New to the RX7 world!
 

Hey guys & girls. My name is Josh. I am a huge car guy & gear head. But I am new to the whole rotory motor & RX7 world. I own a 91' Nissan 240sx Coupe & a 87' Nissan 300ZX Turbo, soon to be traded for a 87' FC RX7. So that's Y im here, I need help with my soon to be FC. As it don't run right now.

Hey Josh. Good luck with the car!

Thanks! I plan on having fun with it. First order of business will be getting it running.

Well update. My dumb ass didn't compression test the motor before trading my running 87 300zx turbo for this pos. Yup the motor needs a rebuild, 15psi on the front rotor on all faces & 30psi on the rear rotor on all faces. I would not do any business with quicksilver34. He told me that the motor was fine & it's not. Oh well live & learn.

So now im pulling the motor & learning what failed & how to rebuild it. Fun! Fun!

Any advise on inspection & rebuilding would be great.

Thanks.

It ok Josh now u are in the rotary game it cool we live & learn

wow the older ones look alot better cleaned up :o

Thanks. Yea I like the FC body style a lot. I will be posting up some pics with out the kit soon.

Nice rides. I like the rx8 wheels on the FC.

that sucks. I love z31's they dont get enough credit. But oh well, gotta start somewhere. :D

nice car good luck with it

Yea the Z31 was never really a popular car. But there great. I'm thinking cuz the rotory is blown that I mite rebuild my extra vg30et & swap it in the FC.

I am coming from the world of Nissan as well. Rotaries are a bit more finicky but you'll get the hang of it.

nice.

Any ideas where I can get a 13b or 20b engine from in nz?

Stock body looks legit!
