Hello Everyone

Well i need some advice. I have always wanted a RX7 and have now decided that i'm going to start looking for one in a few months time.

What engine options are there?

I Know the engines need rebuilding, what sort of millage do they usually need this done?

Are there any websites i can have a browse on to find out some more info?

And lastly i need some ideas, so please post pictures of your favourate rx7's....

Thanks

Chris

Nizmos was stunning. Look in his garage for pics and I'm sure he can give you plenty of ownership advice too

I've just sold mine, as it blew the engine on it. Nice cars if you get one thats had a rebuild. Mine was running 400bhp ish







The only engine available is the 1308cc Twin Turbo, although for big power they ditch the twin turbos and go for a single like the bottom pic.

Websites wise

UK owners clubs are:

www.mazdarotaryclub.com
www.fduk.org

US owners clubs

Oh yeah, they're expensive to run and insure. How does 8mpg sound and about 120miles to £65 of petrol (240 if you drive like a granny)
