RX-7 Servicing and parts

[bnaellis]

Hi Vishal,
It\'s only the front seats that are suede but they are fine to maintain. They do have twin oil coolers yes.
I personally have not taken mine to anyone in London, but I know some take there cars to Mazda main dealers who work on them, and other take their\'s to a company called ds engineering Ithink they are based in around Dartford area. I have had know personal dealing with team myself, so therefor eam not in a position to recommend from personal experience but I have heard nothing but good concerning them when I have heard anything.

cheers mate! do u reckon that the car will depreciate much? how much wud a \'95 typeRS go for if it had done 75k??

To be fair it\'s a hard question different dealers price vary by quite a margin, it depends on the cars auction grade on how much they paid for it and how much they are likely to make on it. I can\'t fault any dealer in a sense on how much they charge because whatever we do for a work is our living and we all try and get paid as much as possible for our jobs, whether IT, Cornershop Car sales etc. A type rs with 75,000 miles on the clock I would expect to sell for around 9k but really it\'s to rough a figure to be precise, it\'s just down to the the dealer. I personally wouldn\'t buy a rx7 with that amount of miles on the clock unless it had recently had an engine rebuild. Any questions feel free to ask though.

Hi,

I have been looking onto engine rebuilds and expect to pay 2-2.5k  for one.

Whats involved in a rebuild is dependant on what has failed and what damage it caused when it failed. But the norm is what Adam stated 2.2-2.5k
