RX7 stuff.

hey how many were made in australia?? In the US I know they become rarer and rarer everyday (due to accidents and such)

[blargonator]

i dont know about australia but in my area there are 3 FCs and one FD. you FD owners are lucky.....sweet twin turbo. anyways im glad i have been getting good information about RX7s from you guys. i am going to the dealer on friday <:-) i bought that super street with all of that information about rotary stuff. both of the FCs are N/A. do they have enough power stock just to mess around like donuts? or is that doughnuts. or not even enough to burn out?

[EP13B]

No probs, im not expert, i have just had mine for a couple of years and do all the work myself (apart from building the motor) so have had to learn

[su_maverick]

If I could do burnouts in an '89 honda accord, you can in a N/A fc. Trust me, a NA is fine for burnouts/donuts/drifts to begin with, its a great car, kudos for getting one, just love it and have fun.

[EP13B]

there are plently around in australia, but i live closer to the city so im sure if you went out country there would be far fewer.


but the rotary is becoming very popular and there has been alot of development in the past few years, we had out first 6 second drag pass the other day and it also ran the first 200+ mph in the world (for rotaries that is) all from a 20B tripple turbo

One thing ive noticed is a lot of the younger people are starting to find out about rx7s (FD mainly) and buying them. Then they start riceing them out and what not. Time have changed for the FD and im not really likeing it.

[su_maverick]

That has been happening since the *movie not to be named* came on the scene. Hopefully with the second one everyone will buy those crap eclipses.

the only think that i dont like..is that they start searching for them because a manga cartoon...because they thin they can be like the characters...i call them TOYS...

[su_maverick]

All I can say is "Darwinism". If some little turd wants to spend daddys money and get an FD and then wrap it around a pole, fine, our species is that much better off and my car's value just went up for being that much rarer.

ya ive noticed that too, but maverick is absoultly right, why do you think supras are still soo expensive ?

[su_maverick]

Saw one today, 94 with 20k miles on it and no mods $26,000 (RX-7)

[blargonator]

it matters what supra you are talking about because the 2JZ can handle a ton of boost so that would be really nice and fast. actually the thing with both the RX-7 and the Supra is they were disontinued a while ago so there is only second hand stuff now and i mean the whole car. people are probably selling those cars like hotcakes or hording them for years to come. yeah i really love FDs stock. the thing about civics is THEY STILL MAKE THEM. a RX-7 is like a bel air. changing a RX-7 is like changing a bel air.

[su_maverick]

Yeah, and from what I have seen from the 8's, the RX-7 will still be top of the heap for a while to come. The Z's, 3ks, 7s, and Supras were the monsters of the 90's and the new generation hasnt really lived up to them yet.
