rx7 - 3k rpm stutter
 

Hi guys,
was on the motorway yestarday and the rx stopped boosting.
wont even go to 3k rpm just stutters im thinking sparkplugs, or wastegate stuck closed?
p.s checked oil and fluids all fine.

also idles under 1k now previously would rev upto 2k then lower down.
recently got an alarm fitted yestarday, could he have knocked something off when taking the dash out?


anyone got any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

happened to me before. Ratsnest, one of the valves is fucked

but I wouldnt doubt the possibility that it could be related to the alarm installation

I got this car from a dealer less than 1 month ago! im really really hoping its nothing that serious or hes taking the thing back!!

Basicly it was working and boosting fine, then come off the motorway from 70mph to 30mph just nothing depressing as hell! not many companys around here work on rotary engines sadley

Ok had a look under the hood, a vac pipe had snapped iv reattached it but white smokes basicly pissing out the exhaust uploading a youtube video and picture.

Hi guys,
just an update for you all. Got nowhere the seller of the car wasnt interested said i had raced the car etc etc trading standards didnt give a shit so! 2JZ-Gte conversion going in going to make it a long project and take my time with it.

White smoke could be bad turbos throwing oil into the motor.why would you want to swap out the engine.

Grinding noise coming from the center of the engine, been told it could be a number of things and rough idea of £3,000 to repair it. I simply dont have that kind of money to spend fixing a car every 1-2 year. Also there are no companys where i live for 500+miles that work on rotary engines. so the Piston engine will in the long run be more reliable and easier to fix.
