Thanks for the inspiration.

I am glad someone can get something worth while out of this endeavor, it has been a experience to say the least. I have learned more then I had ever wanted to about my 7. In fact it has gotten to the point that I am debating on 30 ft/lb on the springs lol. If I can give ANY advice at all it would be this, get some books on your ride first. do a little searching, spend the 50~100 dollars on a couple of rx-7 books and read cover to cover, a couple of times. I wasted MANY dollars and MANY hours on stupid mistakes and redo's. If you have ANY questions about anything I have done or considered PM me or shoot me an email. Richardahoward@gmail.com

Time to put this thread to rest, for the last time. Here are the cliff notes in the last three years:

1. sold the 7 to a friend who promptly stripped it for all the parts and sold the body to some kid who was looking to race it. Body was found in junk yard trashed

2. motor went into friend's Porche 914 (which he promptly ran out of coolant and killed it)

3. all the good parts were individually sold off by said friend for booze and gambling money.

4. finished my degree (yay me)

5. got a GF, got married to GF (yay me)

6. bought MR2, hated it, sold it

7. got a job, got fired, got another job, they went under, got a better job, didn't like working there, got another job, loving it now

8. bought 2010 mazdaspeed 3 with 2 miles on it (got over 24k on it now https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR ). love it, but still miss my 79 rx-7. I will more than likely pick up the rotary mantel again some day but for now I will stare longly at rx-7's as they drive by https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png.
