hey everyone out there my name is pablo.

and oh yea just got my first rotary i have been waiting about 6 years for this so ground up is where im starting. got a new to me 83 with a 12a and it is in desperate need of a revamp/rebuild. got it running and no leaks, just ugly.

anyone out there know a good site to get parts for this thing or am i just going to have to rebuild from scratch?

 

Pablo, there are a couple of catalog companies that cater to our 1stgen RX-7's. You can find them all listed on the 1stgen FAQ page or on the thread about aftermarket companies. Of course, another good source would be the classifieds on this board but there's a set of hoops all the New Members have to jump through before they can get access to those boards. This isn't an online catalog company. We want people to join to learn about the cars, hook up with fellow rotorheads in their area and then start picking up parts when they know what they're doing or can get help if they get in trouble. We def do not want people joining just to buy or sell parts.

Read the Sgt Fox sticky thread at the top of this board's index page so you don't get frustrated working your way through the process.

Remember, patience is a virtue.

Welcome to the club Pablo.

 

the cars interior was super damaged i bought some things to clean it up a bit and did a carpet swap temporary so its not so bad and the car was covered in moss and grass was growing from it but i cleaned it all up

 

That car looks very clean for the year, nice.
