@micahjared8082 3 года назад

I was 21 in 1991, and bought a gold turbo 2 w/ 20k miles. Put every paycheck into it for 3yrs straight. Intercooler. Exhaust. Chip. Turbo. Bigger Fuel Injectors....suspension...etc etc. Best car I ever owned - wish I had saved it these past 30 yrs. Thanks for taking me back. This car was waaaay ahead of its time back then. It has aluminum susp arms, aluminum spare tire, and aluminum JACK from the factory. Throw in the all mighty rotary and its a wrap. I devoured MANY cars back then. The best was a hopped up GN built for dragging. And the RX7 can corner too. As far as reliability I sold mine with 170k and she still ran smoooooth like factory. xoxox

@troyfankell6581 4 года назад

Good video and that Series 4 10th anniversary is amazing! The optional rear louvres are very rare by the way. The FC convertible was the only '92 model because the FD was an early model year release as a '93 (March-April '92 I think). I just wanted to add there is a shift light in the cluster Mazda added to help the driver get better mileage from the thirsty rotary. There was also an auto adjust switch (normal & sport mode) on the center console that controlled a solenoid on each strut. The four inch rear speakers are in the strut tower in an enclosure and their own amplifier. They have dynamic control bushings in the rear that change rear toe to aid turn in at speed. The GTUs had an aluminum hood and was the only N/A RX-7 to have one. The Japanese models had rear seats that couldn't fit anyone with legs. I love the FC RX-7 and I still have my '86 Sport that I bought in 1992 when I came back from Japan.

@joemaddoxrx7 4 года назад

@@santastalker7245 No... Learn how this works. A coronet and a superbee are not the same because of the vin. Same applies here. The vins are different between the GTUs that is stamped with a new vin, making it a different model of GTUs than those who are not restamped with a new vin. The non restamped vins are more rare than the final edition verts vins, making them the rarest vins to have been released by mazda. Thus making it the rarest to have been released. That is how this works, has always worked and will always work. So it is the rarest. Also, check your math buddy... Even if it was as you claim, its what place??? 1500 ae's, 1400 infinis, 1100 gtus and 150 verts and its what place??? Yeah, that is about all I need to say. I hope you learned something today lol.

@Idearat Год назад

Late to the game, but a couple items: The wheels are different left & right. The design was intended to draw air from under the car, over the brakes, and outside the car. I had tire guys not pay attention and mount directional tires onto the directional wheels incorrectly and made them re-mount everything. The turn signal and cruise control stalks looked like pinball machine paddles. They took less movement than longer conventional stalks. The cruise control side was especially easy to use, requiring less movement of your hands than even the steering wheel mounted buttons do today. I like the white mirrors. I had a white '86 that was vandalized and required painting one door and replacing both mirrors ( which only came in black then). So I had the mirrors painted to match, giving me body-colored mirrors before they were offered.

@engineeringoyster6243 Год назад

I’ve owned a 1987 RX-7 LX since new. It has always had the shift buzzer. Always fun to enter an on-ramp in 2nd, floor it and when the tachometer beeps, I slowly shift to 5th. I’m no race driver, but the handling of mine is so good. It is effortless to keep it where I want it in the lane, to the inch.

@NinjaForHire 6 месяцев назад

I use to own one of these until a friend wrecked it. It was a blue 88 and it was definitely a machine all its own after a few aftermarket parts. I remember how it struck fear into me when the rpms would get high, the sound it made and the feel you got while in the driver seat was scary. Nothing I have ever driven has given me that feeling it was a unique experience, I never really got use to redlining in that car. Plus for a little 1.4 rotary the back end always wanted to slide out.

@fsfs555 3 года назад

My GTU had the shift light and a buzzer. The shift light was mostly for fuel economy purposes while the buzzer was, as mentioned, to prevent overreving your engine (more accurately, to avoid overreving the accessories). The 6-port 13B-RE used vacuum-actuated valves to open the aux intake ports. You needed to regularly rev over about 4000rpm for them to open, and you needed to do this fairly regularly or the valves would stick closed.

@Technotranceism 6 месяцев назад

I had an identical model year 1991. I noticed one difference between the older 80's 6 port, and the newer version. That was the addition of 2 extra fuel injectors.

I know that it was the best car I ever owned. I had a non power steering model, the handling was just superb. Balanced, great feel, great seating position, great dashboard. The engines are awesome too if you change the oil regularly, mine never broke down once. You get used to being one gear lower than in a piston car. Such fun. I wish I never sold it. The shift buzzer and interior gave me such nostalgia. These things love to be revved. If you have a 3 inch straight through exhaust they will set off many car alarms if you are not careful.

Mine also has manual steering. I bought it new in 1987 and test drove a GTU. But found it too sensitive. So I bought the LX. That also means that it has 14 inch rims.

"It beat out the 924, 944, 928 and 911" The non-turbo versions, which by 1985 some were already considered slow even by japanese standards (and a 924S which was the 924 sold at that time was basically a 944 N/A drivetrain installed on a 924 unibody/suspension. ) The RX7 won on performance/$$$ for sure, as technology was marching on and porsche for monetary reasons left the 944 turbocharged version as a 8v engine (even though the 944S was a 16v and so was the S2 in 89) which hampered performance and never got rid of the rear independent trailing arm design which caused a change in wheel base under load. That being said both the RX7 and 944 are part of my top 3 favorite FR cars, the other being the S13 hatch. All 3 prioritized lightweight, 50/50 weight, driver feel with analog/mechanical control and had the best two features of any sportscar, a fastback like rear profile and POP UP MUTHA-F*CKING HEADLIGHTS!
