NM New FC Owner

Hey everyone my names Zach. Just bought a 1988 Rx-7 GXL. It was originally silver, but now its white. Security system was cut along with a few other things, sun roof doesnt open as of yet, and the tach doesn't work. Its a bit rough but im hoping to learn alot about rotary's and keep it for a looong time. My brother who owns an FC helped me change out my short shifter (without bushings....) for a stock one (still need to order bushings) and i have a new cluster ready to go in. Need to learn how to switch it out and have the miles match. Hope to get to know people on the forum and learn more. Have fun!

Oh, any reason why you chose the FC over the other models? I'm having a debate on which to get..

I mainly chose the FC because its the model my brother has, and people i know through him. I love the FD but its way out of my price range... And thank you to everyone for welcoming me

cgspence360 and Napkinz, I feel like theres a lot of us out here with some diamond in the rough FCs. It just feels good to aid in preserving their glory.
