New FD owner Stationed in Germany

Hey, I'm Johnathan. New to the rotary lifestyle. Just sold my 2001 Subaru WRX UK Spec to get a 1992 Mazda RX7 Efini Jap Spec. Any advice or help is appreciated.

Just has to pass the inspections here. Car enthusiasts get J Spec vehicles here a lot. Easy for Americans stationed here.

Well I'm currently stationed in Germany. So it's kinda restricted on what I can do. So I'm just gonna try to clean up the interior. Keep up the rotary as long as possible. Get better coilovers. Possibly get the car vinyl wrapped... I'm still new to rotary so any tips on what fluids to use? Like transmission fluid? Motor oil? Etc?

Im stationed here at kadena. I can mail stuff to you all day for free you know. If you ever need parts let me know. Stock or aftermarket.

For engine oil i use catroil 20-50 non synthetic, transmission and diff i use red line, coolant i use 90% distilled water 10% prestone. Most will suggest neo or amsoil for your diff and transmission. Theres no wrong choice really.
