So I've been having trouble with starting my car on and off again, until I noticed... that I have no starter bolts and it only makes contact when it wants to. So I definitely need some starter bolts but no one knows what the damn size is and where the hell I can get em. Please let me know if you know.

Although finding a few rx7s in a junkyard in CA was easy, it's difficult here in Craphole, New Mexico. Any other suggestions?

Well I guess I'll go to the dealer. Are there such things as auto parts stores with competent people?

actually i know 2 here in sac one is an autozone but i know everyone there and they all work on their cars and the other is FPS (foreign parts specialty) i like FPS better for the quality of the part

I think they're 10mm 1.25 pitch, can't remember if they are the same length or not tho, 4" or 5", its been a while since I did a starter on a 2nd gen...



10mm indicates the bolt size FYI, not the size wrench/socket one would use to remove it, you'll come back from the hardware store pissed! : )
