Hi, Ryan from Maryland

Hey everybody, just picked up an '87 RX7 Turbo II in a trade. My first ever rotary but certainly not my first car. Hoping to keep this one for a long time. I've always loved the FC body but never owned one so I figured why not.

Anyway, here she is. Got it off a guy who only had it for a month, he says the last owner built her.

-Full S5 conversion
-Rebuilt motor
-2mm Apex seals
-Big street port
-Emissions deletes
-550cc injectors
-Aluminum timing plate
-Greddy BOV
-Front mount IC
-3" single exhaust
-6 puck clutch
-20mm front fenders
-Glass sunroof

All I can think of for now. Not entirely sure if he did an S5 motor swap or just rebuilt the stock motor. Noticed it has an S5 alternator and upper coolant neck. But the OMP appears S4. So I'm assuming its a rebuilt S4 motor with a few S5 parts. It does have the S5 rear tails which is nice! Also have a dyno sheet that says at 9psi it made 262whp. He did turn the boost up to 11psi though.

When I bought her, the fans decided to stop working and I got caught in traffic 2 hours from home. She worked her way up to a little over half on the temp gauge before I could get off the highway and pull over. Ended up running to an autozone and buying a fan for the drive home haha. But its all wired up properly and running well now. No smoke under boost either.

Got home, cleaned the car up, fixed my fan wiring, and then installed a Vibrant filter because the last guy wasn't running one. Changed the oil yesterday, Castrol GTX 10w30. Wanted 20w50 but they were out and I figured summer is just about over here anyway. I've been dailying her for the past week
