[CivicEX7777777]

Well ive come to the conclusion that i like these cars and may look into getting one in the future, just wanting to some pros and cons about them, any and all feedback and comments are appreciated, like what model to look for what to check when buying the car etc also is there an aftermarket for these cars ive looked a lil and havnt found a lot yet but well see.

Thanks

i've got a spare 12a core (good compression, 3k miles on the rebuild, according to seller, i haven't tested it out at all) a RB style header, spare nikki carb and intake (stock type), lightweight flywheel and a used ACT 4-puck clutch and pressure plate, if you do find an rx7. I love the first gens, but have too many vehicles already. I'm not going to put this stuff in my truck after all, it's going up for sale.

just saying. You should find one, and then buy my stuff. =D

oh.. and find one that ran fine but "just won't start" because it's probably flooded, super-easy fix. That's the most common thing I've seen on these cars.. gotta run them until they warm up, even if you're just moving it from parking spot to parking spot. If the problem is more serious.. I have a spare motor for you.

Unless it's a GSL-SE (which came out in 84-85 only), you'll have a near impossible time finding aftermarket wheels. 4X110 is the bolt pattern. So, if you dont like the wheels on there dont buy the car.

Oh, a rotary is SOOOOO good on gas too. Although, the 12a's (carbed) were alot better than the 13b's (FI).
