RX-7 Compression
Hello
TLDR: Not sure if its good compression or any problem. My first time buying RX7 and want to make sure its good.
I want to but R7x and looked up some charts on the compression and what I found is that its good from from 7 to 9. But what I was told this car has and I quote "compression is in the 6s". The guy that I want to buy from is selling it for approx 18 000 dollars. which is little suspicious to me. The car looks good, it has clean history, no crashes recorded, insurance OK. But still the price is almost half of what RX-7 FD3S is especially when he has genuine rocket bunny kit on it, new air filters and cooling from Greddy, Veilside Marriot wheels. I know this is not 8gen . what I found it is 6th gen if I am correct. And dont know if it has different compression or different problems. He also encourages to take it to any local shop to make test or look on car before buy which is transparent from him to hide any problem.
Here is also video how the car runs.
Thank you for your time and for answer in advance if its good buy or not.
