hi everyone my name is matt i just got my hands on a 1987 rx7 n/a love this car
ive always wanted one and now i got one....

 

Well Matt, thanks for saving an RX-7 from the dustbins of history and welcome aboard to RX-7 Club! How long have you had the rotary fever and where did it come from?

Do tell, mine was a rescue car too, rescued from a dumb redneck with AMAZING exhaust fabrication and bodywork skills

Also, what plans do you have for your car? First mod I'd recommend is upgrading your alternator. Series 4 (86-88) ones are weak as hell. Most guys use FD ones with a dual sheave pulley from Racing Beat, Mazdatrix or Japan2LA (he's a forum vendor and a cool guy overall).

PS. check out ohiorotaries for local events and parts/cars for sale

 

actually i got my 7 from a 16 old kid whos dad didnt want him to have the car because his dad said he would get killed in it....So i traded him my 93 cherokee laredo straight up for it...everything is great on it but im havin idle problems...can anyone help me figure it out

 

thanks akgis i already joined the ohio rotaries its all stock too.i havent a clue what i want to do to it i really wanna do the exhaust i love a car that sounds good....

 

That's awesome, looks like you got a good start

 

I miss my turbo 2
Welcome to the dark side

 

i wish mine was turbo that would be awesome anybody thats has a turbo rx7 wanna trade...lol

 

Idk much about rx7's since I haven't bought mine yet But the 13b-t out of a fc3s is pretty cheap I think like $1300 so run your motor to the ground and save up and do the swap I'm sure u can find a cheap oem rear if u ever wanna change that and suspension is gold to me so just find a nice combo and good to go correct me if I'm wrong anybody.

 

Nice 87'. I'ts the same color as my 87. Although mine does not have a rear spoiler.
