Just dropping in to say hi and get started...

comin from a strange history of cars...s281 saleen, f150 lightning, lifted on 35 wrangler, 30r subie, bi-ped/bicycle lacking a vehicle haha...

 

Well you've got the diversity points

Do you have a rotary?

 

haha nope, working on one right now hopefully....its starting to get cold up here in MI and although im a huge outdoors person and whatnot...it still kinda sucks not being mobile outside of a certain 20mile range (bicycle/running limit) haha...

trying to find a nice FD to buy, have one potential....then it becomes a matter of deciding whether or not to let the gearhead or the investor in me win...ie deck the whole thing out with either a 20B or perhaps a nice turbo ls1, or keep it literally bone stock and restore it as a collector car...

i have a feeling this one might get the secondary treatment....i can always save up and buy one in more 'pristine and untouched' condition later down the line...plus what fun is a car if you cant drive it...

 

welcome

 

Hi i have a question.
i want my first car to be a 2nd Gen Mazda rx7 (manual)
i no alittle about the motor and about the car.
i also have a question?
are the 13B non turbo motors still good?
and how much Km's can a 13B Rotary non turbo take?

thank you

 

What do you mean by "if the 13B non turbo motors are still good?" Do you mean power wise or durability? A non turbo 13B can go anywhere from about 125,000 to 200,000 miles without catastrophic failure or needing a rebuild. I was surprised when my 13B died at 154,000 miles after 21 years.
