QuoteHi,
Just a quick email to ask if you know anyone who may want to take on an aging RX323. 1979/80 1400 SP fitted with 13B 4 port RX7 engine. Car was converted in \'95 and recon eng. supplied and caR well known by Rotechnics.
Been sat in a dry barn, under a cover for 6 or 7 seven years. Looks like it needs an off side sill and some welding, but restorable. Has nice mazda alloys and good low profile tyres, dellorto carb/K&N, air scoop bonnet etc.
Located in Surrey. has current V5 and is sorn
Will be putting on ebay as desperatley need some cash to rebuild my blown up racing motorbike.....!
Cheers
Richard
Sounds like an ideal project with most of the hard work already done !
I want the engine! :p
Mike, can you PM his details? He is not that far from me...
Car has been sold but I saw it being moved today while out with family.
I think i Know where it went( HO HO not me tho, I have enough to do with mine) Will keep you all informed
aye, yes please keep us informed.
I guess there will be more rx323\'s in the UK that rwd 323\'s ;)
Right. Not sure what he is doing with it but he wants to sell the carb and manifold. 48mm Dellorto on ali manifold. He wants to keep the 13b and box.
As yet he is undecided about the shell but I think he would budge on that for the right price. Wierd that he wants to break it when It is not beyond rebuilding by no means
so it\'s been bought for its engine :(
Looks that way. I think the carb is going on ebay on thursday pm
Gutted. What a waste of an RX-323. (http://www.mazdarotaryclub.com/forums/images/smilies/frown.gif)
If the shell is going cheap I may know someone keen.
might be worth it for the shell the hard work has been done so its just a matter of putting a 13BT in there!
if it is devoid of any running gear i have a set of struts + brakes + rear axle + gearbox + prop that I will donate for free to the new owner!
As of about 11pm last night I might have saved this car.:Thumbsup! Much to the delight of the wife:eek :eek it is now in my back garden. Amazingly it started and ran but the clutch master or slave cylinder is shot so we were unable to drive it up the drive so a big push was needed. Dont ask how I got it but it did cost. I have a mate who is really interested in buying it and KEEPING it.
Only problem is I love it and its not as rusty as some were led to believe and I am now down a 13b bare engine that I was going to use for an Escort beating engine
Will keep you all informed
Jeez Brian, ANOTHER car !!
VERY glad you saved it, though. Well done.
Excellent ... top job Brian :Thumbs-up
Just got to find a proper home for it now. Wife very :reallymad Ha Ha Ha
If I had the room I\'d offer storage once it got too much ... but i don\'t (having just had the same :reallymad conversation with my folks about too many cars (and I\'m just replacing one and not gaining any!!)
I don\'t know if Rich would like it ? Hayden what about your mate ?
I am prepared to do a deal to sell this to some one who is not going to wreck it.
I wouldnt mind keeping the engine but everything else inc the carb and manifold will go as a job lot.
I need to recover what it cost me and also replace the 13b that I was going to build up for racing.
I have a mate that may be interested. I\'ll send you a PM Brian. (http://www.mazdarotaryclub.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
