I cant believe no one sugested a compression check yet, but tis ok, since $1200 is a good deal for a running 100% stock with all parts N/A. Good luck, dude!
IF you need it, a rebuild will cost less if you do it yourself: $1000 for NEW rotorhousings, and about $500 for a rebuild kit for the S4 N/A. Well, and renting a few tools/ upgrading a few parts wont cost THAT much, and you would need to do it later anyway, so really, no loss at all.
Also, please remember, the RX-7 is a PROPER sports car, don't expect Honda Civic availability, parts cost, and everything to be that easy. Well, you DID own a maverick, so it's kinda like that, but much cooler, and oh yeah, MUCHO faster!

go to the lounge and you can test that....on second thought it would be a nice change for a newbie to actually stay longer than a week, it's probably best to wait a bit before you venture in there....if you do go I have one piece of advice....bring lots of lube...
