Up for sale is my 1991 Mazda RX7 Turbo II that I used as a track car. As you can tell from the VIN, this was not originally a Turbo car, but was a 1991 N/A Coupe. The original Turbo donor car was wrecked, and this chassis was the recipient. Everything was swapped off the Turbo car onto this car. So the most important pieces everyone will ask about is the rear diff and the suspension, and yes, it is all S5 Turbo drive train, suspension, everything.

Here is what I have done to the car:

  • Manual Steering Rack
  • KYB Adjustable Shocks
  • Eibach Springs
  • 5mm Front Floating Wheel Spacer
  • 20mm Rear Bolt On Wheel Spacer
  • Earls Braided Brake Lines
  • 3" Down Pipe (I think it might be Racing Beat)
  • 3" Exhaust (brand unknown, it is all bolt on though, so it is RX7 specific, has a removable silencer)
  • HKS Blow Off Valve
  • HKS Top Mount Intercooler
  • HKS Air Intake
  • Samco Radiator Hoses
  • Koyo Radiator
  • Turbo Inlet is all new couplers
  • Intercooler Inlet is all new couplers
  • Intake coupler out of intercooler is a genuine HKS coupler

  • RTEK Stage 2.0 N370 ECU- Programmable Fuel and Timing Maps- Currently Configured for 550 Primary and 720 Secondary Injectors: Data-logging/Tuning Cable and Palm Zire 71 Also Included (not pictured)
  • Wideband Controller Installed and Wired to RTEK for Data-logging.
  • Interior Removed, All Stock Wiring Still Present.
  • Recaro Drivers Seat Installed
  • Shifter Has All New Bushings and Gaskets
  • Clutch is a Stage 2 Exedy
  • Racing Beat Lightweight Flywheel
  • Walbro Fuel Pump (Hot Side Is Wired Directly To Battery with Large Gauge Wire and Turned On Via Relay)
  • Hankook Evo V12 Tires 225/50/16
  • S4 N/A Gauge Cluster Wired In (I like the brighter orange of the S4, but I do not have a S5 cluster to put back in it)
  • Probably forgetting other stuff
So, everyone always has a story to tell of why they are selling their RX7, here is mine.

I took this car to the Harris Hill Raceway track days every once in a while when I lived in Texas. My wife who is in the Air Force got orders to North Bay Ontario Canada, so I had the car shipped (along with 3 of my other RX7's) to Pennsylvania where her parents live. On our way up here to Canada, we stayed in Pennsylvania for a couple of weeks, and I would take the car out on the mountain roads. The last day I drove it, I ran it out of gas, had my wife bring me a 5 gallon jug of gas on the side of the road, and drove it back to where we stored it. (it ran fine). After getting settled here in Canada, we went back down for Christmas, and while there, I started all the cars to let them run a bit, but this one gave me problems. It would start and idle, but as soon as you touch the throttle, it bogs and dies. I brought it up here with me to Canada to work on it, and as far as I have gotten with it is make sure the fuel pump and relays are working. I suspect that the fuel lines, fuel filter, or injectors have junk in them from letting the tank run empty. As my other project (Supercharged 13B powered 1989 GTUs) has taken precedence, I simply do not have the time or motivation to work on this one, as I don't have tracks around me to run it anyway. 

If you have any questions, please let me know. I can take pictures of whatever you need. It would only let me post 24 pictures, but I have pictures of the lights on, and I have a picture of the fuel pump, as well as pictures of all three VIN numbers that match (door, firewall, VIN plate) Title is a Texas title, and I have the import papers from when I brought it across the border. I have a video of it on the track spitting flames if anyone wants to see that.

I can tow this to the Toronto area and everywhere in between there and North Bay. If shipped anywhere else in Canada, I can assist with loading. I am also going back down to Pennsylvania mid July, so I can take it down to PA and if you live in the states, you can estimate your shipping from there.

Head over to Mazda's pre-order site and place a $500 deposit toward the purchase of your car. Better act fast, though.

Honda, Nissan and Mazda recalling 3 million vehicles for airbag inflators

Mon, 23 Jun 2014

Three million more vehicles can be added to the worldwide tally to be repaired for the faulty airbag inflators supplied by Takata. Honda, Nissan, and Mazda have all issued recalls to replace the bad part, including about 1.2 million of them in North America. NHTSA has been investigating all three companies, plus Chrysler and Toyota, for potentially affected vehicles.
Honda is recalling roughly 1.02 million Civic, CR-V, Odyssey and Element models In North America, built between April 2000 and October 2002. Mazda needs to repair 14,794 units of the RX-8 and Mazda6, and Nissan has 228,000 vehicles in North America to be fixed.
Chrysler is also starting what it calls a "regional field action" to replace the inflators in the 2006 Dodge Charger, according to a company spokesperson. The company says that it has not yet found the problem in any of its vehicles, but it's being done "out of an abundance of caution." The final number of Chargers affected will be announced later this week.

Buy a Fiat 124 Spider Abarth, get a free day of driving school

Fri, Aug 19 2016

We know the Mazda MX-5 Miata and the Fiat 124 Spider are basically the same car underneath. As we pointed out in our first drive of the 124 Spider, the two cater to different drivers, so it can be tough to choose a favorite. FCA has made deciding between the two sports cars a little harder, as it will offer Abarth owners a free day of high-performance driving instruction with their cars. Anyone buying or leasing a new Fiat 124 Spider Abarth or a Fiat 500 Abarth will get a free, one-day class at the Bob Bondurant School of High Performance Driving in Phoenix. Bundling driving school with brand-new performance cars isn't unheard of – Dodge and Bondurant recently announced a similar program for the Viper – but it is quite rare for vehicles priced below $30,000. The free session will include instructor-led skid, autocross, slalom, and team rally cross activities, in addition to hot laps. While the one-day course is included for free, travel, food, and hotel expenses aren't covered. Fiat-less people can also join in on the fun buy purchasing the Abarth experience separately. Bondurant one-day classes cost at least a grand, which makes the Fiat price of $0 a good deal as long as you can get yourself there relatively cheaply. But is this enough for drivers to choose the 124 Spider Abarth over an MX-5 Club? This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.
