Re: Buying Rx-7
well man, to be honest, i would say it would be better to get a n/a for a first timer in the rx7 category just caz i jumped in and got a TII and man i didnt know shit bout the car and it was a nightmare when something went wrong on this thing. i mean do get me wrong the TII is a basass car....i luv it, in the process of rebuilding mine, but the n/a is just more reliable.

Re: Buying Rx-7
yea i was starting to think more towards the n/a because of the reliability. how are they for modding, can i get much horsepower with bolt ons? how many km are n/a known for? is 160 000 too much?

and yes the 89-91's are 160 the extra 1000 rpms and 14hp makes a difference. torque is the same between both engines
