about to buy my first !!!

[dreamers]

Ok thanks. That sounds good (I think). Will call reworx tomorrow. Why is it buying this rx7 seems like the biggest decision of my life?!

Is it worth getting it RAC\'d/AA inspected? Or do they know next to nowt about rx7s.

If your thinking of getting it AA/Rac inspected to be quite honist you would be better taking it to Reworx and get them to check it over, As you say This is not some thing the AA/Rac would know alot about.

If you get some one that knows about Rx7\'ns and has owned them in both stock and tuned versions they can tell you quite easy if its mechanicly good or not by driving it. I\'d say you need to talk to Reworx.

Thanks - I will call them 2mrrw. I hope they are honest!!

those numbers are a bit low for a supposedly rebuilt engine....and reworx will tell you that the numbers are all fine and well within mazda specification.....but thats not the point...as chris said, for static compression figures, Id be hoping for low 8s.
do you use msn btw?

[Grizzly]

Yes but it has been known for a good engine to give poor figures when its been driven Conservatively for a long period of time (Like when its been run in) I\'d say by looking at the figures and knowing Reworx Reputation i\'d say it wanted a good Thrashing before it was Comp tested, i\'d bet its suffering a bit of Carbon Build up around the seals.

TBH it does\'nt add up, if its a 3k Engine thats been done by Reworx as you say it should be higher than that and i know from Experiance its possable to drop your Compresion if you Drive off boost for along time, so i\'d guess it must have been done not to long after the Run in.
