It only sold for $15,500 for a reason...or reasons. Another color, an ‘R’ model and probably especially if it would have been a 5 speed, another $10,000 even a year ago.

*Montego Blue...if you like that OK. *Touring, meh, OK *Tan interior, not generally desirable *Auto transmission, deal killer for most. Either the seller as sat on the car all these years instead of enjoying it...all the while paying for insurance and hopefully the occasional maintenance. Or...

Just a guess but I bet there were a few plant employees that were reported in terminally ill to work. My thoughts exactly about the nonsense youve been puking out on an otherwise interesting thread. Theres just no excuse for that.

^Obviously someone wreaking of 'American-Privilege'. You've never bathed in the pool of identity politics for half-wits. I also think most cars designed by the Japanese and Koreans over those produced here or even in Europe. Hard to articulate, but their engineering approach tends toward...

I don't think I've posted these here before....

Minimum spec is set out in the Factory Service Manuals. Downloadable versions available from a number of sources on-line. http://wright-here.net/cars/rx7/manuals.html#FSM Not unlike a piston engine, hard seals...apex and side, as well as other internal wear parts like oil control rings and...

Yes I guessed it was an RC car. But.... lol.

OK, I give up. What is the intended purpose of doing an Eiffel Tower chassis? And how much does that weigh?

The article specifies lightweight drive-train. That's good. 3300 lbs. is getting close to being plump IMO...even for 300 bhp (~ 255 whp)

In my experience parts are generally on par with any other 90's era Japanese sportscar. MAZDATRIX isn't a fair comparison IMO. They're as high or higher than a dealership on most things. Still, that's not entirely bad. While the FD was only imported for three years into North America (93-95), it...

Nope....we're all as dead as this forum.

Uh...yeah. Like Chinese food, it's great if you like that kind of stuff. And I've defended engine swaps in other posts. The mods are apparently fine with it, but this is a sub-section of the MAZDA ROTARY FAMILY forum.

Hi Daniel, Welcome. Post a picture of your car and tell us a little about it. Any mods? How long have you had it? It's a daily huh. Seems like it'd be tough to get alot done on those since you can't take it off the road very long. Living north of you, I have forced down-time every winter for my...

There are key reliability mods to the FD, chief among them are cooling. After that, they are no less reliable than most other FORCED INDUCTION, 19 year old cars out there. Owned mine for nearly a decade and have NEVER been left on the side of the road. The difference is buying one, doing all...

Looks like a real "survivor"....an original. Great color too. Personal preference, but I'd try to find a set of original seats for it and maintain it just the way it is. But it's your car, enjoy.

I did wonder if Lady Gaga cleaned them for you. :) I may have missed it, but what did your rotor and main bearings look like? How much chrome flake do you have on the housings?

Have no experience with Woodhouse MAZDA. My car's too old to take to any dealership for work. Most techs are too young to have even seen one in person. As for a good collision/repair ship I recommend here: http://ocrinc.com/ Not the cheapest in town, but one of the most modern and clean shops...

"hi pitched sound on the inside" doesn't tell us much. Exactly where is it coming from? Engine, transmission? Somewhere else? Is it dependent on anything like rpm, braking, idle etc?
