To start this little list my lights had to be replaced along with a new engine because I blew it street racing, but otherwize that's about all. if you treat this car with respect it will love ya back.
This is one great car if you like to go fast or like going to places in style. These cars easily out run a highly modified Honda, my rx7 has won me 1600$ and Counting.
Currently I own 2 rx7's there a fun and easy project for anyone. But it takes a while to find the right rx7, don't, but one at first sight if you do this your looking for trouble. Here are some tips take a ride in the car. Don't buy one over 500,000 miles and make sure there are no body kits attached due to the water gathering in places because of the unique styling of the body. Never judge a car by the paint that's a quick fix. Make sure they use non-synthetic oil and finally no leaks, any leak in an rx7 leads to lots of money and lots of hard maintenance.
The rx7 is a great vehicle responsive turning lots of acceleration and finally a light-weight body will top it all of with one great car for any reason!
Why do you insist on non-synthetic oil. Quality 100% synthetic oil (Mobil 1) is much better then conventional oil in every respect?
Some synthetic is not designed to be burned. The RX-7 adds small amount of crankcase oil to the air-fuel mixture to lubricate the apex seals of the rotors. This oil must burn, or end up as deposits in the engine. Synthetic oil was never designed for this purpose, but regular oil does burn rather well. RX-7s whose oil is changed every 3000 miles last and last and last and last. Synthetic is not needed.
Yes, as long as you keep your fluids at a half decent place (at least above half) and keep an eye on them you will never have to rebuild the engine!
