New 1990 FC owner

What is up gamers. I知 21 and I bought my dream car this weekend. A 1990 RX7 FC convertible NA. I bought it from a dealership I work at in SoCal called CNC Motors. When this bad boy rolled into my showroom I knew it had to be mine. This is the cleanest car I致e ever seen that is 30 years old. Only 50k miles and completely stock. I致e done online research on rx7s and how to maintain them properly for years and have worked with techs at work here. So I知 somewhat confident that I値l keep this great rx7 example alive for a long time. And once it dies I plan on rebuilding and keeping her going. Being that this is my first rotary car, I知 happy to be apart of this community now and looking forward to speaking with some rx7 enthusiasts. Now for a couple quick questions, I知 replacing all 4 belts on Monday and getting new tires, anything else I should look and see if it needs replacing? Also my power windows roll down halfway and need help rolling back up by me pulling up on the glass. I知 going to have a tech help me look into it but if anyone has had the same experience and has some tips it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance

Welcome! That's one exceptionally clean FC!! If you maintain it properly it will give you many years of trouble free service. I would also consider replacing the spark plugs and air and fuel filters. Inspect the vacuum lines to ensure they are still tight and pliable. I would also change the oil and filter and ensure you use the correct 20W50 weight. A coolant drain and refill would also be a good idea while you're there. And if you're going that far, I wouldn't hesitate to drain and fill the trans and diff. Do you know any of the car's history? Would love to see more pictures of the car!
