Default Rx-7's

Ok, are they good drift cars?And are they really as expensive and hard to maintain as everybody says,Or is it the fact that they dont know anything about the cars.Cause i have always loved the 2nd gen rx-7's.When i get a car here in a few months its either gonna be an 86 hatch,240sx hatch, or 2nd gen rx-7.But I think i might wanna go with the rx-7.just because i love the way the rotaries work, and plus i could have the possibility of dropping a 20b in it in the future.And that would be bad ass!

yah he put 12g's into it but 4's of those parts are not even installed haha.
and he only put 12g's in cause he was a dicktard sometimes. plus we know boomers not the best driver.

anyways FC's are OK drift cars, they have a bad problem with snap back because of the motor position, and they dont like to go as wide as s chassis. they have gay differentials that are hard to swap, and you need rear toe eliminators! they are pretty cheap, but they need to have new apex seals put in if u want to drift it and it not break. 240SX IS A BETTER 1ST CAR

I like the first gens...I dont remember who it was, but at dday3 that little turboed one was mmmeaaaaaaannnnnn. I would say go with a first gen. my friend has one, pretty much runs off of the shit it collects in the gas tank, but nonetheless its driftable-all like 80 horses of it...
