they are.. aside from the 1985 gsl-se.. its a FI 13B.... but his car is a 2nd gen.

1G fb = 79( or 78?)-85
2G fc = 86-88 (s4) 89-92(s5)
3G fd =93+

good deal man. i was thinkin about porting the piping used for the filter, since it is weirdly tiney, and i will get a new full exhaust. also, what did you mean by putting opil in the gas and some in the motor? what does this do? is it a special oil?? lol. dude, you are the coolest, but i didnt think that having a rotard car with 177000 miles was that bad. its pretty bad, but not fucke it its dead bad. ---- man. do you think i should get a rebuild kit? i was also thinkin about switiching rotors form an 88 since their lighter and higher compression. i know i know i would have to get it balanced and ----, but o well. also, i was thinking about takin that stupid fan off and putting an electrical one on the radiator. lol. o well. thnx for your help man. hopefully it will last me a good while befor it becomes complete ---- motor. that pisses me off.

MMO.. marvel mystery oil.. can be had at walmart... its actually a detergent more than an oil.... its good ----.. it dissolves carbon. rotary motors have carbon issues. the OMP makes the motor burn oil which results in carbon deposits.. well when a chunk of that built up carbon decides to let loose it gets slung around in the motor and usually ***** an apex seal

- having one isnt THAT bad lol.. i'm mostly giving you ---- man but just so you know.. i wouldnt expect the motor to last THAT much longer.. i've heard of then going 200K but not much over that


as far as getting a rebuilt kit... eh i wouldnt rebuild it myself.

- if you decide to switch rotors you WILL have to buy a rebuild kit. whenever you take apart the housings you break teh coolant seals. pretty much any time you take open a rotary you have to atleast replace the coolant and oil seals. and you shouldnt have to have anything balanced

- yeah i forgot an E fan. the ones from a fiero seem to be popular.. but any OEM E fan from any car will work in theory. get one. the clutch fan puts a load on the motor

- dont get pissed... if it pops... but another motor in it... thats how it goes.

fyi a GOOD rebuild isnt cheap

por ejemplo www.pineappleracing.com <-- good but $$ rebuilds

if you want a better alternative check out kevin landers at www.rotaryresurrection.com <-- good work and a nice, knowledgable guy

thanks a million.

my friend had a 88 na rx7. it was pretty fun with a 125 shot but it blew @ 88k miles

kain

that was not very smart. how much nos is mine probobly capable of? like the smallest shot possible? like a 25 shot?

claytonsmith

with that many miles on the motor? none if you want it to run for more than a few days

heh, i drove it today, and it seemed pretty smooth, but not too fast. i guess ill have to unbolt most of the stuff. and get an oil change, and ----. lol. and someother fluid changes.

oh it'll be smooth.. rotarys are increbidly smooth.. and i think they sound awesome with a decent exhaust.. they have a .. eh i dunno .. they just sound like a rotary.. and if you get rid of all the emissions ---- they develop a "rotary skip" which is kinda neat almost... it lopes a little at an idle...

oh and did you know that the top of your third gear .. depending on your rear end ratio is about 100mph and the top of fourth is right at 150....also.. they have this thing calles a DTSS bushing that gives at high speed cornering and allows the rear end to "steer" so dont freak when you feel the rear of the car kick to the side a little during spirited driving :P have fun and get some good tires.. and dont kill yourself

anyway.. enjoy the car
