I'm looking to purchase a 1986 RX7. It has power everything, but needs an engine rebuild. I can get one done for 450 american. Is it worth my time?
A few more Questions.... Do Rx7's have redlines? If not, when do they stop pulling? Whats the top speed for a stock 5 speed 86 rx7 (naturaully aspired) Do Rx7's have posi's/lsd's (limited slip differentials) and finally, what cars can they hang with stock? |
if you can a rebuild for $450 that is VERY cheap....
rotaries have redlines. they are clearance only so far...... if you rev a stock engine to 20k rpm the rotors will start hitting the housings, etc ,etc a 5 speed n/a can go about 135-140mph top speed certain models came with LSD . are you in canada. if so its a little different. N/A's are not fast by any means.... they handle well, stop well, a hooked up civic could beat a N/A rx7. if your looking for speed go for a Turbo II... https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png |
yeah a slightly modified TII is a real fast car
|
how many RPM's can you take a stock RX7?
|
depends on which engine it is. older ones have 7000rpm factory redline, newer ones have 8000rpm redline
|
I like my N/A, tach goes to 9000, never been above 84-8500, I like to baby the car =)
|
rev limiter is 8400-8500 rpm i believe. i have hit it more than one occasion on my old GTU.... just wanted to keep going https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

I would be skeptical of any rebuild costing only $450.00
