Title: Third Gen RX-7 Owners Manual
Post by: eyedee on February 21, 2004, 03:01:57 PM
Hi,
Does anybody have or know where to get an owners manual, either official (in english! ;) or a Haynes style manual for third Gen (1992 type R especially) Rex\'s?  Ive been looking all over the place and can only find \'history of\' books which dont seem to cover mechanical how-too\'s, interior stripping and photographic diagrams of the engine bays etc.
Help would be much appreciated.
Thanks  :)

oh & they\'re always on ebay but i presume it\'s just the same as you can get free from that site so that is pointless ;)

Thanks Clive,  what a great site!  I have only one more problem now.  My 7 doesnt seem to fall into any of the advertised yearly categories on any site Ive been to!  Its a Jap 1992 J car on my V5 form, and its a third generation.  However, all the third gen RX7 manuals and parts I have seen start from 93 (usually to 95) which is very confusing!  Does anyone know whats going on?!?
thanks guys  :)

The 3rd Gen RX-7 had it\'s first changes in 95 ECU etc, so you should be O/K with info on your car up to that year.

Funny how my year doesnt seem to be listed anywhere.  Thanks for all your help and advice.  I\'ll look forward to getting along to a meet when I have my 7 on the road!  I\'m down in Surrey.
cheers again.  :)
