New from Toronto

Hey guys. I'm new here and thought I would say hello. Seems like a great community here. I was just recently given an automatic 89 rx7 and I am not sure what, if anything I will be doing with it. Has 166,XxX km on it, runs and has a solid body. Love the car, hate the auto!

Anyways, if there are any meets in Toronto I would love to come by and see some gorgeous rides. Peace.

Welcome and congrats on getting a manual.

Ladder rear end? Seems to be a hot rod thing: Rear Suspension And Chassis Tuning - Rod And Custom Magazine

Judging by the front bumper and black molding I'd say it's S4 so 88 or older. Look at the 10th digit of the VIN# and it will tell you what year it is. G is 1986 H is 1987 J is 1988 K is 1989.

Also did you mean to type LSD rear end instead of LAD... ? LSD stand for limited slip differential.
