I see from your profile your 19?

If so have you looked at insurance yet?

Could be a major factor in your plans.

Thanks.  

One more question, is that wise to  let a Toyota specilist or scooby specilist garage to do some modifications to rx7, such as exhuast system or boost controller things. Thanks a lot.

most the scooby experts i know only specialise in scoobies, or evos if yer thinking TSL ;), but i\'d think any knowledgable garage maybe able to with easy installs but if i were you i\'d go to a rotary expert as many things different & just sticking a big exhaust on a RX7 without ECU mods will lead to dead engine on a rx7 which it wouldn\'t on scoob etc as an example ;)
In other words i wouldn\'t for anything other than very basics & it\'s not worth risking really IMO :D
Was that a query cause you have a scoob or toyota garage you trust already?
