Attention all cenfla people i have bought a turbo rx7 jspec swap i now i belive it blown cuz it overheated and now it hasnt been the same also am starting to see smoke come out at starts and i think am driving with one rotor now it's a shame i just bought this car and now this i don't have money for a rebuilt what mess did i get in to does anybody know a rx7 shop that doesnt cost a lot for a rebuilt??

 

hmm, i could use the motor, even if its bad.

 

See people think that the jspec motors are solid and in actuality they are not.. the seller will tell you that it has less than 40k miles on it but you dont know for sure..there is no way of telling... so i think you bought a bad motor.. did you get it from a reputable source... go to them and let them know...

 

not it was a private seller am really so depressed right now that i fell like just junking the car and get a piston engine thats how bad i feel i love rotary's but i don't think it likes me

 

we've all been through this at one time or another, if you are young i dont recommend RX's anyways, unless its an RX-8 in which you have a warranty. i could use your engine if you want to sell it, i work part time at a junkyard, so let me know.

 

You don't say what generation car you have, but if it's an FD, I don't see how you're going to get away for less than about $4,000 - $5,000. You wouldn't want an $800 rebuild even if such a thing was available. Only a quality rebuild or engine replacement is worth doing. Anything less is just pissing away money when your "bargain" rebuild blows up.

The one thing you may be able to play with is financing. Anybody who has a credit card should be able to talk their credit card company into lowering the rate into the 12% to 14% range by threatening to switch credit card companies.
I consider even that rate range too high, and you might be able to investigate other possibilities such as having the rebuilder extend you credit or taking out a personal loan using the car as collateral.

 

So you blew your new FC's motor?! How much were you boosting? wtffffff! Well....Sell me your front mount set up and blow off valve if you're getting rid of the car. Hope you figure everything out.

I <3 sloppy seconds! yay!

 

people i think it might have been a weak starter cuz i just put i new one and it cranked up!! yea!, But i still need to do i compression check asap where can i get it done at fuegos??ore kilo maybe???? how much can it cost???

 

You sir are a tool, he can sell his parts to anyone he so chooses, this is America the last time I checked, a land where we do what we want and dont capitalize every damn word we say.

 

Maybe you should learn when someone is joking or not before you choose to make an *** out of yourself?

 

CHECK drifts location, south carolina ENUF SAID, Junior he don't know the hood. Go to Kilo or ask Paul/INNOVATION about his Mazda dealer friend.

 

Okay, guys. First stop trying to take advantage of my moron friend. And second he has a 3rd gen motor in his 2nd gen. The fact that he is only 18 or 19, makes the Rx7 suffer. Teenagers have a tendency of pushing there engine to hard. dude you have a rotary, and the only way it will last you is by treating her like a baby. If you get rip of the car for less then what you pay if for, you will completely proof my fact that you are dumb.

 

lol whats with all the bickering lol. you shoulda bought mine and get it worked out. but hey good luck to ya. kevin its prtty easy to do a compression test. call me and tell me whats going on some more.

rotarydrift how are you gonna call somebody and say your coming to check out a car and dont call if your not going to show up. its whatever. im taking a loss but its basicly gone anyway.

 

First he isnt a moron. Second, no one is trying to take advantage of him. Third drive your rx7 like you want to drive it. And forth, it didnt look like a 13b-rew to me.

 

here try this http://www.rotaryresurrection.com/te...ion_check.html for your compression check
and heres my email if you decide you want to sell it or need help with the next 3 weeks
mazdatrix7@yahoo.com

it could be a lot of things that its causing that so start asking shops for general diagnostics of your problem, remember when you buy a engine from japan and they say it has like 30k miles dont think its good because , any rotary owner i know here in japan runs their engines to the ground, plus JCI requires them to change engines because of laws and emissions

 

like i said i don't thnik my engine is blown i think it was the starter cuz when i bought the car the previously owner told me the tranny blew on him so he put a TII tranny but i think he still used a NA starter on and TII tranny but i still need help doing a compression check on it cuz i don't know how to do it

 

give me a call

 

El Nene 7 just gave you a pretty simple way to check your compression

 

did you fix it

 

idk i haven't driven it for two days i agoing to turn it on today and put gas on it and see what happens yo jay i'll give u call as soon as i find ur # again lol

 

1st, he is my friends and i met him through my best friend and what i meant by moron was that he is so f------ clueless. 2nd, he got in to rotaries because i drive a rx7. 3rd, he can drive however he wants, however, what ever happen to the engine is his fault. and 4th, i will said that 4 out 5 chances that his engine is a 13brew. I have seem 12A, 13b 4th and 5th series and REW (i do not get to see this engine that much cause my friend is always working) And I also know it can not be a 13b but a 13brew cuz of the way it is setup the oil pouring tube, the alternator, the intake manifold. I have seem kevin's engine, i doubt you might have. So if you have not, do not be telling me what it is or not.

 

so.. today i took my 7 to fuegos for him to check it out he is going to check everything and see whats wrong with it also he is going to do a compression check i'll will post the numbers here when i get it juan thanks for being there and Jr but don't fight

 

1st. If he is a moron or fing clueless about cars then help him.
2nd. Thats nice that you think he got into rotaries becuase of you.
3rd. I SAID he should drive it however he wants, read up.
4th. So you're not even sure what motor it is? Congrats on making a point And I have seen his motor
5th. You should totally run a spell and grammar check, seems like you could use some help.

Im not fighting Kevin, im just getting kicks and giggles lol. I hope your car is fine!
