AK Newbie from New Zealand

Hey guys, names Karan.

Just recently purchased my first rotary; an 87' FC3C (Pic on my profile) . It was modified a decent amount by the previous owner, has a front mount intercooler, and a new oil catch tank and an aftermarket computer. It's not perfect got a few issues with overheating and that nauseous fuel/oil smell constantly in the inside, luckily its a vert and its summer!!. I'm also planning a manual conversion as soon as i can get a tranny sorted. When it's time to rebuild I'm thinking about doing a bridgeport. As for myself, I don't know much about cars in general so this car is going to be my start point where i can learn/tinker with stuff. Since the rota/car culture is very rich in NZ rotary meets are quite common along with track days so that is something I will be participating in.

Any help and tips for maintaining rotas will be greatly appreciated as this is very new for me.
