ON Robert a.k.a. Bob, new to site (88 rx7 gxl 2+2).

Hi all, im new here but have been viewing the site for 7 years now for random info on my rx-7. It is completly stock apart from rims, ehaust 2 1\4 front to back custom and got the interior completly re-done.
A liitle about me, my best story to tell and make people laught . My passion for cars basicly started when I was 16 and had my first car. Dont juge lol ... yeah it was a saturn 1.9l twin cam. After the car hit 280 000km it would not pass e-test.
I did a complete engine rebuilt... I didnt have a garage or any special tools but the basics. So yeah I did that sucker outside in the gravel driveway. Then brought my engine inside on the kitchen table and did the completed rebuilt lmao (40 days). Oversized the engine rings, forged piston seals , shaved etc.... Learned quickly that those engine cant take the extra power ( heating issues but not major) the problem was the transimmion that could not hold the torque. After putting in the 5th transmission I bough my RX-7 . No issues with this one yet but got it at only 88 000 and does not burn oil except what it needs.

Hope this is not to long of an intro :s

have a good one,
