Buying Rx7 (What Do I Need To Know?)

[mparnelly]

Hey guys, i'm fairly familiar with cars in general but mostly Toyota Supra's (MKIV)'s. Anyways i was wondering if there are any specific PARTS on a 3rd Gen Rx7 (1993+ I think?). Two Arrive here in March and are going for $14,000 a peice, I believe both have roughly 460 hp. Anyways enough blabbing, my question is "Is There any specific parts that i need to look at besides the regular stuff?" Clutch Plates etc. I've been very interested in this car for a couple years now, and am very excited to buy one considering how rare and beautiful they are. Just thought i'd get some idea's what to look out for. Thx

Ok...

Try an get one with a downpipe, intake an ast tank saves alot of heache.

anything above 70k miles means he's trying to unload before a rebuild BE CAREFULL! Make sure it has a rebuild if it doesn't low ball him because rebuilds cost upwards of 3000$!

2 out of three i bought needed rebuilds immediately! 70k on one, and 110k on another.
