Hi from San Antonio
 
Just joined the forum a few weeks ago. I have owned a few RX7s over the years and currently have a 91 convertible that I converted to a Turbo II. Still a work in progress, but pleased with the added performance.

Hello, from another Texan and also a 91 vert owner,:icon_tup: mine is mostly stock though. I am East of you on I-10. Pasadena, TX.

Post some pics or yours.

Not the greatest pics. I just installed coilovers and as you can see I got the dreaded camber problem in the back. Going to install some Ronin camber links and see how much comes out. Just got them in today. Have you found a place that carries the gas shock that holds up the trunk lid? Are you doing any restoration on yours?

Clean car man. Welcome.

I have not bought these, yet, but they are also on my list of to do's. My trunk will stay up if it's all the way up or doesn't get blown down by the wind.

I have had to replace a couple of the dash vents and interior side mirror covers. Eventually I will need to fix the drivers seat bolster? It isn't torn, just the usual leather drying out and wear. I had the a/c replaced and converted. It only has 47k on it, and mostly stock so I haven't needed to very much else.

Very nice car looks like we have the same color and year.

Thanks for the lead on the gas struts for my trunk lid

Let me know how the camber links work & If your ever in the Houston area let me know. it would be cool to get some pictures of the cars.

Eorme 02-03-17 10:06 PM

will do. I just put the links in. They took care of about half the camber problem. I researched the forum about the problem and I am also going put whiteline camber bushings in to get out more camber. It is always something when you start modifying things.

got the trunk struts today for the vert the work great.

I had two 91 convertibles back in the late 90s, and early 2000s. One white w/blue leather, and one red w/black leather.

That metallic blue is the best color and looks terrific.

The RX-7 convertible is one of the best looking cars bar none.

I have had this on since 2000 blew the water seals and let it set for 15 years Then decided to convert it to a turbo II from a doner car and a good motor. Been happy so far with the results, but the conversion was a lot more work than I planned. Playing with a rtek and a wideband now to make sure I am not running to lean with a change in intake and exhaust from stock.
