i hear people complaining about the rotary all the time. when i first got one i was a little worried until i did my RESEARCH. and as long as you take care of it, it will take care of you. thats why i dumped money into the engine to get it going right and safely, especially since it has had a few previous owners. i drove it today and will probably drive it the rest of the week. its a good feeling to drive a rx7. no complaints here. the only other thing im gonna do is get a fan temp switch.
