Disaster 7 Restoration

Post by Arcolithe »

Ey there, I'm an asian german called Wataru from Miami, Florida.

Got my first rx7 for $800 last year october as a project, been restoring it since. Should have junked it and started with a better car, but it's my first so it will pay off in learning experience.

Had someone rebuild the 12A in it, aftermarket holley carb and emission delete on it. Now going through the wonderful experience of suspension upgraded.

Also switched out the complete rear differential because one of the axles on the other one was slightly bent from a pothole.




Bought a set of polyurethane bushings from energysuspension as moog inner+outer tie rod ends. Will be tackling this wednesday hopefully. Any suggestions as this is my first time doing tie rod/full bushing swap? Already changed out a few like sway bar bushings and the easy bolt ons (as well as the watts link - which popped out fairly easily)

Sorry for late responses, full time student and part time worker =)

I like the 'Ey There'.
Sounds very South Yorkshire where I come from.
You're very welcome.

I had to change a diff as well a good bit back.....this was a failed inner bearing. Dunno why 'cos I nurse my cars.
