Good advice there, much appreciated, the low miler had a comp Test on Monday and came back with high 7\'s across the board, probably doesn\'t say a lot about water seals but still a good reading. How good is the rx7 auto box in comparison to say a supra auto box? Is it fast shifting or a little lazy?

Realistically no more than £5.5k, will be able to stretch a little more in a few months but hoping there\'s no need. I have spotted a montego blue touring on eBay with sub 20k and all history from back in Japan. Not a big fan of the wheels but a set of standard ones shouldn\'t be too hard to come by. It\'s been there for a while and am tempted to take a look, maybe not the best grounds to mod? But really i am not intrested in going single again, really just want a clean example with maybe and exhaust, filters and a pfc.

Im looking to get back into an rx7 and want opinions on what is best, an original unmolested standard sub 25k Rex with loads of history or a higher mile car but with a fresh engine done by a reputable garage? Thanks in advance.

Mail me a price please,

Thanks for all the kind advice, I\'m going to pick an engine up on Friday with suspected side seal failure, and will get it stripped down and see what I find, fingers crossed no tip failure.
This is going to be a reasonably long term thing As I will be setting money back each month to buy the seal kit and then the car itself and what ever extra\'s I will buy. This has to be set to a budget and will be unlike my last build which was a supra I rebuilt and single\'d. So from what you have all said I\'m fairly confident I could have a go at it.  One thing is for sure I am keeping this one standard apart from a street port and some breathing mods.
My rx7 was the most reliable and fun car I have owned BEFORE I went single. After that it was a nightmare. So the key is keep it simple and reliable. Roughly what is the time to switch and engine in an rx7 once I have the rebuilt one ready to go?

Thinking seriously about buying another Rex, either no engine or one in need of a rebuild. My question is would you or have you had a go yourself and had good results. I need a project and a reasonably cheap one that I can put evenings and weekends into, the engine wouldn\'t be skimped on, but things like tucking and hiding looms would be high on the agender which lets face it doesn\'t cost an awful lot.

Pretty much, Steering wheel also. There is disks on the car...

I still have brakes,Gearbox,Diff, Prop but will cost extra.

what would be the cost of the complete car minus engine?

So what is missing exactly?? Complete engine, gear box, prop etc? Exhaust? Brakes? Loom? Ecu?
Cheers
