Title: How do i know which type of Rex iv got?
Post by: FD3S Efini on September 14, 2009, 08:56:45 PM
Ok i need some help, i was on here last week and i came across a thread with a link that took you to a japanese website where you input your VIN and it told you what your car was (like Type r, type r 2 and the others) i kept the page open and was guna use it when my log bookn arrived from my old dears house but my computer kindly decided to switch itself off and on again so i lost it.
 
i have been searching for hours and cannot find it is there any chance that anyone has seen this thread with the link?
 
All help is appreciated
 
Cheers

Does your car not have a sticker on the inside of the drivers door sill?
If it has it says on that what model you have

tell tell signs of which model you have are things like, how many oil coolers you have and what type of seats it has etc there are any massive differences between the different models

Sorry, Dave, I fell for that one too, and I don\'t think you and I are the only ones. The "Special Edition" is the heading, and if it actually was some sort of special edition, it would say which one it was underneath that (in much the same way as it says "DIsplacement" and then "13B" underneath or "EXT Colour" and the Paint code such as "NU" underneath). Sorry to shoot down your hopes there, dude

they did do a type s rob - iirc it was the proper basic no frills model. i think it was single oil cooler like the type x but without the cruise control/sunroof/leather front seats etc. i read somewhere on here that it was the cheapest rx7 sold

We need to build a picture to have an idea of the model type

Do you have rear seats (well sort of)
Do you have a rear wash wipe
Do you have two oil coolers
