SD Alright!, my name is Matt and I own a black 88' rx7, I'm new to the community.

There is no doubt in my mind that I love the RX7 series. I own a 1988 Mazda RX7 GXL, gray interior, black exterior, currently no engine-but plan on buying either a 13B-RE or just a TII 13BT, of course, its a 5speed too(ACT 6 puck clutch, TII trany), TII lsd, stock 5 lug, custom made exhaust (I think its called a dolphin or lobster tail), custom made gauge cluster, etc (sorry can't remember everything, just bought it for 1,500$ last month). That is my current love and project, working hard to buy the engine of my dreams. I have some recent pictures of the car (I'm not a computer wiz so please don't criticize).

~Just bought the car, but I'm not as new as you may think. I've done my research (2 1/2 yrs) and know what I'm getting into and have a buddy over here in Sioux Falls SD to help me out. I would like more friends and more "wisdom" from the rx7club because most of you guy's on here are well-known professionals. I hope that you guy's will welcome me to the crew.

Tell me what you think, and Thanks for looking

MK aka Snaple07

(I'm going to try to upload some pics, wish i could post more that 6)

Hey man, thanks for the reply. I have a FMIC ready to go (in my bedroom getting cleaned and polished). Just waiting to get some help from the previous owner and a couple of friends to help me out with the build. I need to borrow an engine hoist and a **** load of unknown hoses/v-belt. I'm also thinking on buying a Koyo aluminum radiator and then after that get some suspension work done. Going to be slammed with MAX Coilover Kit/XXR 002 5 lug 0 offset stretch tired rims with aditional parts as well.
