Enjoy you RX 7. I Bought mine with 41,000 in May 2004. I replaced all the coolant hoses and rubber lines, changed fuel filter, replaced an engine mount, and one strut. Replaced the water pump, switched out the AST tank. These were all needed repairs/upgrades.

great find. i saw their ads online for that 7. i thought it was a bit pricy, but its definitly in good condition. you'll definitly enjoy it. but like many mentioned, do the reliability mods first. and change things that don't last too long, even if nothing's wrong with it, like spark plugs, water pump, fuel filter. keep up the maintanence and ur FD will stay one happy FD.

Since no one else is giving you any actual reliability mods to do, here's a link for some: http://robrobinette.com/reliabiltiy.htm
If you have any questions try searching first so you don't get flamed but if you still have trouble everyone on here is willing to help. Good luck

Edit: Oh yeah. Expect to spend many hours on here researching. It will take a while to learn the basics. Just start here: https://www.rx7club.com/3rd-generation-specific-1993-2002-16/faq-3rd-gen-other-useful-links-68640/

Wow, Thanks for all of the words of wisdom. where to begin... I really sparked a few notes when i said I would replace my rims 1st didnt I? And to njstreetrx7, yes I would sell the rims, The car came with those and the originals, I like the originals better. But eventually I will upgrade the rims with something that suits me. I promise everyone that I will do the reliability mods 1st. I have gotten like 10 PM's instructing me that I better 
Thanks guys/gals for the advice. This is a great forum, everyone is really helpful

Hey, Stephentross, you lucky bastard! 
Congrats, bro. I'm still looking for one myself. Ever since the "Fast & Furious" movies came out the prices of these cars have risen dramatically and they are becoming increasingly hard to find. 
P.S.
My name is Stephen too!

Heh heh,
Adam C. will be with you in just a moment. LOL There not necessary for this car, most of us just keep the car below 3k within a few miles of the house to let any residual heat from spirited runs dwindle off (some even pop the hood) when entering there subdivision) as far as the TT goes they have other features that are nice, but you don't need one.
