My b/f just an RX 7 FC series and I LOVE it. OMG!!! I love the way it sounds. hehe. I would like a FD for myself. But I'm trying to learn all about it well both right now mainly the FC. So I can help him out on it. He's really into cars and I want to learn and have that to share with him. All I know right now is that it has a rotary motor which is pretty obvious, and just stuff like it being naturally aspirated, thats about it. He has this huge book about the RX 7 FCs that shows where everything is how to assemble them how to disassemble them. what tools too use. & today I just learned what kind of clutch he has. It's called a stage 4 unsprung clutch, which is a racing clutch...... So like if you have like a website that has like a lot of useful information or something like that. I would love to have the link. Any help even if I just like ask random questions that I have,like by sending msgs or something. Thanks for reading........ Torque what is it? & what does it have to do with the clutch?

 

Just look in the 2nd gen Faq section.

also, crawl before you walk. the FD is known as the financial disaster, so i would recommend getting to know every bolt of an FC before you even consider an FD.

anything that costs you 200 on the FC will cost you 400 on the FD.

 

It's not a turbo. I forgot to put that on there.

 

torque is a measurement of work. you don't really need to worry about it when it comes to a rotary though!

when it comes down to it, torque is essentially the amount of power that an engine has from a stop to a roll. if an engine has a lot of torque, it can cause drivetrain parts to break. if he has the mazda field service manual (FSM for short), he has about everything that he needs. i have heard of people doing complete rebuilds just off of the chilton's guide to the rx7, but i wouldn't really try it if it were up to me.

any further questions can be answered in a couple of threads here.
