I'm curious. How did you come up with that quote? And.. 173k for a 93' isn't bad at all.

I made an edumcated guess based purely on the bodywork, paint and seat cover issues while allowing for a nominal amount to fix a hopefully small engine problem.... Though I would say a rotary not being able to do pretty much the only thing it does well (ie: rev) has the potential to be a pretty big problem. $5k is pretty conservative... Unless you like driving a hooptyass RX7 around... I wouldn't, that's a car you want to be proud of, not driving it with dents and faded up paint.

173k isn't a lot for a 93... But it's a lot for a RX7. My guess is the mileage is that "low" because it hasn't done much moving these past years due to all its issues.

If I'm not mistaken, I know the seller of that transmission quite well... real straight shooter, seen many of his builds and they're never down on quality. Doesn't skimp on anything. Highway cruising is going to be... less fun, but the trade off is up to you

Good news... like everything these days, you don't need math, just Google.

23" tall tire (225-45-15 or 205-50-15)
4.90 final drive (per mFactory)
0.938 5th gear (per ATS)

100km/h = 4200rpm
120km/h = 5100rpm

Mark

So at PR, I was at 7000 rpm's on 21 inch tires before braking for turn 2, that means with this tranny, I would be bouncing on the revlimiter with the same 21 inch tires. Hmmmm...

Honda S2000 Victoria City, Victoria
They are trying to flip on usedvic as well with no mention of rebuild.
http://www.usedvictoria.com/classifi...tible_25984314

Lists the mileage as 65000kms when it is clearly 69926 kms in the video.
Purposely chooses "Clean" title to try and lure in a sucker.

$1500 R32 GTS-T Looks like R32 GTR rims. This has to be worth more than $1500 in parts.

Yup, it's been around and mentioned. Car had a complete paint job, not sure if it was a color change.
