VA Jake Rihaly, new to the rx7 forums, new to rotarys, new to the FD

Hello to all the rx7 owners out there, my name is Jake Rihaly, I live in Springfield VA, and I just bought my first rx7, an FD3S. As I said I am new to rotarys, NOT engines or modifying or mechanical work. How ever I am slightly worried about the complexity of the car but I've been reading lots of posts, and learning quite a bit I've looked, sorry if I was too lazy to find it, but is there good threads for daily drivers? I've got a good idea about reliability mods and upkeep of the engine but I want to know everything I can before I do something wrong

If you keep mods to the reliability ones and don't track it, it should be trouble free for many years. Change the oil and coolant regularly as well

My goal is 350 hp. I really don't care for much more. Does the reliability significantly decrease with more power?

Thanks guys, everyone has made me feel at home so far. I've already fell in love
