just thought id drop in and say hello.. so uhmm

hello ive been reading about/ interested in rx7s for a few years....



currently i drive a 91 civic hatch with a ZC swap.... and i;m planning ( if all goes well) to finally get an rx7. front wheel drive is getting boring quick. i found a fb with 75K original miles on it..... thats pretty much it.



im looking forward to my stay

 

Hello! Clayton, is it?

Get the FB!!! It's the best car ever!! (Ok, maybe I'm biased a tad)

But seriously, I don't understand the dilemma? everyone needs the rotary power, some people just don't know it yet!

Check out the first gen forum for everything you ever wanted to know about SA/FB's!

 

Welcome to NP.com. Enjoy.

 

yeah i plan on it... but im a bit leary becasue someone decided it would be a good idea to go apeshit on the pilot bearing with a dremel.. and i;m praying they didnt gouge up the e shaft or anything....

 

Get a different FB then!! UGH!

Is this one special in some other way that warrants a second look? lol

 

haha yeah man its special. for a couple reasons.. it only has 75K on it.... and that appeals to me.. just so i can say " it only has 75K on it." ( yeah im aware that 75k doesnt = good motor)... i can trace the car back to 1986.. because odly enough i found out that it used to belong to my best friends dad.....



oh and lastly it's $600... with the stock port motor in it.. and a SP block ( supposadly has a stuck apex seal?!?!?) it runs but idles high due to someone "removing" ( ie causeing vacum leaks) the rats nest. oh and did i mention.... its $600..





thats the main reason im so focues on this particular car.. cause well.. im poor... a lot poor.. really poor..college sucks but in this case... i can make enough $ selling my turbo parts for my civic in order to buy the FB



so theres that explanation

 

welcome to NP..... hope you find/get an FB soon
