Mazda RX7 FD3s
1994, Registered in the UK in 1998
MOT - July
Tax - June (I think)
Unfortunatley due to work I need to drive something a little more efficient than this. I love this car and it still makes me smile when I drive it, but its not the best car to be driving around the country in.
Here is the spec:
- Rota grid drifts: 18x9.5" et20 front
18x10" et15 Back
Half decent tread on the front, just under half decent (still legal) tread on the back
All four sprayed florecent orange. Paint job on the wheels looks good from a distance but they are all a little curbed (first wide wheels with stretched tyres ive ever driven on sorry!) and for perfection would need a respray
- D2 coilovers all around. Cant remember the exact model but they are height adjustable without effecting the spring preload and dampers can be stiffened or softened with the knob on the top of the topmount etc.
Very good condition. Easily adjustable, no seizing
- Drilled and groved front discs with EBC red stuff pads all around
- Custom made shotgun exhaust with 2x2.5" exits. Silenced mid pipe but its still damn loud. New about 500 miles ago
- Twin apexi filters
- Non Sequ setup
- Aftermarket thicker ally radiator
- Apexi power FC with commander
- Mapped by Hayward rotary
- Lots of receipts form Hayward Rotary
- Rebuild (approx 15,000 miles ago)
- Sparks changed less then 1000 miles ago
- Im trying to organise a compression test when I have more time next week
- Newer \'carbon\' effect front seats
- Newer interior plastic panels
This car has a stong engine. Never struggled to start, Always warmed up properly and turned off properly. Temperatures stay constant. Its low, but that can be changed easily in about an hour (higher or lower). This has adjusted the camber a little which is making it handle even better than it was before.
I will PX for a sensible saloon (BMW 3 series/Audi A4 type thing) but has to be cash my way though.
Offers around £4800
I do still have a garage full of parts left over from my last one, this includes:
- 6 wheels (4 standard 2 spares)
- Bonet (black)
- both subframes
- selection of suspension arms
- Blitz nur spec with a busted tip
- Every spare fuse/relay you can think of
- Both headlights
- Dashboard
- Loom
and much more
if you want to take the lot then i\'d be looking for more around the £5100 mark
Im also selling a GSXR 600 K1 if you want to get a super deal :thumbs:
The car is in Hatfield atm. No test drives without asking price and proof of insurance
Pictures: (some are at different heights. Whichever looks the lowest is what it is at now..

33s are surprisingly not too bad on the juice, and not much go wrong with them either..

fair enough.. frankie, fire me over some pics and spec and il see if im interested..
Just to add. I know my name would suggest otherwise but this car doesnt get drifted. We teach in skylines at work so there is no need to risk my own car.
Bumppppppppppp
if i can have your email address ill send you some through that if you like ????

should probably mention this has rust around the arches where youve hammered the insides so the rotas would fit, the boot seals gone and that theres a huge crack in the dash, also the stereo etc has been ripped out so that noboy else gets the same disapointment i had when i went to pick this up last weekend and wasted my time becuase it was nothing like it was described :( but on the plus side it does actualy have BOV fitted and sounds absoloutley amazing with the shotugn exhaust!
im not downing your thread, im trying to help.
Hi, I need some cheap rear wheels to practice drifting, I am heading up from Surrey to Santa Pod on Wednesday 27th June and I would be going past Hatfield, can you sort me out some cheapy old wheels/tyres? thanks
Roborange - I\'m actually looking for a final standard wheel to complete my set at the moment so have no spare, however if you do find any give me a shout and I\'ll buy a rim off you. S14 wheels will fit on a rex just the tyres are a bit skinny..they are cheap and available tho.
Reece - I\'m sorry that you were dissapointed with the car. This is why I\'d perfer people to veiw the car before bidding. This is not always easy with the distance thing though. Yes, there are a few bits of rust here and there but nothing that you wouldn\'t expect from an 18 year old car. I never said the shell was super clean or rust free. Rear window seals are a common issue with RX7s and although asthetically mine isn\'t perfect, it doesn\'t leak. The radio has been taken out as I was borrowing it off a friend as this never had one. And unfortunatley the top bit of the dash is cracked.
I might add, it is on 3 standard wheels and one aftermarket as that\'s what I had in the garage when I sold my orange ones. I\'m desperatley trying to source a 4th but not had much time or luck recently.
Its getting a compression test on thursday hopefully.
Odd as it may seem, I\'m glad that you posted this as it may save someone else a journey. I\'m not trying to put anybody out, just trying to sell a car.
