What do you want to do with it? Cruiser? Autocross? Track?
Vert is a good cruiser, any non turbo RX7 is a good reliable car but not very fast, my brother had a non turbo RX7 and it was setup for Autocross and it handled really good. Made me think my car was screwed up suspension wise, the turn in on his car was uncanny and made my car look like an understeering pig.
Turbo RX7's = big power but just like 930's when you tune them up they will cost money.
The big question is what do you want it for?
I would look for a 1986-88 Non turbo for a cheap Autocross track car.
Or a 1989-1991 Turbo if you want more power, its a little heavier but it has a better engine/turbo setup stock.
The beauty of the Turbo is that if you simply bolt on an exhaust you'll pick up an easy 60HP wich = about 250HP.
Do a few more upgrades like bigger injectors, SAFC and boost controller and you'll see an easy 250 to the wheels.
