Hey all,
Having sat down and reviewed my finances, I can no longer justify keeping my 1992 RX7. Due to lack of job, I very sadly have to put this up for sale, no matter how much it pains me. :(
I bought this car as a keeper having regretted selling my silver RX7 a couple of years ago, but sadly I have no option now.
The Busa has been sold to try and keep the rex, but alas, it’s not enough.
Having bought the car 14 months ago for £4400, I have spent at least another £9000 on it over the last twelve months , pretty much everything listed below has been carried out in that time, except the Alarm, Tracker, RB single Exhaust, PFC and AVCR that were on the car when I bought it.
I had always tried to keep the streetability of the Rex, this is not a track day car that is a nightmare to live with on the road.
The GT35R turbo is arguably one of the best street turbo’s for the rex, boosting from very low down the rev range (full boost by just over 3k) and giving good power output. With the silenced midpipe and RB single exhaust, this is also pretty tame noise wise, on full boost they’ll hear you coming, but you won’t have a headache driving it long distances.
Anything this car has needed has been done, with no expense spared. IMHO the only thing to finish it off would be to lower the car on a set of coilovers, but lack of funds has prevented me doing this.
I have loads of receipts of work done and proof of engine rebuild less than a year ago.
Due to crap selling climate, I am struggling to price the car realistically, and know I am making a big loss. Also, only advertising it of FDUK initially, as I’d really like it to go to a good home within the club.
Looking for £6500ono, and a new owner that is really going to enjoy all the time and money I have put into this.

:wave
Thanks buddy, couldn\'t get these to attach properly.
Slow interest so far so may still be about in a couple of months :( :)
It\'s is lovely good luck with the sale market is very slow ATM
Cheers dude :)
I want it just £2000 short lol
Will you take £5500??
Sorry bud, but I can\'t take less than £6000 for it, as have just bought brand new Federal RS-R tyres for the front so all tyres will be the same on the car.
Was going to update the ad next week after I have had them fitted to the car on Wed.
I took the car down to J at Super Seven a couple of days ago, and he was shocked at the price, and said I could return the car to stock, sell off the parts alone and make more than £6k and have a stock car to keep at the end of it.
That said, I\'ve put so much hard work and money into this, there\'s no way I could bring myself to break it
Quote from: Frankie2531;808279Will you take £5500??
Ok well if you change your mind let me know
CoulD also come and look tomorrow if you wanted ??
Hi, you\'re more than welcome to view the car, but unfortunately I\'m away for the weekend, but will be back on Tues.
£6k is the absolute minimum I will sell the car for though. I have advertised it on pistonheads for £6500 and getting a fair bit of interest.
Thanks
Phil
Ok where abouts are you ?? My folks live in Worthing
In Chessington bud, about 2 miles from junction 9 on the M25.
You around next weekend ??
Wombat dude, you dare go below £6K, with that much work and spec!
Free Bumpage
Yep, can do Sat or Sun, what evers good for you
Quote from: Frankie2531;808369You around next weekend ??
Thanks dude. Deffo £6k is the lowest I will let it go for, especially since I\'ve just thrown another £350 on new RS-R tyres for the front as well.

Ok will be in touch prob be sat if ok ??
Hey Frankie, apologies as dont want to mess you around, there is another chap on FDUK who wanted to leave a deposit on the car to guarantee a first viewing so I gave him my word I would do that for him.
Unfortunately he can\'t make it until Sun am, so if it\'s ok, I\'ll drop you a line Sun lunch time to let you know if the car\'s still available.
Thanks
Phil
No prob hope it goes ok mate thanks for letting me know
Sorry folks, this car has now been sold
