Well this is simple. I am new, but have had the 3rd gen been my dream car since i was about 11 years old. I'll have about 10 grand by april. I want to get a 3rd gen but be able have a nice reliable engine, but have a decent amount of mods, or whatever you suggest... Just tell me what i can with 10 grand...

10grand? That is alot of lap dances!!





Bascially for 10k I would go single turbo. That is relaible enough for me

do you have an FD yet? if not, you should be able to find one with a blown engine, maybe even one without one. get a reman with rebuilt with a streetport for ~10k

No I do not have one yet. I remember seeing several FD's for about 4 grand with several mods, just no engines. With that i'm sure there's lots of options, I just don't know how often I can find one like that for 4 grand.

put a deposit on a house, rent it out, watch the cash flow in and build a really nice FD https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

Give me 5k and I will help you spend the rest.

I would by a fd that is in very good condition with no engine in it. Then all you have to do is by a reman and have a port job done to it, then if you still have money witch you should you could go single. The key is to be patient, good luck.

Yea exactly. What I need to do is get in contact with people around the Northern Virginia area and learn as much as possible. I really need to know how possible it really is to find hopefully a 93 or preferably 94 FD with some aftermarket parts (either suspension, looks or engine) in good shape all around with no engine for about 3-5 grand. Anyone around the Northern Virginia Area looking to help someone over the next 5 months would be awesome. Heres my AIM: blahblah38492 and my e-mail deviantrapture@hotmail.com

Also another thing.. i'm looking to learn more first.. i only know more on history of the RX-7 than specifics... if that helps

What do people here not help newcomers anymore?

About every 100K the engine goes and about 10K to 20K later the turbos go also. try to get a low milage car around 50K to 60K.

Look for cars with a downpipe and ungraded AL radiator.



I would spend buy



lowering springs new coil overs with stiffer sway bars.

about $2K

this mod takes the rx-7 from being a great car to a race level



Anytype of larger intercooler

$1k to 1.8K

stock intercooler just way to small + extra HP + prevents detonation





Silicon hose job $500 to 900

go to rxforyour7.com for the hoses $65

prevent twin turbo trouble before it starts





HKS CDI ignition $450 to 550

pass emission without a worry + increase HP, MPG





short shifter $200

prevents 5th synchro grinding







the rest save or do what you want until the engine goes.







go to rx-7store.net they have good prices
