so i have an 86 base that i got a month ago for free from my uncle and so far ive put 3 grand into... i go ahead and take off my 4 lug and am looking for a 5 lug assembly... i send zerorx7 $260 for the assemblies and they never came... so i got jacked... so im looking around and i find a guy in my town with a mind condition '90 rx7 with a blown motor for $400. i mean its perfect... and its got a full new $600 exhuast system, lsd rear end... i mean if you saw it... damn. but ill be using dash parts, exhuast, and hub assemblies from it to go on my car... and im parting the '90 out real soon and really cheap too i dont havea driveway big enough to keep it sitting in (and no, no one is gettin the tailights there goin on mine)... if anyone needs anything from the '90 let me know. i live in Georgia

i need a hood, front bumper, and front fenders for my 91 so if you could either post the price here or pm me that would be great! i live in socal so the shipping will probably be too expensive. but i may still look into it.

i dont want to put all my stuff into the 90 becuase in the coarse of a month i have put 3 grand into the 86... full crazy stereo system and head unit, custom guages, new rear carpet, junked all emmissions bullshit, fixed all the electrical problems/wiring/relays/computer/ new fuel pump/ filter/injectors (sat for 3 years) brand spankin new drilled/slotted/ rotors converted rear to vented disks, new calipers, pads... stage 3 clutch/short throw shifter/ did body work out the *******/ shaved 3rd brake light.. and the 86 has a power moon roof... the reason i dont want to put everything into the 90 is becuase my 86 basically looks like a 90 now... and i only need a few things from it... the tranny (reverse sticks a little in the 86) and those trainge vents that are always broken in the dash, front carpet, the 90 has a full racing beat exhuast that i want to use and the 5 lug hub assemblies to finish converting the 86 cuase i have a baaaaddd asssss set of deep dish rims that will go on it... plus not to mention i dont know how bad the wiring is the 90 and dont feel like fixing wiring **** again... that took forever, plus id rather keep the port valve intake setup from the 86 since it runs off exhuast back pressure and not the air pump like in the s5's... since im gutting out the air pump ****......all in all ive done waaay to much work to 86 to tear it apart again. oh and ill let that motor go for like 120 full motor with intake and exhuast manifold and like 70 for just bare block... i think it has a coolant seal leak... i dunno guy said it smoked a little... so he took it out and never fixed it... and front bumper from 86 will be 20 bucks its in great shape paint good, s5 bumper will be 40 bucks and for 2 fenders (i have 2 sets) will be 60 bucks or 35 a piece... doors will be 50 bucks a peice.. there in great shape... rear bumpers will be 20 bucks... (im planning on getting gps body kit and wide body soon so im parting out body panels on both) pm me if you want somethin
