Buying an RX-7
Alright I have decided on 1993- up twin turbo rotary obviously. I have 25,000 dollars right now I found one for 15,000 in texas that is stock with over 75k miles on it. Good condition. What should I do first I want to put the 10,000 dollars right into it. What are the mods I should do especially ones to push for reliability i.e. radiator, intercoller, hoses, etc.... also how much is an engine rebuild?
I am looking for an all around car, I know the handling is amazing on this car. I want good low end and top end. I am a crazy bastard that goes 160mph when I get the chance. I am an idiot I know!!! But I want to know what is gonna make me competitive against a MKIV supra TT, or should I just buy one of those. I know the tranny on an FD is good up to 600 horsepower and with an added rotor the numbers are high for the engine as far as reliability. The supra's bottom end handles around 900hp stock and the 6-speed handles anything you throw at it. Both are beautiful cars, I believe in the RX-7 due to price differences. I always believe in the big "IF" I can get an RX-7 for 10,000 dollars cheaper I will throw that into the car and be a very competitive street car. Some extra notes: This car will be used as a weekend driver and fun car not near a daily driver. Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks guys!!
