ok so you all probably know of the ausrotory site forum, so go and have a look at the thread titled NZ ROTARY drag cars.( or someting close to that anyway!)
it has loads of very cool photos, even of a 4 rotor (rx7 series 1 ) I think.
sorry i cant post the link to the thread up directly i am a bit useless with any computer that doesnt say microtech on it:D

yeah knew it wasnt a popular thing to sy but when i think old skool mazda i can only think of one brand of wheel.

hey , nice car. If you want to see what a watanabe looks like then all i can suggest is a search on the ausrotory forum. Damn i need to get better at this computer thing,:confused:
Is that the one with the quad throttle body conversion, by the way???

I think that\'s the look they are aiming at, rotors and massive V8 land boats seem to be all the craze... :confused:

If your in the UK T/Bob, how do you know about Watanabe\'s...?

hi re-10 i have been out of the car scene for about 4 and a half years but my mazda loving mates back in oz tols me about the ausrotory forum so I have been able to read up on what is going on. I found out about watanabe\'s simply by seeing a very tough looking series 2 rx7 and thought to myself, those wheels look great, wonder what they are.
I dont really have anything against chromies just like the look more of racing style than cruiser.
