Greetings from TN!

New RX-7 owner here.

I've been a member for a while and an RX-7 has been on my bucket list forever.

I've been an MR2 enthusiast for a long time. I've seen and done just about everything to an MR2 and owned 14 of them.

When I saw a Craigslist ad last week for an 85 GSL-SE for trade, I said Fk it and jumped in. Came with complete records, even gas fill-ups, going back to 1990.

So now I'm the proud new owner of a fairly solid FB with a ear-bleeding loud exhaust and vague steering.

In research mode...Gotta squelch this noise and a full steering system replacement and steering box adjustment is in order.

After that, some old school rims and then I'm going to slowly restore it.

Congrats on the -SE score. I'm astounded by how many are actually still out there.

Thanks for registering and welcome aboard, Tyler! The more 1stgen folk who join, the better, sez I!

Ive owned a real sw20 at one point in my life.
Right hand drive turbo bro.
And now after 5 miatas, two s13's, an Mr2 and an AE86, I find that the vehicle for me is an FC hands down

I want to pick up a mr2 at some point in the near future, they're such awesome little cars.

Agreed. I've had 14 of them, so I was ready for a change. They're solid cars.
