Very cool, I will have some pics up tomorrow, car drove great on the way home, the tack would cut out everytime I would let off the gas. By the time I got home it has completely cut out. Car runs, idles and drives great.
The clutch went in no probs, then we had a problem with the fuel pump which we eventually gave up on tracing down and hard wired it to the ignition.
I swaped all the lock cylinders and the drivers side door handle is still jacked, no time for the stereo, man I am not looking forward to tracking down this tach issue
I am hoping someone has had a similar problem and can give me some ideas as to where I should start.
Other than the tach everything seems to be great, I am very happy. The car blew a little smoke on the first few runs, I am hoping that will clear out since it has been sitting so long. It runs great so I am not too concerned.
More pics tomorrow after a wash and wax job, got greasy handprints all over..
Oh yea I wanted to add one more thing, bought the fancy pilot bearing removal tool to remove the pilot bearing... well the ******* that put the clutch in did no put one in, so that was a big **** up!

Well if I went east coast it would be the Va beach area....
if I went West coast it would be Laguna Nigel....
I know there is some RX7 clubs and stuff in Va Beach...
I have seen a few of them running around Laguna Nigel also....
Just not sure which i would rather be at...
But the midwest sucks!

Here is Phinsup, dirty as all hell. I think that was a white shirt.
He sure as hell taught me a lot about my seven! B)
