it's starting to become cold. what percautions, and steps i need to take to keep my rx on the road. also how does rx7's hold up in the snow?

 

If your driving an automatic, your screwed, if you have a manual, you have some chance at surviving a mild snow storm, i know i was able to drive in about 1-2" of snow. Rx7's are perfect balanced 50/50 if you have a passenger of equivalent weight, and a full tank of gas, throw a sand bag in the trunk to add some extra grip to your rear tires, and be careful how much torque you put to the wheels, or else you'll spin your tires and get nowhere, drive slow, and cautiously, and always leave your car in gear going down hills, up hills, just keep the car moving if you can. I'd say try to keep your rpm range around 3.5k to 4k while driving around. And check all your vacuum hoses, make sure they are snug, and tightened down, because i've had one come loose from the temperature changing, and i could keep my car running if i held the choke manually, a pain in the *** to steer, shift, when you only have one hand free because one is holding the choke. lol

yeah drive slow, in the snow, if your tring to keep traction...hills are somewhat difficult in these cars,

or do what i do , just drive crazy snow drifting, dont wind up in a ditch tho!! or into another car haha!!!

 

get snow tires?

 

well it doesnt really snow much up here, so i dont know if u really need snow tires.....

some things for winter in general u could do would be , make sure your tires are decent, if yours are allmost worn out maybe get some semi decent rain tires, since wet season is coming, replace your wiper blades, flush your coolent make sure its the 50/50 ratio ect stuff like that.
buy a thermometer at your house! watch it, if its close to freezing freezing, drive alot more cautiously to work and back,or ect!! ice patches can pop out of no where.
