Rotary land

Hello everyone in rotary land. Today I am a new member and I wanted to introduce my self and my Doo Doo Brown RX-7. My name is Rich. In 2005 when I returned from my deployment from Iraq. I bought a 1985 GS RX-7 for $1200 off a retired Air Force buddy. Long story short this little gem of mine had been sitting in the owner’s garage for quite a long time. When the owner bought his wife a brand new Mercedes the RX-7 had to go. Since then I have installed Pace Setter headers & exhaust, K&N filter (stock), Ground Control lowering springs, electric fan for the radiator, ICW Racing 17" wheels w/Linlong tires. Currently it has 122k miles on it. I'll post some pics soon. I hope hear from you all and gain a lot good information to keep my Rx7 running and looking good. Still serving in the military (U.S. Army) 29 yrs. Best regards to everyone, Rich
