Decided my next car will be a Mazda RX7, but I need some more information like specs, what to look out for when buying and is there an owners club. I'm sure someone on here has a RX7.
Can anyone help?

Yeah it looks alot better, we havent done much to it, its as it came from Re-Amemiya, might put 19" black wheels on it before it goes as those wheels don't really suit it imo

Yeh you've gotta be carefull, rebuilds are a downside to them but its a true racing car and lets face it F1 cars are rebuilt after every race! I wouldn't say it was a car you could use as an everyday car due to fuel consumption and running costs, but a lot of people still do. I only use mine at weekends in the dry and have a little Cinq for everyday stuff, it makes my Rex a lot more special and I enjoy it a lot more, using one everyday would mean getting used to it and then it'd loose its buzz imo.
When buying make sure you've done your research etc, loads of website telling you about things to look out for, personally I wouldn't opt for a single turbo conversion. These are great for 1/4 mile thrashing but on the road they don't drive as well as the sequential turbo set up. The TT's offer 90% of torque from 2500revs and have a steady pull up to 8000!
Something to consider is that the prices go up towards the summer, I was going to wait till April time for mine but when most at the moment have reductions up to £2000 off then I thought it'd be silly to wait.
Start looking at them now then you'll start to get a feel of what they're like, what to look out for and what kind of thing your after. ie; modified or standard.
Any queries drop us a u2u!

Nope twin turbo. Every single part on it is Re-Amemiya inside and out, not a mark on the newly sprayed body, brand new wheels, new engine from a new rx-7, very low milage, engine mint, and currently having re-map with apexi ECU, list goes on..
