Whats up guys! I just purchased a 94 rx7 vr and would just like to introdue myself to the club. My name is Jon and I have always loved the FD, finaly i was able to afford one only cause my brother has 2 and decided he didnt want 2 cars to fix up so he sold me his FD for the crackhead price of $4000 but the engine will need a rebuild soon. Anyways Im looking forward to chatting with all of you...

Lol @ crackhead price, what's his other car?

Www.rotaryresurrection.com has good prices on rebuilds.

I'd do a compression test and see where you stand. 100+ is good. 90-100psi is getting weak.

We actually got it running and all it was was a fuel pump and poor battery connection and we also had to clean and wipe off the connections on the starter because of all the oil thats been leaking on the signal wire to the starter....Not a bad score considering my brother hooked me up....
