Whats up everyone I just became a proud owner of a 1987 RX-7 TII with 120,000 5sp for 1500 bux!! The car needed some things that I have alreadt fixed like turn signals, brakes, alternator, battery, plugs, wires, fuel pump, shifter(wobbly), wiper motors. In doing this work I found that the turbo itslf was seized up. I tore the turbo off and now am looking for suggestions on what to do from here. Should I upgrade or have the stocker rebuit? Looking to get a variety of suggestons seeing that im new to the rotary world and dont know much about them. If anyone has parts for sale im up to take offers and prices. Thanks in advance for anything/everything.

First, welcome to the rotary. *grin*



You'll probably have a lot better luck with TII related questions and prts requests in the 2nd gen forum.



My guess is that you'll be able to find a good used stock turbo and manifold fairly easily, or you could just look at some of the aftermarket kits available out there. I can't help much more, since I've only had N/A rotaries other than the FD.
