Hi everyone,

I just took over my brother's FD3S (very close to stock).

Seems like there are alottttttttttttt of things to fix/mend/improve on .. haha

This forum is a very good knowledge base, and seen many nice RX7s here!

Hope to turn the ride reliable, comfy, and a little more exciting.

Car scene in Malaysia is still alright, we lack the skills and know how for rotary engines thou..

Parts are a little hard to source for, as for the place I am at (JB) we only have less than 10 RX7s on the streets

Only have 2 workshop that know how to rebuild the engines..



And, hi there Kryan!

How are the roads in Malaysia? My car was great to have in California, not so hot to drive in Toronto traffic and the snow. Both my car and I were happy to leave Toronto for Houston.

sup guys!

yeah Malaysia is hot all year round around 30-32c degrees, my water temps is about 90c while crusing, and slightly above 100c when im pushing it.

Still running a front mount atm.

Front mount is weird, when you are pushing it, even with the air rushing in, the temps would rise. However when you are idling the temp drops. lol

Is the water temp range for your cars the same during summer?
