I've decided to move on from the FC3S, as I may have an addition to the family soon... I've owned this car for over 3 years, and nearly every aspect of the car has been rebuilt with the exception of the bodywork, which was completed prior my purchase from a gentleman in Virginia. The RX7 convertible was not offered with a turbocharged engine in the US, which makes this a relatively rare find.
List of mods:
Body:
Full RE-Amemiya FC2000 Bodykit, with the bumpers and sideskirts molded on.
3000GT wing, painted to match
Offset blue 3M stripe done by EastCoastWrap in Jacksonville, Fl.
Aluminum Turbo2 hood.
Roll bar, painted to match.
Shaved door handles, antenna, and gas tank door.
S5 Taillights with diffusers removed.
Interior:
1991 (S5) black dash, carpet, and console - all in excellent condition.
Original seats recovered in black leather last year - and this car only sees the road once a month. They're essentially brand new. Headrest speakers fully functional.
Jensen Double Din Navigation unit (plays SD cards, accepts AUX in, etc.) Rockford fosgate speakers behind seats.
Custom triple gauge mount in place of the "idiot cluster" which currently holds two AFR gauges (Autometer narrowband, and AEM Wideband), and an Autometer Boost gauge.
Brand new shift boot. New carpet.
New convertible top.
Momo JET Steering Wheel
Alpine 12" type R subwoofer, Alpine amplifiers as well!
Drivetrain:
1991 JDM 13BT, THIS ENGINE WAS REBUILT LESS THAN 200 MILES AGO... The Front/Center/Rear Irons have the later, thicker dowel cast area... almost brand new!
1991 JDM T2 Transmission, works perfectly, shifter bushings replaced 2 months ago.
Mazdatrix Short shifter
Megasquirt 2 Engine Managment System. THIS STILL NEEDS TO BE TUNED - when I rebuilt the engine, I changed injector sizes to 720cc primaries, and 1000cc secondaries.
Mazda Competition engine mounts
BNR Stage 2 Turbocharger
RotaryWorks Front Mount Intercooler, with a genuine Greddy BOV.
Full Racing Beat REV TII exhaust system, from downpipe to mufflers.
Custom paint on engine, manifolds, etc.
RB Lightweight Steel Flywheel
Brand new Exedy HD clutch
Brand new clutch hydraulics
Battery relocated to the trunk.
Various Banzai Racing blockoff plates
Godspeed Aluminum Radiator with a VERY CAPABLE e-fan (controlled by the ECU)
Suspension/Wheels:
Mazdatrix Strut tower bar
KSport Kontrol Pro 32 way coilovers, with adjustable camber plates in the front. (Adjustable ride height as well...)
Full Energy Suspension Master Kit - Urethane Bushings
League 17 inch Staggered Mesh Wheels, ET+40 offset.
Powerslot F/R Brake rotors, rear calipers freshly rebuilt.
NO LEAKS!! Whether oil, coolant, or otherwise!
The car currently runs and drives fine, I've tuned the base map to the point where it is very drivable, but is not safe to boost in until more tuning is done.
I'm sure there are some things missing here, but this car is well worth the money considering the work put into it! I'm sad to see it go, but I hope someone will enjoy it as much as I have!
THIS CAR TIED FOR FIRST PLACE AT SPRING BREAK NATIONALS IN DAYTONA BEACH IN THE TUNER JAM "ULTIMATE" DIVISION!
THIS CAR WON FIRST PLACE AT KMS DRIFT CAR SHOWS
Also took 2nd and 3rd in Sibling Rivalry 7 and 8 in Jacksonville.

Mazda going back to oval grille with next MX-5 Miata
Tue, 18 Feb 2014The original Mazda MX-5 Miata was distinguished by an oval grille - a design trait that gradually evolved into the smiling cat face on the latest model. But Mazda, according to the latest intel, is planning on returning to that oval grille with the new model in the works.
The revised grille will cap a slightly longer form than models past, while still keeping weight down to a minimum. The stretched wheelbase was reportedly adopted in order to meet the requirements of Alfa Romeo, which is jointly developing the new platform together with Mazda for use on a new roadster of its own.
The new Miata is expected to adopt the 1.5-liter Skyactiv four found in the Mazda3, albeit returned to rev higher and deliver more power and torque, mated to either a six-speed manual or automatic. The Alfa version, meanwhile, is expected to use a 1.4-liter turbo four with a dual-clutch transmission. Sources anticipate the new MX-5 to debut first, possibly at the 2015 Chicago Auto Show a little less than a year from now.
Carmakers, NHTSA to unveil auto-emergency braking agreement tomorrow
Wed, Mar 16 2016Happy St. Patrick's Day Eve. Tomorrow, there will be green beer, corned beef and cabbage, and automatic emergency braking for all. Weird combo, we know. But on St. Patty's we can expect an official announcement from a pact of automakers making auto-braking systems standard equipment by 2022. That's per a report from Reuters, which cites three sources familiar with the plans. Originally announced in September 2015 by 10 automakers and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the agreement is expected to be even larger when the details are unveiled tomorrow. According to Reuters, the manufacturers of 99 percent of the US domestic market's vehicles will be represented by the new agreement. It's believed that standard AEB systems could prevent thousands of accidents across the country. Expect more on the official announcement when it's made. Related Video:
Mazda 16X rotary engine two years away, will arrive in all-new model
Fri, 16 Aug 2013We last reported on Mazda's next-generation rotary engine project in June of 2012 when the automaker built its last Renesis-powered RX-8, but rumors of this new engine's development had been around way before that final car left the production line in Japan, last year.
We now have enthusiastic confirmation that this next-gen rotary engine is really and truly going forward. It is still referred to as 16X and has several priorities. First is to lower fuel consumption compared to the RX-8's engine, while still making gains in terms of performance. The second is to reduce the burning of oil that was happening at the highest revs. And the third and final priority, and perhaps most key for enthusiasts, is to give the powertrain a big torque upgrade.
What we were told by a Mazda USA insider (while we are all here together at the festivities in Monterey) is that the first application of the new 16X engine will be happening in two years' time in an as yet undisclosed new model. Oh, the mind races to our eternal Mazda wish list...
