Hi from Norway!

Thanks! Haha, I bet! Actually haven't driven it on the ice/snow yet. Transported it on a hanger from Stavanger, which is on the west coast of Norway, to Oslo (east Norway). About 8 hours to drive each way.

In Norway you need to have your car go through a basic check every 2 years, and on the last test before I bought it it had a few minor things that needed to be fixed. (That's partly why the previous owner couldn't sell it and it ended up going fairly cheap to me)
The battery wasn't properly attached, one of the headlights needed some adjustment as it got stuck when popping up some times, and a couple of bushings needed to be replaced. So I'm going to fix those things, alongside changing the sparkplugs, oil, coolant etc. this weekend when I get the car into a garage/workshop a friend of mine has and get it approved and ready for the summer

It also only has summertires, so would be crazy to drive it right now

Doubt this baby will see much snow while I own it the next 100 years to come.

I've only started it and let it warm up for a few minutes a few times, and the idle seems perfect, started every time even in several minus degrees C. The guy who helped me transport it looked over it before i bought it as well, he has tons of experience with Rx-7's. Owns a couple himself and is working on a 4-rotor project right now as well!
