Smile Best regards from Argentina. I´m back in the forum

Good afternoon. After years I have re-entered the forum. Or rather, to post a comment or question.
My name is René, I am from Buenos Aires, owner of a Mazda RX7 1980 SA22C. A couple of years ago she has been sitting still in the garage.
Getting spare parts has become very expensive. The current government put extra taxes on purchases abroad. We must pay 35% of "solidarity tax" and also another tax of more than 30%. That is, with lower salaries than in the USA we pay for purchases, plane tickets or hotels 65% more expensive.Summarizing, we must choose well what we buy, because to the 65% of taxes on credit card purchases, we must add customs taxes if we buy more than $ 50 a year.
In the corresponding section, I will ask you which place is better to buy some spare parts.

My nickname is Bat-man, and I greet you sincerely from Buenos Aires, Argentina.



PD: I need to practice my English. I know I don't write very well, I lack some practice. I will improve.

Since 2008.

He's been quiet for two years. First, for health reasons. Then the covid pandemic. I was going to travel to the USA but the economic problems in my country reduced my purchasing power. So I couldn't travel. I was planning to visit California. On the last trip I bought the complete clutch. Now I need distributor cap, brake cylinders, spark plugs and wiring. And with that, get it on the way again.

Excuse my poor English, please. I can read, understand or hearing music, but speaking, drafting and writing are different and sometimes a bit difficult when you don't do it often. But that's what I'm here for. It will do me good to practice.
