Hello everyone. I bought my 93 RX7 a little over 2 years ago now. It ended up having coolant seal issues, so last winter I rebuilt my engine in my garage following a rebuild DVD. I recently moved from Minnesota to Washington. I was a little nervous about the 1600+ mile trip but the car made it with no issues. I've since gotten into autocross and have gone to a track day. I've learned so much from reading threads on RX7club. There really is so much invaluable information. I'm looking forward to continuing learning and enjoying the rotary adventure.

WOW - that DVD must have been extremely detailed, and helpful, with you bringing the car up to spec, and then undertaking that road trip.

Any pics/videos of the trip, with the RX-7 singing?

I saw the link to your route over in the NW section. I'll be looking forward to it too. It would be cool to meet some FD people in the area. Our cars look pretty similar. Is yours twin turbo?

Sorry, no videos. Here's a couple pictures though.


And a picture of the road trip. My mom was nice enough to fly out and drive my daily driver Honda. It was nice to know if anything went wrong we at least had another car so we weren't stranded. The RX7 did great though and I trust it more than ever now.

Hello! I am on the other side of the state (Spokane) and I roll in an FB, but I will be racing out at The Ridge every now and again. If I ever go out there for a track day I will make sure to post on the forum and see if we can't get a few rotaries out there for some funsies.
