MN New Member From Mn!

Hey guys/gals.... My name is Cody.

First time on here. I just picked up a 1994 Rx7 thats going to be needing a lot of work but was well worth the price of $400 that i payed for it.

Before this rx7 I have owned numerous Nissan 240sx's, that had anything from a ka24e/de to sr20det to rb25det. As you can probably tell from my user name I will be drifting this fd. Plans are to have it ready to go in about a year or 2. My daily car is a 2001 gs300 with stance coilovers and 20inch Mrr Hr3's

I will be looking for a whole lot of parts for my fd and also some info and input for making this thing quite the beast of a drift car. Any info and tips would be great.

Anyways thanks for letting me on this site and hopefully it all works out!

I am also a new member from Minnesota. I am new to rotary motors. I have a 70's mgb I have been working on for a bit, after doing some research, I purchased a 84 rx with a 12a to transplant. I hope to swap the motor, tranny and rear out of the rx7 and into the rx. I plan on rebuilding the 12a and porting it.

Dave,
If you we're asking me, yes I did. I was really surprised at the condition of the car. It has been sitting for some time but is in very good condition. Other than the motor being partially disassembled and a dented front fender, there isn't much wrong with it, no rust at all. I also picked up a extra set of tires, complete intake and carb, header and exhaust, and many other parts. I really am contemplating selling the b and keeping this. A roadster would be cool and it would probably come in a few hundred pounds less.

Yea it was too good of a price to pass up on, even with getting married in august. Especially when the fiance isnt wanting to spend a whole lot of money..... oh well! Here's to racking up the credit cards!
