May Be pickin up a 1st Gen RX7...

I may be CoBuying an RX7 soon. The thing is Preped For CSP, but it was originally a Spec RX7 car (road racing). Me and my friend may buy it so we can get our race license. Needs new rubber, pads and rotors, and for it to be legal for Spec RX7 again we'll need to find a 12A engine (it has a 13B in it now) and we'll need to update the seat (Its nolonger an SCCA Club Racing approved seat due to age). But other wise its all good (Could use some paint and body work, but hey Thats what stickers are for).


Hers the car as it sits now


It sits on a set of panasport 13X8s...

If you pretend that cars are moving cones, then the roads become your personal autocross course.

I live my life 1 cone at a time, for those 70 seconds or less, I'm free

Oh, its smoke...... They run 2 stroke Mix through it. They were having a little trouble with the carburetor earlier in the year, but I'm pretty sure they figured it out.



Rustoleum??...... have we been reading Sportscar magazine lately??? (10 ways to go raceing for under 10 Grand?)

Green Civic is an unknown quantity at this point
My friends dad had a preped rx-7. Actually, he still has it. He won a few championships with it. A good car. Paint costs money. You dont need to paint it unless its rusting.

btw, good choice. Hope everything works out.

The price is the best part.... $1500 for an almost race ready car.

Not really a fan of that body style of RX7. I'd prefer an FC if I were able to get my hands on one. Even a Turbo II. *uNF*
