FWD cars are for real men.

I guess it's just what different people like. V8s do nothing for me, the LS1s I've seen in RX7s look like a nice install. But personaly I'd keep the rotary.

only bad thing is the electrical connectors! my unkle had the boot & lights go on fire on him due to the connectors, same as the one by the mini headlanps, they corrode &are shit! im more handy with a soldering iron than i am with a spanner, the car does (did) have alot of electrical gremlins, but getting ontop of them slowly and surely, modernising the loom as i go :) its had atleast 2 electrical fires in its life already as far as i can tell from various bits of loom i have came across and replaced. turbo 16v k-series 11.9@118.9 :)

a 13b with a big single is the sex, get rid of teh TT vacum hoses, power steering, air con and emissions crap and its a joy to work on with the extra room and a frighteningly fierce engine. yet to drive a 3 or 4 rotor motor :( turbo 16v k-series 11.9@118.9 :)

Do all rx7s have rear seats and can anyone actully fit in them? lol they just look like holes in a parcel shelf. The seats if you want to call them that are rediculously small.. no room for anyones legs... so possibly good for midgets LOL I think the UK cars have storage bins instead... a much better idea if you ask me... I love my RX daily driver, such a smooth delivery of power with the sequential twins and with simple mods your quicker than most things on the road... although they do like to drink
