wouldn't it be nice for newbies to read this forum first (esp. the stickies) and then post Qs that haven't already been answered...mmm u fellas have more patience than i. Where r the flamers like in rx7club?
Okay, since there's a request, here's one:
First of, aside from not going through the stickies, TyPinG LikE THiS is annoying and hurts the eyes of general readers in this forum.
Secondly, the greeting of "Hey all RX7 drivers!!!" is hardly a greeting at all. Manners is all important, even if all of us here are behind computer screens.
A car is only as good as how well the owner takes care of it. The reputation of the seven is due in part to the lack of technical expertise even from Mazda reps and dealers during its years of production. This led to many engine blowups and whatnots and less than good news like this, as everyone is all too familliar with, spreads like wildfire.
Granted, the seven does drink and require more attention than most cars but hey, that goes with the territory. Ask any serious seven veteran here and at least half of them would tell you that they rebuild their own engines.
As far as the fuel consumption debate goes, you're getting 280 horses from the engine. That power has to come from somewhere... and ignore the 1.3 litre designation of the 13b. Thats only the volume displaced by a single face of the rotor x 2. A rotor has 3 faces. Go figure.
Go read. There're tonnes of sites from owners from all over and they document their mods rather interestingly.
Cheers
