Thinking of getting it straight in for a service to get oil and filters done and maybe a compression test done.....but i have no idea how much any of this will cost.

Bit worried about the Induction kit thats on there as this has come straight from japan.

it\'s a 1992 in a colour i aint seen before, it also has a clutch like somones wedged a brick behind it, and the biting point is next to nothing...your either on or off! thats gonna  take some getting used to.
Is it a big job getting the clutch changed?(aparently its some high performance 1).

whats the place near reading that specializes in rx7\'s as it looks to be the closest place for me being in Swindon.

Ok, so by induction kit your are talking about the filters/pipes?

And by japan, you really mean no filters/pipes :D

sounds like you have a paddle clutch it bites better !

you can do thie oil and filter change you self its quite easy. but if you get it done by a garage prob charge about £20

What color have you got ? is it standard?

12.7 on stock twins @ 1 bar (i reckon i can do better!)

It\'s called Montego blue, its a standard RX7 colour for all markets. I think the JDM cars had a bit more a of a flip in the paint than the UK cars though.

Here we go then, picked the car up yesterday despite being very i\'ll, made for a horrid drive.





Anyone know what Induction kit that is? :confused:

That filter looks like a Trust/Greddy one... hard to tell though :)

My problem now is insurance...

Im on a classic car thing which gets me covered fully comp for £930 quid, problem is i need to down as a second driver on another vehicle, currantly im ok as i still have my 106 which is still insured untill i sell it.

I need another car to put my name to..

are those standard wheels or not.... beggining to think not. only 16\'s though.

[edit] couple more pics..



Wobbz

No i dont think they are teh factory wheels (the factory wheels are 16\')... although those are very similar :)

Nice car mate:D

those wheels are not standard but Insurance company don\'t know that. Induction is a re-amemiya kit. The more I see that colour rx7 the more I love it.

never heard of um.

bah, im never gonna get used to this clutch...

Wobbz

Get a new one then!

How much modification you plan to do to that thing? I\'m betting a big solid single plate will do... possibly a twin...
