new girl from va/md area....fixing up her rx-7
Hi my name is bianca. i have had an rx-7 for about a month. it needed a lot of work. so far i have replaced all the belts charged the battery ect. i have it running. the person put a sound system in that needs fixing and the car supposedly has turbo or nitro... idk the difference. anyway cars werent my thing before this but damn rx7 has changed my view.
i have a convertible one that i replaced the top, window, belts, battery, needs new rug.
so basically hi ... kind of nervous at the undertaking of doing this myself... as a girl and an inexperinced repair person. any help welcome .... because it is kind of crazy for me. the owner before me obviously loved this car they put in sound system with amazing bass, new engine a 13b, new tranny, new racing seats and steering wheel, and among the other things... given to me for free when i helped him feed his family so he gave me a car... kind of crazy... but hell welcome and hope i get better at this car stuff

i also just got an rx7 turbo II that needs work. the guy wanted a grand for it but the tires were all dry rotted, the intake was in the trunk and it needed a few other things before it would even run so we got it for $600. the good thing was it only had 100K miles on it.
