I can see the merit in the limitation, quite a few forums have gone the way of becoming a specialized e-bay or plain died

This site is the most restrictive car forum I've seen but probably weeds out 99% of nonsense

Check out the New Member section. Read through the FAQ section. Browse the site vendors/sponsors.
This should give you a good jumping off point to start your search.

^Second post in over 7 months. Now you have 10 and almost all of them using the opportunity to whine in some way about the minimum post count. On top of that apparently you don't even own a RX7...so can we assume you're here just to shop and act like an adolescent about rules?

If someone is looking to buy an RX7 or parts, then they should want to ask questions and partake in threads. These are old cars and everyone can learn something here, even the guys with 15 years and 12K posts are still learning. If you can't invest 10 posts in learning about your rare antique car, good luck rebuilding that Nikki carb! Without restrictions like this ANYONE can start an account and flood the forum with spams and malware. It's a nightmare for Mods (Admins?) to keep up with and fix - I've seen it on so many other forums.

If they were shill posts (one word posts or otherwise useless or off-topic posts) they could’ve been deleted

Working on 10 here too. My login from years ago is long gone, so had to start over. Curious to see what FD's are for sale in the marketplace

I've been lurking on this site forever but I am finally in a position where I can look for my first rotary. I think the rule is not even that excessive, it gives members the peace of mind that the website will theoretically have less scammers and bots who spam the site and ruin the community.

Well you can get your post count up while you ask questions about the car(s) you're interested in. I like first gens for example, and there are several mechanical changes from year to year. Similar with second gens, as far as brakes at least. Once you have 10 posts you can look at the classifieds.

^^^ And the Spam-Bot above is why we need a minimum post count before the new guys are allowed to mingle.

There was a long spam post here, which I was referring to.

What problem? Make the minimum post count or remember log-ins.

Do you have any questions about FD's, or do you know how to build and tune them already?
