The 1st gen's are relatively easy to work on and lend themselves to a number of cost effective performance improvements. If you are not alredy familar with it I would suggest you find/read Jim Downings book on How to Modify your aRx7. This will give you a number of ideas on your options. This and some other excellent references are are posted on the web at: http://foxed.ca/foxed/index.php?page=rx7manual#other

I have read as much as possible on this forum and on the web to know more about this car
As normal in one car that is stop by 4 years with only a few startups from time to time the problems have started.
So after replace break and engine fluids filter (fuel filter no yet) and clean breaks and other small stuff the car is runing, i have a problem with the secondarys, the front one start leaking fuel at idle and i end up with front spaks with fuel not letting the engine run, so i know that maybe there is a problem with the secondarys in this cab, most of the time they don´t open but if they do i´m able to spin the 225 /50 / 15 tires that i have in the back in 2º gear.
not bad for this old engine but i know that is able of more, since i´m in Europe i need to order things from USA, like the exhaust line and some other stuff.
For example here only 1 spark plug cost over 50 USD (insane) and i need to replace all 4 and get more 4 for any emergency on the road.
I will try to make this 24 years old MACHINE last maybe more 10

Tanks man, i shore need luck with it, here we don´t see this cars running on the road anymore, people that have it only use it from time to time and on shows.
I will make it different with this babe, it will be like my 1989 MX-6, daily drive, this cars last longer if they run than if they are stop.
by the way, this car was imported from germany in 1998, same year but only 3 months after i imported my Mazda MX-6 (here they call it 626) from Luxemburg, funny how things are, and i only notice it today.
