FL Hello from Tampa

HI!

My name is Mike and I recently bought an 82 RX7.
It has a little cancer and needs some interior cleanup and work. It has shock knock so I assume it needs suspension work and some bump stops. There is some play in the steering so that's another project. The motor runs pretty good but the carb needs some adjustment and maybe some plugs, wires, cap and rotor to help the stutter when I step on the gas. There seems to be a problem with the speedo, maybe the cable (it doesn't work) and the Oil pressure gauge, maybe the sending unit (also doesn't work).
I'm looking forward to the work I get to do and since this is my first wankel I'm sure there will be a learning curve.
I guess I have some work to do so I'll be asking for advice from you all on the forum so thanks in advance!
