Hello all, new member here. Currently living in Tennessee and in the military for the past 17 years. Recently starting looking for an FD with no luck. Well if I ever do find one I will be sure to post it up. I have never owned one but I have recently been introduced to the rotary platform and for what I want it seems like the way to go. Thanks to all.
Miles

Thank you, only took about two years to find one. It is currently torn apart so I can go through everything. It was previously sitting for about two years so I have alot of changes I want to make. But it was well taken care of and runs like a champ.

Sounds like you have a great car to start with! It's a good idea to go through the car to make sure its where you want and to address things that need attention.

So have had a lot of projects happening simultaneously with the RX7 lately (carpet, interior, engine bay, and brakes). I have been slowly cleaning the engine bay, removing rust and painting as I go. Replaced some gaskets today and reinstalled the UIM and TB. I thought I marked everything as I disassembled but found a hose coming off the boost controller that I do not remember removing. Looking at the AVC-R instructions it seems to be geared to a sequential setup. The line that is "Td" runs down to the waste gate and trying to figure out where this other side goes to. First pic is how the engine bay started, its a slow process but I'm trying to clean as much as I can. The third picture has the hose in question.
