1984 Mazda "5.0L V8" RX-7 GSL. I recently took this vehicle in on a trade. I have fell in love with this little car, but I need to sell it. The man that I got it from owned it for almost 19 years. It was his first car. He went through a couple original rotary engines that seems like always have problems...and decided to make this classic RX-7 the "ULTIMATE" little sports car...he did ALOT of research and properly did the V8 conversion a few years ago.
I do not recommend this car for a younger driver...It is great for cruising around, but it is VERY POWERFUL.
It has been ran at the dragstrip a few times just to see what it would do...It ran mid 12 second 1/4 mile times on the motor alone. It ran a 11.83 at 120mph on its shot of nitrous and the drag radials.
I will describe in detail everything that I know about this car below. I have provided 150+ detailed pictures along with video clips. I have the clean and clear title in hand and ready for a new owner. I believe the reserve price is LOW, so put your bid in and bid to buy!! Or of course make a SERIOUS offer. Hopefully with the hours I have invested in taking pictures and making this auction I have answered all questions, but if not, feel free to call: 513-464-TEN 20. Please read everything and view all of the pics/videos prior to calling.
BODY & WHEELS
Original body is very straight and solid. Both doors and hatch glass open and close like new. The pop up roof works perfect. All of the glass is crack free. The hood could use a little bit of scuffing/bodywork prior to paint, however I think it looks cool black. The undercarriage is VERY SOLID, but does have original scabby undercoating and some surface rust forming(See pics). Cosmetically, it is an absolutely beautiful and stunning 1984 Mazda RX-7. Here is some more details:
- Painted Ford Competition Yellow
- Fiberglass Hood w/ Hood Pins
- Fiberglass front air dam
- PIAA headlights that look very cool after dark and work great too
- Foglights in air dam that also work good
- RS Aluminum Alloy 16x7 4x100mm wheels
- Front Tires -- Kuhmo Ecsta Supra 205/45/16
- Rear Tires -- Kuhmo Ecsta Supra 225/50/16

- Front aluminum wheel Adapters for 4x100mm bolt pattern
- Extra set of rear Mickey Thompson Drag Radials on 15x7 aluminum rims(Not pictured, but will have pics of them tomorrow)
ENGINE & DRIVETRANE
This is where this classic RX-7 gets interesting:

The engine sounds very healthy with a deep V8 lope at idle. The transmission shifts into every single gear perfect and the clutch feels tight. The brakes stop this car hard and straight. All of the V8 sound exits the rear. The suspension is surprisingly very comfortable and is a smooth ride when hitting bumps. This car runs and drives just as nice as it looks!!! It starts right up everytime and is reliable! It cruises down the road amazingly and is an absolute blast to drive!! There is no noticable leaks, and this car does not mark its spot when parked. All of the fluids look good and clean too. Its alot of fun to cruise around and has ALOT of power. It sounds amazing....This V8 RX-7 runs, shifts, drives, and stops great. I would personally trust driving it anywhere.
INTERIOR
The interior appears to be original and in exceptional condition for being 30 years old. Everything looks nice with exception of the carpet. The original carpet could use a good shampoo cleaning. The only original gauges that appear to work is the fuel and temp gauge. It even appears to have its original spare wheel/tire still intact too... I have provided A LOT of detailed pictures below. Keep scrolling through all of the pictures and please view them all. I know there is an overwhelming amount of them, but I want to showcase how cool this class 84' "V8" RX-7 is....

When I attended the first drive event for the Japanese-spec 2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata in Spain earlier this year, I was blown away – and not just by the car. I was blown away by the charts and graphs Mazda's engineers brought along, showing how every little facet of the ND Miata was finely tuned for pure driving perfection. It's like rocket science. Only cooler. One of the most important parts of the Miata package is its weight distribution. The 2,332-pound roadster must achieve a perfect 50/50 balance, with a driver inside. That's not easy. But it has to be done. Only the best for the Miata. In this video, Mazda shows off the Miata's balance by putting it on an aluminum balance beam, to see if the car stays perfectly centered. You can probably guess the outcome, but watching it all take place is super cool, especially with commentary by Mazda engineer Dave Coleman and MX-5 program manager Rod McLaughlin. How does the 50/50 balance help the Miata's handling out on the road? You'll have to wait until the embargo on driving impressions for the US-spec car lifts. We'll have the full scoop at 3:01 AM Eastern on Monday, June 1. In the meantime, get a sneak preview of the new Miata in the video below. Autoblog readers got a closer look at the 2016 MX-5 at our Cars & Coneys meet-up, and as you can see, the excitement for this car is definitely real.
Brands like Porsche and Ferrari make a mint every year by selling branded lifestyle goods like shoes, hats and even wilder items. Bugatti takes things to the extremes with things like its $84,000 belt buckle. These products not only make their respective companies some extra money, but they reaffirm their high-end design aspirations to wealthy buyers. However, the next firm possibly dipping its toe into this upscale pool is a bit more mass-market - Mazda. That's right. The Japanese automaker best known among enthusiasts for its segment-defining Miata and rotary engines is considering its own line of luxury goods in the coming years called Mazda Design. The project is the brainchild of styling boss Ikuo Maeda, and according to Automotive News, he has backing from company CEO Masamichi Kogai. Although the green light isn't quite on yet, Maeda is already brainstorming. "Not only furniture, but I'd like to build a Mazda Design brand. That's my dream," he said to Automotive News. The possible project is just one aspect of Mazda's move to become a near-premium brand. According to Automotive News, it wants to see higher transaction prices partially by offering more stylish design than its rivals. Launching a line of luxury goods is meant to communicate this new focus to customers.
Diesel power. It's not just for Europeans anymore. In fact, when Mazda introduces its new CX-3 compact crossover to its home market of Japan, the model will be exclusively diesel-powered, Reuters says, citing remarks made by Mazda CEO Masamichi Kogai. Consistent with its recent push for better fuel economy, Mazda is embracing diesel power as a way to boost fuel-economy for cars that may be larger than the compact variety. Mazda, which plans to make about 150,000 gas- and diesel-powered CX-3s for global consumption per year, is pricing the diesel CX-3 at about $20,000 in Japan. Diesel sales accounted for less than three percent of new-vehicle sales in Japan last year, so there's a risk to Mazda's strategy. But the automaker, which is the fifth-largest in Japan, says performance and noise (and smoke) issues largely associated with diesel powertrains in the past have largely been eliminated. In all, Mazda expects worldwide sales for the year ending March 31 to rise almost five percent from a year earlier to about 1.4 million units. Mazda showed off an early version of the CX-3 at the Los Angeles Auto Show last November, though North American versions of the model will indeed be gas-powered.
