88 na streetported rx7, Rhode Island
#1
I have an 88 na rebuilt and streetported by rotaryresurrection, the engine still has less than 500 miles on the rebuild along with all the new parts I have put on it.
car is a 2 seater red with gray interior, no cruise control (base model). car has very little rust , only on the bubbles on the sunroof and above the windshield , the only real rust is on a small inner spot on one of the back wheelwells and about the length/size of my smallest finger
Im just seeing what kind of offers I can get for the car. I dont know if I really want to sell it , but if I did the primary reason would be to hold on to the money so I can buy a clean turbo rx7.
Heres a list of whats been done to the car so far. All of the parts/mods , have less than 500 miles on them and are basically like new.
- rebuilt streetported engine by rotary resurrection, has less than 500 miles on it
- centerforce dual friction clutch, racingbeat lightweight flywheel (7lbs lighter than stock), centerforce throwout bearing
- Racing beat header/collector, straight pipe in place of cat, borla dual catback exhaust
- kn intake, all new motor and tranny mounts (competition mazda ones, harder rubber), new oil cooler mounts
- new waterpump, all new belts, new fuel filter, fuel lines, vacuum hoses, cleaned and flow tested injectors,
- all new brake pads and rotors, i did a 5 lug conversion
-all new shifter bushings, tranny/diff flushed and have redline fluids (diff is non-lsd)
- autometer mechanical water temp gauge works great
- removed 5/6 ports, removed all emissions (egr valve airpump, emissions rack), removed bac, removed a/c and power steering, removed interior,have all block off plates on there, tb mod and ported tb, i kept the stock omp
- magnacore 8.5mm spark plug wires
im not sure if theres anything else i forgot.

Now what needs attention, Im being completely honest because I know other people arent. Ive been working on this car for two years and believe me it was a mess when i got it.
- minor front end damage from 15mph, so hood doesnt line up on one side but still shuts , needs bumper to be pulled out on the front passenger side.
- steering has some play to it, maybe tie rod ends or something needs to be tightened
-clutch slave may need replacement, seems like it should shift better than it does at times
- starter is going and needs to be replaced, unless it can be fixed (sometimes works sometimes doesnt) only like 70 dollars from autoparts store
- heat doesnt work, i rerouted the coolant hoses to bypass the heater core
- all the gauges/lights on dash, turn on inside the car when i hit the brakes, and the front markers turn on too
- needs camber/toe alignment on rear driver side, been like that since i bought it, and also one side in the back seems like its lower than the other
- windshield wipers dont stop at the right spot when u shut them off so u have to time it just right
im firm with $2500 , here are some pics and a video link of me going to 3500 rpm , car is located in Providence RI.
I know it sounds like alot of work and problems , but if i may just keep the car. Ive put over 150+ hours of work into this thing and about $5000 total in parts with the price of the car iself, so its well worth the price im asking.

unfortunately i dont have any other pics of the car and im living in georgia while the car is stored in RI, so i cant take any, but if u look closely on the video and pause it you can see the damage to the hood/front bumper where it isnt lining up.
I also have another hood that is unpainted that i can give with the car.
