Smile Just bought my RX-7

Hey everyone. I bought a red 91 N/A today. I got it off of Autotrader and it is great. I drove it all day. It is just so different I love it. It has aftermarket wheels, pacesetter header, aerospeed mufflers, open element K&N, stage 1 clutch, lightened flywheel, eibach 1' springs, and I believe he said tokico shocks. It's a blast and the motor is a rebuild with 45K on it. I thank you all for your insight. BTW I fought what is the best oil to use for the car?

p.s. The only downfall is the suspension is stiff as hell and I feel all the cracks.

Also damn the car is loud

Re: Just bought my RX-7

uh, be glad that you can feel everything on the road. It shows that its real performance

Don't use syntheic on the engine; make sure you K&N Gold Filter, if you don't have the money go for mobil 1 and mobil 1 oil.

uh....

Re: Just bought my RX-7

Castrol GTX is what most recommend. If you are in a warm/hot climate go for 20w50. If it's cold/warm go for 10w30. :0

Re: Just bought my RX-7

This one guy told me that you can run 2 cycle oil in a rotary. Is this true? Is it good or bad to run 2 cycle oil in a rotary?

Re: Just bought my RX-7

Well, you can run premix and synthetic but you need to remove the oil injection system. And if you forget to put premix...

Re: Just bought my RX-7

Yesterday I changed the oil and spark plugs. I used the Castrol GTX and I put in NGK spark plugs. I think the next thing I'm going to put on is a set of plug wires and change the coolant. Do any of you use those coolant additives? Do you believe they actually work, because I don't really think they do.
