i only know 2 things about rx7's



1. in a 1st gen if you dont have ac OR the battery hold down, the battery can fall off the tray and short out on the brake line, holes in the brake lines are bad



2. if its jacobs, its bad.

Then that means I should figure out how to hold the battery down on my 1st gen. I don't want to have to spend any more money on it than I need to.

as an addenum to #1 if you dont have a battery hold down on a 2nd gen it can hit the belt or the p/s pump or numerous other things and turn off your car.







that was a fun experience, no.
