Hello from NC!
Hi, my name is wesley and i just bought a 1991 RX7 NA cheap. I can't wait to get this thing on the road. I will be doing some heavy research on the forums to try to get it up and running. I have had two other rx7s in the past, but luckly back in the day I didnt ever have any issues with either of them. Im thinking the one I just bought may be a rebuild project, which will be a first for me.

According to my compression test, front rotor is dead and the rear has low compression. Looks like a rebuild.
