TX New rx7 fd owner in dallas, tx

Hello, my names Remington....A blue 94' just got traded in at my wife's dealer. She test drove it and fell in love. They gave us a price we couldnt refuse, so now we've got a new toy. its blue, 5psd w/ 83k mi. nearly stock too. enkie rpf1's, downpipe, cat'd midpipe and apexi catback, short shifter. We currently drive a 07' slk55 amg, 02' transam ws6 and 93' single turbo 6psd supra (500whp). Im a benz technician but ive got to admit im clueless on rotaries, so ive joined up to learn. First up is some general maint, and replacing of some minor broken interior trim items. Car is in great shape for 20yrs though. Also the cat's got to go, the car is way to quite.

sounds nice mate. as per usual with most cars: if you treat the car well, it will treat you well back and it sounds like you're doing the right things.
This is a great forum to learn anything rx-7 related and i hope you find what you are looking for.
Good luck with the car

It was empty on refridgerant when we got it, so i pulled a vacuum and leak tested, recharged. blows cold now but is more like someone breathing on you lol.
