First time rotary owner - excited

Hey everyone,

Name is Z and I'm glad to be here- hopefully I can be an active member and give some of my mechanical skills and learn from others.

A little bit about me, been working with vehicles for 15 years, active duty and work on all sorts of vehicles and equipment. Been a race mechanic for car and driver 350z/pit crew. Currently in Germany.

Not sure about the previous owners History on this car but I am currently in the process of trying to resolve an issue with stalling at idle. Recently got my new starter and can now start the car back up when at operating temperature. Thanks so far for everyone's post that has helped me so far.



Sorry for the dirty pictures- was working on some body work with my Subaru.

Welcome,

Thanks for welcoming. There is a great variety of information here and hope to be able to put some in when I start working on mine. Right now an engine light For an air solenoid and 02 sensor needs my attention. Luckily I found an rx8 in the junk yard. 60k kilometers blown oil seals (oil in intake and intake. Good for parts and only $140. Was thinking of getting the transmission but not sure if it's worth it.
