it is really nice car but seriously, don't pay $14000 though...
offer him like $10000(or even less)...it is good to save your money so that you can mod your car after...like front mounted intercooler. | |

I'm thinking I'll offer 9000 to start
if they say no... then I'll wait a bit and come back with 9500, if they say no again
I'll see for 10 000, but no higher

2 1/4 - 2 1/2 is fine, I might bump my exhaust up to 2 1/2 when I get the exhaust straightened (under axel) and put on a smaller tip. Will reducing the tip from 4.5 " to saaaay 3 make much of a difference? I want more Vrrrrrom and less fart can, although it doesn't compare to most of the awful fart cans in nanaimo I want some more flow with less noise. Also, I gotta start preparing for the street port of half bridge, opening the exhaut for that is going to make it notably louder than now so I gotta make some preparations. Unless someone knows where I can buy a mechanical dump for my exhaust...if I can find a decently priced one I'd put a fairly restrictive exhaust on then use the dump for "track days" also known as "every day the cops aren't around".

Well I found a few but none that are cheap.
They wat 420US$ for this one 
This one would be nice, but impossible to control from inside the car. Which would make it difficult to return the car to a quite state if needed. 118US$ 
This is the cheapest dump I have found (179US$), however it is electrical, which is nice, but I woud think that a mechanical one would be cheaper...  
Anyone know where I could find one?

Cobra buy that 88 instead..Its usually not a good idea to buy a modded car also..Usually means they drove it hard and with a rx7 lots of owners put on full exhaust and intake and dont even bother with fuel mods which means the engines are pretty much dead in most cases..
$10,000 ouch i paid $5,500 for mine..wait and look for a good price..it only took me 4 weeks to find mine | |

don't pay more than 10k...
you should say something like "I HAVE $9000 IN CASH RIGHT NOW!!!!"....so that he may consider selling immmediately.
