Hi Gareth,

congrats on joining the club !  Be sure to do a little research on these cars, lots useful info on here.  You would we well off buying a single turbo FD already converted, with a recent rebuild.  Then you have a very fast car nicely modded to save you money in the long term.

Oh, and coming from a Scooby, you will NOT be disappointed !

check out the cars for sale on here http://www.mazdarotaryclub.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=127

Hello and welcome to the club. Must say you have done the right thing getting rid of that scoob:2Confused
There are a few very nice cars for sale on here at the moment and one wide arch (which must be said is very rare)
And your budget of 10k will see you getting a very good example.

Edit; ^lol, beat me to it

Welcome to the club and check out the stickies in this section very useful.
Don\'t buy with your heart buy with your head and sample a few of them, there is a big difference between a good one and a bad one.
All the best with your search.
Oh and if you don\'t know much about the RX yet you can buy mine for £10000 Twin Turbo (so therefore better than just a single turbo as 2 of them) and no rebuild (as rebuilt engines are less reliable) :Giggle

Bargin!

lol - do a search for hurley engineering in this forum !

Crazy Eddie

See that looks nice.
But IMHO that seams quite a lot of money for a \'95 standard engined car.
I have had no dealings with hurley myself (who have rebuilt this car\'s engine) but do a search on here and come to your own conclusion.
For £10k if you do want a powerful car go for the single route or at least try both single and twin to decide which you prefer driving.
Depends what you want it for I guess this 1 looks like it will have all the show so if that\'s what you\'re after happy days:Thumbs-up
Oh and the ABS light is on ????

garethshore

im after both really the show feature ant the power my scooby was the same stood out from the crowd and had the speed will post pic up!!!
 

Crazy Eddie

I\'m a little lost for words :2eek
Well a standard Rx-7 would be as quick actually so that\'s that covered and to make a Rx-7 look anything like that could you not just buy a cheaper one and modify the outside to your own taste for less?

garethshore

lost for words as it looks wank and chavvy or looks differant lol
 
like sed really wouldnt mind a wide arch 1 jus seem to have been lookin for ages now mus have been a good 7 week!!!
 
scooby run 13.2 quarter mile

Never mind the hairdryer powered cars,there are some real good Old School Rx7\'s on the market for a fraction of the cost AND they are better head turners,sexy,good bhp and I have to add.......only real men are able to drive them !!!!!!:D :Thumbsup! :god :Typing
