see my post about reliability. I have seen numerous RX7’s up into the 200k+ even while being thrashed and beat to hell. It comes down to knowing the engine and taking care of it. Mine was up around 150k and when i pulled the motor to do body work i checked compression and it was 110-110-110 on the rear and 120-120-120 on the front… practicaly perfect. And anyone who knows me, knows that I am not easy on my cars. I dont race them every day, but i have a heavy foot.

Im not saying they cant be driven and get quite a lot of miles on them before going bad yes its all in how theyre taken care of…

but regardless performance upgrages on a rotary with stock apex seals with any miles on them is kinda nerve wrecking
