I have a 89 RX7 convertible that I had the engine rebuilt this past summer. I have had the car since 01 and it has been a pleasure.
I envy you your mountain roads there for a place to run a RX7, I was able to run mine up and down the Dragons Tail in Tennessee
once and want to give it ago again now since the rebuild.
Thats fantastic. A buddy and I rebuilt my motor, which was the start of a very long on going restoration. We did a large street port, ceramic coated the housings & irons, as well as replaced all seals. The motor will be a lot of fun!
The car was fun to drive when I first bought it, but she did have quite a few issues. So I went through the suspension; I have a full set of coil overs, all new Polly bushings, large sway bars, deleted the watts-linkage system in the rear. It's been an interesting process.
The shop I used offered three levels of porting beginning at street. I expressed interest in having that done for mine but the builder steered
me to just opening up the breathing, K&N filter, competition header, eliminate the cat converter. I expressed concern about being in
compliance with no cat converter. He more than rightly informed me that it had been a long time since that car was in compliance being
28 years old and we here are not a testing state. Well it seems the cat converter did a lot of the muffling and now it sounds like a sport
bike, Riiip riiiip So now just another gray haired poseur but it feels good while i am doing it and I don't care who sees.
