New to RX7

Hello all, currently getting into the RX7 platform as it greatly interests me for things such as autox and mountain driving. Currently saving up to get an FC project as I planned on doing a rebuild on any one I get to familiarize myself with the rotary beyond blueprints and diagrams.

Welcome. Hope you find yourself a project soon. FCs seem to be getting tougher to find, but FBs are still out there, and pretty simple to work on.

Yeah so far ive only seen 1 FC that's not a convertible, but I've seen a few FBs within 500 miles for 1200-2500 that I debated as an easier jumping point.

I find that verts are the most common FC's out there right now. Owned one for 8 years and loved it. I've seen a few that have been turbo converted which made them perfect !

Good luck with your search!
