I sold my 95 240SX SE. I hated to see it go, but I could not do the swap(RB25DET) I wanted to so I sold it. I now am the proud owner of a 93 RX7 R1. The RX7 has a new engine and new turbo's, both new from local dealer(The guy gave me the receipts). So let me know what you think, was it the right thing to do?

I plan on getting a S13 soon as a daily driver, as soon as I can save up the cash. For now the RX7 is my daily driver. I hope to have a S13 withen a month. Gas in the RX7 is going to kill me(18-20 MPG).

I always liked the rx7's but i would only own one as a second car, they have too may problems for a daily driver imo. Got any pics? What color, condition, etc.

It is black, with black interior, and blacked out windows. It's in great condition and it's a 5sp. I heard about the probs with them so I had planned on getting an s13 soon. I guess When I get my S13 I will save for an S13 SR. That way I don't feal like I am driving a granny car. Just kidding. I will post some pics as soon as it clears up around here It rained all day.

thats because the rotary works differently than a piston engine. if you calculate the displacement like a 4 stroke engine (mazda calculates it like a 2 stroke) it comes out to 2.6L

1.3 litres per rotor = 2.6 liter motor.

Damn Rx-7 are sweet, I would buy one in a second if I had the money, but I wouldn't wanna get rid of my 240 or civic. My High school principal has one, coolest guy ever, I actually asked him to race once just to see how badly I would get raped, but he had no idea what a 240sx was, and though it was really fast and that I was just being modest. Damn that's a sweet-*** car, post some pics dude.
