It looks real good! Haven't done much with it other than look at it and move it to the side so the wife has a spot to park

NM Just picked this little Beauty up!

Hey guys, just picked up an 85 GS 7 for 500! It needs just a few little things to get her going, has rebuilt motor with roughly 2000 miles on it and had been sitting since 04. I lubricated the Apex seals, and added some oil, coolant, and just a tiny bit of fuel since the tank had be previously drained and clean before I got it and it didn't wanna start. So I splashed some in the carb and it ran for about 10 seconds and cut off. So i found out that I need a new fuel pump. It also needs a slave cylinder and a left rear glass and front fender and bumper. Other than pretty straight and clean. If anybody would like to come and help me get this car back the way it should be please let me know as this is the first rotary that I have owned! But let me know what you guys think!!

I'm still kickin around. Trying to make my car run right again. So far i've got a new ish s4 6port in, i just received a gasket kit from rotary resurrection(replacing water pump, t-stat, cleaning 5th and 6th ports), and block of kit from banzai.going to block off some of the emissions, like sub zero, OMP and EGR, prolly going to keep BAC (cus it works fine now and i hate coolant leaks). Now i just need to order a water temp gauge and tap my pump housing. Still trying to cool this thing down. I should have a 125 inch dual primary road race exhaust here by the end of the week(maybe). Its getting shipped from FL and their storms are ****** up my rotary sauce. Oh if ya see this ransom im trying to get back to town next weekend if ya wanna get rid of that body **** ya saved fer me. Im not sure if ya had a undertray too, but i need one... Matt, do ya still got one?

Anyone here know of a reputable mechanic in the Missoula area that is willing to do an engine pull/install on a 94 rx7? I bought a slightly used shortblock, and need it installed. I was going to do it myself, but now we're building our garage in my work space, and I want the car running soon.

No idea man. I'd help ya out but i also have no shop. Im trailering my car back to my folks for a rebuild. My slightly used motor only lasted 800 miles.I think my car hated me for half assing it with a used motor. Something to think about.

Sweetness ill be needing that if youre willing to part with it. The AFM is going to be my main point of restriction on my bridgy, then the crappy intake.
Im going to need all the extra flow i can until the rtek can get rid of the AFM.
How Much ya want for it?
And do ya have any other goodies?
Tools too I would like to borrow your big socket again if possible.
And does anyone have a rotisserie? I need to roast my chassis like a pig
