I'm new to the whole 3rd gen RX7 scene and people keep refering to "reliability mods". I know the 3rd gen RX7's can have some major reliability issues. What can I do to make it more reliable? What specific sort of mods are these "reliablity mods"?



Thanks,

aluminum AST, new radiator, silicon hoses, downpipe.



put your location in your profile so we know where you are from, and good luck with your FD3S

Aluminum AST and the downpipe for sure. If your not having problems with the sequential system then don't mess with the silicone hoses. If you don't know your having problems, then get a boost gauge.

Here you go

Good luck.

i go against the grain, i like the stock ast's, the metal ones corrode around where the radiator cap seats

My friends exploded when he popped the hood to show me his intercooler. Been scared of them ever since.

haha, that sucks was it winter when i happened?



mike

Yup.

hmm ok its time to revise that theory, the asts dont explode here because it doesnt freeze.

eruption occur from failure at the seams and high pressure...
