NC My First RX7! new guy to the club

hey guys i just got my First Rx7 and i have never worked on a rotary motor before so this is all new to me, i have a 1991 rx7, i believe that is is a FC3S, it has the 13b non turbo motor. im really gunna need some help with this one so if you guys could lend me a hand with any questions i got that would be amazing. so the first one i got is how do i replace the waterpump gaskets? if a step by step post could be made with pics that would be amazing. and the second, i live in richlands NC, if there are any other members out my way id really like to start some sort of rx7 meet if there isnt one already. thanks guys

Rotaries and RX-7's are fascinating and beautiful cars. Of course they can be tedious to deal with sometimes. I think you'll be pelased with your car. I have a turbo '91 FC and I love it. Welcome to the rotary world. If it's in your blood, you'll be a lifer.
I clicked on link and it worked. Try checking it again.
