Looking to own a Series 1 Rx8 in the spring. I always like to join the forum for the car I am looking to purchase before I get it, enabling me to learn as much as possible.

I have owned an FC and getting excited to be back behind the wheel of another Rotary. And thank you for welcoming me to the forum!

 

Welcome to the forum, thanks a lot for joining! Seems like you have time to do some research, I'm sure you will find a lot of useful information here. Feel free to ask any questions if needed!

 

Welcome!
If you haven't already, read through this important thread. Cheers !

Thank you for the welcomes and thank you gwilliams6 for the link. I will probably be pouring over that for the next few hours at work :D

 

hi welcome,

The most important thing is for you to do a compression test before you actually buy the car, even if they claim they just put a new engine in. Make sure this is done with a proper rotary tester (might wanna do some research on this).

 

This important point is covered in the new owners thread. Yes a rotary-specific compression test BEFORE purchase is a must !. Otherwise you could be paying thousands to replace a failing engine. Happens too often to new buyers caught up in the thrill of the new purchase.

 

welcome! i'm new here too!
