not for any M type gearbox ( s1-s3 rx7 )
however
1986-91 s4/5 turbo ( R type ) manual gearbox can use the 1986-91 auto starter N 327

Hi,thanks for your reply,my car is l think the only auto in england,l have located another that is being broken,my car is a 1983,l burn out my starter for some reason,l think its because the the work l put the starter through,the starter is a Mitsubishi m3t26481,l gather that it is the correct starter for the auto car,l have ask for help on the site,but being a auto the guys on hear has never experience this type of rx7,l was hoping some one could perhaps lead me to another rx7 model that l could use the starter,but as yet no luck,thanks again
