Arn't there any crazy japanease Rx-7 guys over in Japan you could ask about this stuff? I'm sure they could hook you up w/ a deal too seeing as how 7s are so much cheaper there.
