Spirit-R\'s

[andrewrx7]

To waste a few hours of my time, I have put together a small web site on the Spirit R (web site ). Not finished yet, but getting there!
Just asking if anyone has any info/pictures etc, or if they have a Spirit, whether you want it up for public display? And before anyone suggests "do a search for info".......I have carried out many!!:D

Thanks,
Andrew

nice site man!

was going to suggest andrew\'s, but you\'ve already got it on the site (saw it a couple of weeks back- she\'s a beauty!!)

i thought there were only a couple of spirit-r\'s in the country though?

[andrewrx7]

I was hopping that it is not only UK owners that read this forum, so might get others, rather than just mine and Andrews. I\'m guessing most are probably in Japan though. I\'ll have to wait and see!

Cheers,
Andrew

Hi Andrew,

Well done, what a great site  

You have every right to feel very proud of it and l am sure given time it will help other Sprirt owners such as yourself and people wanting info on these great cars.

A while ago Miguel posted some really pics of a Titanium model that would look great on your site.
If you want them and can\'t find them, mail me and l will try and source  them if l can for you.

Just put up some more pics!

Very nice site, time well spent to collect and collate all that data:cool

Hi there,

Several more pages now added to the site: more with general Spirit pics (including the crashed one featured on rx7clubs.com recently), plus starting to build up a record of whats happening with mine.

As always, any suggestions/corrections/info/pics, more than welcome!

Cheers,
Andrew

As for the bits and pieces - i\'m sure I\'ve seem the clear reflectors on ebay from time to time, but I\'d guess some of the parts suppliers advertising on mrc would sell or get hold of them....and the front bumper to. It is a std Mazda item, for the 99-on 7\'s. Apparently they can be fitted to pre-99 cars, but some modification is required. Wheels are BBS, these were for the Spirit specifically, but you can get extremely similar ones for probably alot less than these ones cost.

Excellent site mate!! Keep up the good work.

I know from first hand experience how difficult putting together a small\'ish website, and making it look good, can actually be - it\'s not as easy as it seems!

All the best,
Jon

Thanks!

And yes, web site took a long time to put together - its done for a bit of fun. I\'m sure alot of other people could do better, but its as much as I can do really! It achieves what I wanted to do. There\'s not really alot more to add, other than a few more pics, and keeping a history of mine!

Cheers
Andrew

Well you can\'t have mine just yet!!

If someone ever gets a model report accepted for later 7\'s, Spirits may become available (I seem to remember RX Heaven (?) were saying they were having a go on a series 6 (if it gets approved, not sure if the report will be applicable to series 7 or 8 though)).

For the time being, it is nice to live in exclusivity though! :cool Supposedly only 3 in the UK at the moment.

They really are amazing cars. IMHO they are FD perfection.

You\'ve got to love the exclusivity of RX-7\'s in general, but to be 1 of only 3 in the UK - that\'s pretty good!

I\'m pretty sure I\'m the only Rex within the town I live in, although I know of one other in the neighbouring town/village. You could say "I\'m the only Rex in the village".
