Hello! noob here! help!!

Hello all.

I am new to rx7 and mostly new to rotaries. i am in the process of buying an FD3s. since i am new, please give me some pointers at what to look. Also, any thing i might need to know about rotaries and rx7's.

My main object for this cars is to have it as a track/drift/daily car. It has been turboed already. Are 13b reliable? what are the most common failures of the 13b? how much boost can it handle in stock form? where can i get motor parts if i ever have a failure? rebuild kits?

please give me some pointers about this car. looking forward to hearing your responses.

ps: please i am a noob. help me out.

what you guys think?

hey im new as well. names charlana.

i have a 13b TII in my fc the odometer reads 143,xxx and i need a rebuilt soon

also i was lookin around at some other post and it says the 13b motors normally last anywhere from 150,000 - 200,000 miles while the turbos are 125,000 to 150,000

idk if that helps any but i dont think these questions belong here? i know theres a newbie tech help section
