Hey, all!

I'm about to be the proud new owner of an RX-7 - an '85 GSL-SE, specifically. Shiny exterior, and a rotary engine that doesn't (suspected dead seals). The current owner bought it as a project, never touched it, and started getting tickets from the city for non-running vehicle.

I'm not 100% sure what my plans are for this 7 yet. It involves 325-400whp, and I'm trying to figure out what's gonna be the best way to get there - whether that's with the black-magic 13b, or a piston engine... not sure yet.

I've got a pair of '84 Nissan 300ZX 50th Anniversary Editions (both turbo - one for racing, one for regular driving), so I'm not new to the whole finicky-'80s-Japanese-vehicle thing. I AM new to the rotary game, though. So, hi, and here's some pics.
