The name is Tristan mcconnell. I just traded my 1991 B18a1 swapped civic for a 1987 rx7 gxl car is about 80% rust free I'll post some photos when I'm home.

Little about me ..Im sort of odd..to normal people.. I like anime .video games...and cars
I live in Wisconsin ..I go to the city's in Minnesota to the sreat races ...


I had enough fun in FF and wanted something rear wheel drive was going to trade for other Mazda's but the rx7 was the close and I have always liked the rotary engine ...

The only down side of getting this rx7 is it needs work but it is a way better car then the civic was

Little about the rx7 it is a 1987 rx7 gxl s4 6 port engine the guy put in a lower mile engine as the body has 215000 miles on it and the engine has 60000-70000 miles but it sat for a while so the injectors got games up at least that's what I think I have put a fully custom exhaust on it just need new intake gaskets and injectors or clean the ones I have but idk how to do that..

I'm joining this forum looking for help and to learn more about these cars and engines I'm not
joiningto get trolled or attacked by grammar notizs so don't bother trying I'll just blow all the trolls
and grammar notiz off

And with that I'm done if you have anything to ask go for it I'm a easy going guy

Go Wisconsin!

I'm relatively new on this forum myself, and don't even have an RX to drive. But you'll love the RWD, it's just absolutely fun. My RWD cars are currently three: '77 Porsche 924 POS, '85 Volvo 744tic, and an '85 Corolla GT-S. With sticky tires, the GT-S is about the most fun I've ever had in a car on track (or autoX.)

welcome, and be safe! Much different animal than your civic.

 

Very Nice FC!

 

Otaku... You bought this from Derrick in Bloomington right? I was gonna buy this from him and the wiring harness started on fire at the starter lol.

 

Looks good!! Makes me miss my FC.

 

Looks good, hope you like it as much as I do

 

hmm idk didst get his name lol but noticed that the starter started smoking when i went to go turn it over wasn't bad fixed that problem and i didnt buy it i traded my civic for it straight up... the civic was like $700-$800 civic but i had a nice fresh block that i added to the trade so $1000 for $1000 lol good trade

 

thanks yeah after i drove my friends drift spec 240sx it just made me fall in love with RWD that and it had a welded dif and rock hard coil overs idk what brand but they where $2500 coilovers

 

nice FC

 

hope u have fun with it

 

me to it has not bin that much of a pain to pull apart tho now i need new gaskets and injectors then it will be on the road and ill be happy

 

Yeah the guy you got it from lives a few blocks away from me. The body is really nice, Not a bad trade at all...

 

yeah the civic had a nice body to but it was a old civic and the want for them whent down after i got it.. when i got my civic they were going for $1300-$2200 for my civic with the swap and everything now you can get one in ok shape with the same swap for like $700-$1100 was not to happy about that so had to trade it .....the guy was a really great guy he haled the car to my house and everything...

 

Ah, jack-stands, an Rx7s best friend.

Whoever had it went a little wild with the nightshade, huh?

Anyhow, good luck on getting it up and running, but just do your best to search the forum because chances are very high that someone has been there before and even then simple stuff will be in the FAQs.

Oh, but for the record, having proper grammar and spelling usually helps people understand you better and will give the impression you're not 14. But do what you want. Nobody's perfect.

Welcome!

 

Lol yeah I have gotten better since the Honda forum I was on but man did they just go off if you miss spelled something was bad needles to say I didn't stay on that forum for long ...and yeah wish he didn't black out the lights would of bin nice ..and I don't have a lot left just need intake gaskets and new injectors and to finish welding up the exhaust and should be done

 

Nice 7

 

thanks
