I was wondering this is a true t2 or is this guy trying to pull a fast one on me? Also do you guys think its a good deal?

It's a 10AE (10th anniversary edition). Or at least it appears to be from the pictures. Someone could fake it, but it would be a lot of work. Search the 2nd gen section for info on 10AEs. They're highly sought after.

kinda like a 50th ae 300zx theys only one year and so many made..... my dream car is a10th ae tII. and if its rebuilt for 5k isnt bad. all white like most tIIs has all the 10th ae molding and it is a true turbo(it has the hood and all the turbo parts) very hard to muster up a 10 ae from just parts here and there. i beleive it for shure a tII 10th ae..... BUY IT....(if money is no issue) u may have to repair small wearable parts but in the end having a new rebuilt engine should easily make up for any repairs......

thanks for all the help guys im gonna try to go look at the car today or tomorrow. Sadly its almost 2 hours away but it will definitely be worth it

i just talked to him on the phone and the only thing that scares me is that he said the trans is original do you guys think its okay with 159k on it???

Also he mentioned its running a little ruff. He said the engine only has 30 miles on it. It also has 1 piece apex seals. He said the car doesnt like to idle correctly and it also has a slight miss when you lean on it ( around 3k rpm ). He took it to KDR rotary shop and the guy looked it over and said its your injectors or M.A.F. So the guy replaced the injectors and it ran good for about a day then started acting up again. Does this seem like a serious problem or is it just because the engine is not broken in yet? Or could it just be his M.A.F sensor

the transmission should be fine since they are really durable for the TII models. now idk about the missing thing. check all wires and plugs, make shure u have right temp plugs. other than that idk..

Maybe it could be the TPS is going bad or a bad vacuum some where. You need to know how bad it studders at 3000. but for the money I wouldnt pass up a 10thae bc if u put some love(money) if you know what i mean you could make it pretty solid.

Also there is a thread on here about 1 piece apex seals titled (1 piece apex seals?) search for it and read it. It might explain the rough idle.

okay thank you so much for the help guys il definitely look into it.. i just need to prove to my dad now that i should be allowed to get it :/. He is afraid because of the roughness which is a little understandable but i neeeeeed this car lol. Also any one have a general guess on what insurance would be for this car? Im 18 ( turn 19 in december ) and iv never been pulled over and never gotten introuble by cops at all. Also i have state farm

i pay 76 a month one high risk insurance because i have like 3 no isurance tickets and i needed sr-22 insurance just to get my license back. so expect to pay something lower than that. this is with progressive.. note that gieco is a rip off imo. they wouldnt even cover my car when some lady changed lanes and wrecked me. her fault just dropped me i was like thanks dropme when i need u. progressive is alot nicer to me although i think allstate is the best.IMO

DcinPa

alright awesome. i pay about 90 now so its probably gonna stay that same which is awesome! Now i just need to tell my car and buy this one thanks for all the help everyone and i cant wait to be the proud owner of an rx7!

pround owner of one of the like 5-6 thousands made...... maybe like 2500 left.... lucky bastard....

DcinPa

alright every one im going to go look at the car either today or tomorrow so please give me some tips on things to look for and watch out for!

DcinPa

the guy just called me and he told me that the car is running a little better but it sounds like a vacuum leak and it does not accelerate smooth. He did say i runs and starts fine though. What could this be?
