Well since the 10th AE I was looking at is sold, and I fucked up my clutch, I think I'm just gonna fix up my GXL.



So, is this a good combo???



1986-92 RX-7 (All)

Street/Strip Clutch Disc (Non-Turbo)



and



Lightweight Steel Flywheel

1986-88 RX-7 Non-turbo



Both clutch and flywheel are from racing beat



How does that sound for my 87 GXL? I have a racing beat header I'm gonna put on and I'm gonna take out my rats nest and ac and ps. I'm also thinking about rebuilding and getting a nice streetport. How much reliability is sacraficed with a streetport? Thanks in advance for for the advice.

RB stuff is always good. If you have the money, go for it. Good luck with the flywheel bolt though.. I hear its a real bitch.
