What I have for sale or trade possibly is my 1987 RX7 Turbo II two-tone Gold/Brown. I have owned this car for the last 10 years and have been very slowly building it up and fixing anything that needs to be taken car of on it. I purchased the car with about 71,xxx miles on it and it now has just a little over 81,xxx. As you can tell it doesn't get driven to often and that's part of the reason I'm looking to let it go. About 5,000 miles after I bought it the engine suffered a water jacket seal failure and so it began its life of becoming a proper rotary engine with a full rebuild.

Electronics/Management
Misc stuff
I have no doubt that I am forgetting a ton of stuff on this car but that's the important stuff I can thing of. Now about the car as it sits. This car has had many brains and changes over the last few years. After the rebuild I had a RETEK and a different injector setup, then I changed it to a megasquirt system and wasn't happy. Finally I settled on the Power FC, and eliminating the resistor pack and running the newest generation bosch injectors. That has made a world of difference in the driveability of this car. Now would I recommend this car for the first time RX-7 driver? Oh no, this is not a easy car to drive. For starters there is no power steering, which may not bother too many. The abs system is gone, but I have replaced the lines and put in a new master cylinder to help compensate. The ORC clutch/flywheel combo does tend to make it a little tricky in stop and go traffic, but once your rolling you will fall in love with how quickly this engine runs through the rpm range. We're talking its almost like INDY car fast between revs. For those of you that do not like the current hood I do still have the original TII hood for it, I also have a second exhaust for it that is a single side exit if you want to be loud and make some noise. I also still have the original wheels for the car. Not to mention a couple of boxes full of misc parts and pieces for the car. The body of the car is almost perfect, now remember this car is 26 years old and she is beginning to show some age. There are some dents in the current hood from some hail, it has a few paint chips from rocks and stuff along the lower edges of the body. There is a small dent in the passenger side door where my dog decided he could jump in the car through the open window. As for the paint, this was not a factory option, but this car was custom ordered direct from mazda with this paint combination, I have all the original bill of sales and the window sticker for it, as well as the order sheets for the custom two-tone paint job. The bad stuff The AC system holds a charge and it does work, it just doesn't have a belt right now. I was working on making a custom pulley spacer so I could hook the AC belt back up with the cosmo serpentine pulleys but i never got around to it. However, if you need AC, I am including the original pulleys and belts to put everything back how it was. Tuning tuning tuning - I have spent most of my time tuning the car for driving. I was never really planning on making it a full throttle monster. I do not know how much power this car can make, 300, 400, 600hp!!! maybe who knows. I did have it on a dyno when I first installed the power FC to get some base tuning done on it. We never took the car past 5k and at that point it was making close to 275HP and about 300Ftlbs. I really see no reason why she can't make close to 400 at the wheels with a good proper tuning. The suspension was replaced with a pretty much oem/stockish setup before I bought the car. For the power it had then it was perfect, now it does need some attention. something a little more stiff would be great for it Some small plastic interior pieces are missing / broken. Usual stuff the triangle vents in the corners, the demister vents at the front of the windshield, the stereo surround is cracked in the normal place. |

2015 Mazda2 revealed ahead of Paris debut [w/videos]
Thu, 17 Jul 2014Small cars may be big business, but the world's automakers don't seem to be in any particular rush to keep them fresh. The new Smart Fortwo unveiled yesterday replaces a model that's already been around for seven years, and based on a structure dating back to the late '90s. The new Opel Corsa revealed just last week replaces a model that had been around for eight years. And the Mazda2 has been on the market in its current form for seven years now, but not for much longer because Mazda has finally revealed its successor.
Set to be unveiled at the Paris Motor Show this October, the new Mazda2 follows the stylistic lead of the Hazumi concept remarkably close, from the sharply creased front end right down to the wheel design - bringing the supermini hatchback in line with the KODO design language that characterizes its bigger siblings: the Mazda3, Mazda6 and CX-5.
Although details released thus far are rather limited, and power will vary from one market to another, engine options center around a 1.5-liter four in both gasoline and diesel versions, joining the manual and automatic transmissions and the chassis itself under Mazda's Skyactiv technology umbrella. We wouldn't expect the diesel version to make it across the Pacific (or across the border from the plant that will build it alongside a new Toyota hatch in Mexico), but rumors have surfaced of a potential rotary hybrid. The new 2 will also include the company's MZD connectivity suite and i-Activsense safety technology.
Mazda6 AWD: More evidence surfaces
Wed, Jan 10 2018Last month, we learned that Mazda was seriously considering adding all-wheel drive to the Mazda6 line-up due to high demand. Now, more evidence has surfaced that an all-wheel-drive Mazda6 could be coming sooner than later. As first reported by Motor Trend, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration website has listings for both the 2018 Mazda6 with the standard front-wheel-drive powertrain and a 2018 with all-wheel drive. Clicking on the all-wheel-drive link reveals that it has the exact same safety ratings and features listed as the front-wheel-drive model. Both pages also have links to the same technical data sheets, all of which are for the 2016 Mazda6. This is the case with the 2017 model listed on the NHTSA site, too. Naturally, this by no means confirms that Mazda is bringing an all-wheel-drive version to the United States. It's possible the inclusion was a mistake, or someone might have even typed an "A" instead of an "F" when creating that page. But also considering Mazda's interest in offering all-wheel drive, the existance of all-wheel-drive Mazda6 variants overseas, and the likely minor technical hurdles to overcome, we'd say the odds are pretty solid that we'll see four driven wheels in a Mazda6 in the near future, even if not this model year.

2018 Mazda 6 gains Apple CarPlay, Android Auto in September
Tue, Jul 31 2018When we did our midsize sedan comparison test, only one of the three cars came equipped with Apple CarPlay and Android. That was the Honda Accord. However, had we waited a bit, the 2018 Mazda 6 also would've included these increasingly common and now widely expected smartphone connection features. Though the addition was previously announced, Mazda made it official that upgrades will start in September. All but the base 2018 Mazda 6 Sport trim will receive Apple CarPlay and Android Auto as no-cost dealer-installed upgrades. That includes 2018 model year cars that have already been sold. So, if you should have already purchased a Touring, Grand Touring, Grand Touring Reserve or Signature, make an appointment at the dealer in a month and it'll upgrade the infotainment system to not only include the Apple and Android software but also the latest Mazda Connect software and a more powerful, faster-charging 2.1-amp USB port. The 6 is the first 2018 Mazda to receive this upgrade, be it when purchased or as a retroactive add. We have reached out to Mazda to find out if other Mazda models could be so-upgraded in the future. We will update this story as we get more information. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.
