i shall make a list... ;)

1.Battery is draining even though the alternator is charging fine
2.struggling to start and doesn't start nicely
3.engine isn't running very smooth at the moment
4.blow in the manifold and the exhaust bracket has sheared

All this happened in the space of a week so i have a busy few weekends ahead of me... haha!

oh and
5. something is up with the gearbox, sometimes it gets stuck in reverse (when you reverse obviously) and the cross over from 1 & 2 to 3 & 4 is really stiff and sometimes gets stuck, very strange

Rx7 will be bought one day.

Up the boost, make lots of horsepower and wait for it to blow up XD. No way around it they're not hugely reliable unless you get a Bridgeport engine!! They're good

Make sure you keep the oil topped up! They drink it faster than petrol!

You 'will' need them in the future if you intend to keep a classic car. Worth getting a better pair as the cheapo cheap ones are useless!!! You could always go in to a halfrauds and have a look at them though?
