New 1987 NA Owner.

After lurking the forums and seeing all the great builds everyone has been doing for quite some time now I decided to finally pull the trigger and get my own RX7. I am the 3rd owner of this 87 NA Coupe and I couldn't be happier! It's a blast to drive and gets some attention too. (even though it is mostly stock and faded in some spots)

I plan to swap in a TII some point in the future and use it for some autocross. But for now I am just enjoying the car as it is while fixing the quirks it has.

Welcome to the club. The car looks pretty good for its age. What all do you need to fix?

So far I have had to replace the thermostat housingg due to a bad seal I also replaced the radiator hose and thermostat while I was at it. I had a new battery as well. The remaining things on my fix list before I drive it any more is to get new break pads and possibly upgrade rotors, bleed the brakes and clutch, and I have a very slow fuel drip in the line behind the front left tire that I need to fix.

It's definitely doing good for being 30 years old!
