I love that RX7.
One of the nicest looking Jap cars you can get I reckon.
I was always put off by the engine rebuild issues etc but they are a bargain and I'd love one.
Especially a big power one. MMm.
Any more pics of it?

512bhp uprated turbos, rotor tips, injectors, hoses, rotors, wastegate, induction, ecu, in fact nothing is original. Most of the lst 7 years have gone on this and its won a lot of awards as well as a couple of Jap magazine features. Really is my pride and joy but now also own a VW Camper and currently building it up but its a lot of work. Will post up pics soon!
Lovely 7 there mazdaman. I'm also a member of the rotary club but my 190 RX-8 pales in comparison with this but I like it. Except for t's poor bike carrying ability. Saris Bones 2 on the wanted list to fix that though.
May not be able to carry many bikes, but you could iron your trousers or eat a pic-nic off it! :shock:

Thanks for the comments about my car guys, i know a lot more about cars than bikes but like everything i get into i come out only accecpting perfection and the RX7 is my quest car. Had a Supra and a Skyline GTR33 before but against all myth the RX7 is the quickest real world car and can give a lot of very very expensive cars a black eye. They are more reliable than they are given credit for but have always been modified badly. i know of several that have done 100k. People dont buy Ferraris and not have a re-build every 20k so the RX7 just needs a bit more respect. People need to learn about the cars before they buy them. They think they can just add a big new Turbo and it not detonate rather then realise that the engine will require extra cooling and the ecu re-mapped to run more fuel!
I guess cars are just me thing. Oh and its running 11.17 1/4 but its a circuit car and like my bikes gets well abused!!!
Hundreds of pics on way, especially for Jez!!!!!!

my old escort, it cost £400 it's sailed through 2 MOTs and just had a couple of oil changes thats it. dont ask me what engine it is or anything i think 1.6 its red and has a door on either side i can get two bikes in the back with the seats folded down. it has air-conditioning but it makes the car go slow :cry:
my dad wants me to buy a brand new car and has offered the deposit and stuff but i dont fancy it :shock: dont like the thought of owing all that money and also whats the point when this one works fine
