Hi, im the newbie, be gentle with me.
Me and my bud are ready to spend our riches on a couple of RX7\'s, but before we do i have a coupe of questions.
what is the difference between all the different models (type R, R2, RB etc....)?
the cars we will be getting will be on around 40-55,000 miles. is this ok?
i currenty drive a nissan 200sx, and was wondering wether mod cost are similar. how much for a big bore cat back exhaust for example?
apart from the rotor tips, is there any part of the mazda that tends to be a problem.
sorry for all the q\'s.
Minty.

The two stciky threads should have the answers.

Well they would probably be approaching rebuild time, so as long as you are prepared to spend another 3k or so if needed then yes.

The problem is getting hold of parts. Its much easier on a 200SX.

cheers, that helps a lot.
how much room is there for a driver, im a large man, is that gonna be alright?
Depends how you define large. There isnt much room!
Best thing would be to try one out for size. Im 6ft, and whilst its tight I have no problems with it. Some people seem to be constantly moaning however.

I fit my mate who\'s 6ft 6 in all the way from london to Bristol... he wasn\'t THAT uncomfortable. I\'m 6ft 3 myself. It\'s a bit of a bast getting in and an (may buy gullwing doors one day) but I struggle in other cars anyway.. iuts wroth it, just buy them! :D
I\'m 6\'2 and don\'t have any trouble, however my mate is 6\'7 and he cant even get in the drivers side!
i dont moan i just wish they had supplied knee pads so i dont get bruising ;) lol seriously it is compact & all that but i\'m not even guna bother having the seats put further back as was my original plan as it\'s not bad at all with a smaller wheel but as already suggested best bet is to go & have a sit or even better a ride in one :D

i was more worried abour width coz of the ol\' belly!!!
Does a full parts and labour warranty usually cover sorting the rotor seals if they are going?
ahh you\'re the guy from the US forum I told to come here right? (user names FNM there) thought I recognised ya username hehe
There are very few warrenties that will cover a full rebuild... i\'d check the detail out...
where u thinking of buying them from?
Im looking everywhere at the minute.
Im buying 2 RX7\'s, and hoping to part ex the 200sx as well. im not too fussed about the age, but as low mileage as possible is a must.
