Does the car surge at idle or just while cruising? Is it a light surge or more of a "buck"? Have you replaced the fuel filter lately? How old is the gas in the tank? Original cat still on the car?
Sorry to ask so many questions but it can be numerous different things. If it is bucking, usually, the best way to eliminate it is to continue to drive it while performing maintenance. I would start with the fuel filter and replacing or eliminating the catalytic converters. Some of my cars have bucked but usually only after they have sat for years.
If it is surging at idle as well, it could be a vacuum leak or a bad TPS.
RX7Club.com is a great place to learn but prepare to be practically banned if you ever ask a question that has ever been asked before. Especially if you did not search through previous threads first.

Most of the bucking issues I have ever had were really just during deacceleration. It is a kinda common problem for FCs. Definitely try the fuel filter and see how that works for you. If it doesn't do the job we will try some other things.
BTW: You dont have to worry about the banstick on this site ask any question you want and we will try to help out the best we can. I just thought I would warn you about RX7Club.com. Those guys are pretty harsh towards new guys.
