Hay whats up guys, just sealed the deal this morning on an 86 RX-7.

Has 66k on it
Not one mod besides a cd player.
Interior is in great shape
Outside is a lil rough.
Just needs a fuel pump and it will be good to go.

paid 650 for it.













once its running im going to start doing some body work.

I will need an exhaust so any suggestions would be great.

Not a fan of the Apexi system though.

Also any suggestions and tips would be great.

I have alot of FAQ postings to read lol.

But a lil about me:

I live in pittsburgh and my other mazda is a mazdaspeed protege.

240whp and 220tq @ 8psi on a mustang dyno.







Thanks for checking out my post and cant wait to get the RX-7 up and running.

 

Wow, your interior looks mint... Very nice buy...

 

Nice good luck on the 7. has potential.

 

ya i was real happy to see the interior was in such great shape.

cant wait to get it running.

 

there is racing beat, borla and greddy exhaust i have a greddy on mine and i love the sound

 

nice find man!
keep us up to date with wat u do to it.

 

i would like to keep duals for now and to be honest i would not like to have a big fart can, i have on the protege and they dont look horrible on cars just not my taste.

i had a pacesetter exhaust on my MX-6 and i like it alot, its sounded good and looked stock from the looks of it its a dual DTM mufflers.

Have there been bad experiences with guys running it?

will do.... Should have it running tomorrow, im going to take some starter fluid and just see if i can get it to start, that will help make sure that its just the fuel pump.

Also is there a pittsburgh/pa section on here?

 

well i hope you make the 7 as nice as the mazdaspeed.

 

thanks and yes it will be probably nicer haha.

going to be weird to be NA again but it will be sweet to have RWD.

 

well got the car to my place, fires right up with starting fluid. Just having a bitch of time with the dam screws to get to the fuel pump and i ran out of sunlight. So hopefully tom. ill be able to get it.

But for today i got the title and changed some fuses.

a fat kid in a small place haha.


dam screws suck




on this pic there is a faint green circle, what is this block off plate for? also to the right of that a lil there are two green connectors that have nothing connected.

 

nice find for a good price too! love to see the "work in progress" pics....

 

dude, good luck with this project, your interior is cherry clean.

 

got it running today

and my oil pressure is at 60psi.... is that good?

 

ya thats normal.

 

alright cool,

so after driving it a lil more the power streering isnt working and the gas gauge isnt working either.

Also when i was done driving i let it idle for like 5 mins or so and maybe about like 5 hours later i went to start it up and it wouldn't start.

I was reading somewhere about flooding the motor and having to let it sit but i wasnt sure what caused it to happen.

after i wouldnt start it sat for a 3-4 more hours and then fired up, but i was just wondering what could prevent this from happening.

 

Run a can of seafoam Found at any parts store Napa , Advance auto, etc. threw the gas tank also let some drip into the throttle body while its idling or at low revs. Cleans all the deposits out of the injectors and passages not sure what the block off plate is there on all of them i believe, and the green connectors which are not connected are Mazda dealership factory DLC prom plugs for there Diagnostic machines, machines which are very rare to find since there circa 80s and discontinued Factory mechanics equipment. Great find have fun my $1500 1989 6spd GTU now makes 700HP lol

 

That block off plate isn't actually a block off plate. Its the the cover for your crank angle sensor (CAS).

 

well the car has been idle for a LONG time, but the car just got picked up today is getting shipped to kissimme, which is where i moved to a few months ago.

for those of you in the area ill be seeing you guys soon... just moved in with sen2two about a month ago.

 

msp's are pretty sick, I rode in a friends msp with just about every suspension mod and chassis brace on it. Tons of grip even on street tires.

 

Very nice interior, good luck
