Seriously, who likes the FC's? I didn't, until i rode in a friends 7.
Personally i drive a turbo 1.8T VW, N/A 7's are slow compared to it.
But the potential of the 7's, the RWD, and the asthetics grew on me like i
never would have thought.

So the 10th I'm picking up my 91 N/A 7 Fc...

Yep, I'm a sell out.

Sad thing is, this 7 needs some TLC. Money that WAS going to the VW is now going to the 7... I feel i betrayed my VW, but hey... RWD!!!

 

don't feel bad, i have a 90 jetta with about...everything possible done to it...

8lb flywheel 16v swap, megasquirt, fancy suspension... poly bushings blah blah blah, the car is tons of fun, i've never really beaten on it much..

BUT... my rx7 shows up saturday... with a v8 so i've betrayed you all and i'm sorry, HAHA

 

lol why a v8? i got the rx cause the rotory!

*covers up rotory tatoo on his back*

jk, but it would be neat!

 

i love rotaries, i like 300 hp and 400 ft lbs more..hahaha

the rotary to me is the coolest frickin engine around

but you can't go worng with a cheap car that has a 2004 coil on plug engine swapped in...

YEY!

 

you'll find your 7 to turn into an addiction. Welcome.

 

yup
especially when you have a good engine and a bad chassis and then you find a nice chassis and then you wana drop yours in it and then you find one mint and want to drop these two and pick that up and then you do and find out yours was better and then you dont want it and start all over again

or you do the same from b to the c to the d and then you miss your b lol lol

enjoy

 

Ya rotary engines are amazing. I would defile any car but a muscle car with a rotary transplant... still can't touch the 454 mazda... still can't touch the 454...

 

I'd gladly take a 4 rotor rex...hahahaa

Honestly I don't really like how the ls1 soudns so much, I love the buzz of a 16v 4cyl or rotary...

My 90 jetta with a 2L 16v with goodies sounded like an angry chainsaw, I loved it..hahah

Car is showing up today, super excited.

 

ya im a dubber to man dont feel bad this guys are so helpful and i bet you cant wait till your boosted

 

I had an 04 jetta but sold it to pay for school. Now i got a NA 7 and its even though its not as strong as id like it to be im still having more fun with it than with the VW haha youll love your rex

 

post some pics!

 

ha, my friend has a 455 buick built for drag racing. after taking him for a ride in my FD he got out of the car shaking and said "that car is scary fast! I couldn't even pull my head off the seat." when i asked him if it was faster than his buick, he said most definitely lol. big blocks are torque monsters, but a well built 13b can take one, much less a 3 rotor 20b. see attached picture for a veiw of what a well built 13b can do with just 79 cubic inches

 

Don't consider yourself a sellout, your just being more open minded with other cars.
Im coming from a Honda background and I def. know how you feel

 

ur not a sell out. your coming to the light! haha! have fun with the 7

 

Just bought my 1st RX7. How do i know what I have? I know it's an 1993 rx7, but is see all these different motor numbers and R1 rx7? not sure what that is. help me, I'm new.

 

the 93 was the r1. ours are the easiest to identify cause the 93 was the r1 and was the only year they came stock with two oil coolers in the front, on either side of the radiator. you have the 13b-rew with twin sequential turbos. any mods done to it yet?

 

Hows getting an RX7 being a sellout?
