Hey guys! The Mazda RX7 is one of the Japanese supercar manufacturers, but with a twist. It's powered by a rotary engine which makes it unique and provides great power potential out of it's small displacement. How did the RX7 come to fruition though? This video will be on the history of the RX7.

Great video. One thing he didn't mention though, was that with each new series, the price went up. Since one of it's original selling points was affordability, that hurt it a lot. It was a sports car that the average person could afford.

Nice video. My first car was a used 1984 RX-7. It had the 1.2L 12A engine (no turbo) with 5-speed manual transmission. It was a joy to drive for the 7 years I owned it.

One thing to make clear the 13b REW didn't have two different sized turbos both were the same size and one operated at lower rpms and both kicked in at higher rpms 4500rpm just to clearafy Great Video!!!

What Beaver said is correct. The turbo's on the 3rd gen are sequential. Meaning at low RPM you run on the primary, there is a 500 rpm transition to parallel mode where you run on both turbo's until the revs drop below 3500rpm. It been awhile since I had the twins but I think the transition started at 4500rpm and completed at 5000rpm. Boost drops by 2lbs during the trans. In spirited driving it only happens once as shifts near redline will keep revs above 5000. US\production ended in 95' not 93' with 13,879 made over the 3 year span. Just for some context my black touring model with a 5 speed was one of 235 in 94' for the US market and only 3403 total. One of Mazda's slogans for early 90's was "it's not an everybody car", they could have added and not everybody can have one.

I think the 13A was the best engine 1979 I drove one before you can string the 13 name all the way to 55 before you even get to the second-gear you are already pushing 65 to 70. But it has to be tuned just right for it to go like that and that's a 79 RX7

I believe audi is using or planning to use a rotary engine paired to a hybrid system to meet emission standards. If the RX7 returns, this is probably going to be the layout since the NSX and the R36 GTR is going the same route

Thanks! Yeah, that's a tough one. I think the current state of Mazda right now may not allow them to continue with that project. Using the rotary may be difficult to meet current emissions standards and at the same time, making the power to be competitive. We'll have to wait and see.

The RX-7,8, Skyactiv and many other Mazda projects came from one freelance designer. He has worked with many companies throughout the years and has now retired. The 16X rotary engine only received half of the design improvements from this designer, he kept the improvements for later on. The final designs were later destroyed by A unknowing third party. While the designer had health issues.

@GlassTopRX7
@GlassTopRX7 6 жыл бұрын
That would be the hard way. Just get a left hand drive model and covert the body. You need need the 99' spec bumper cover, wing 17" wheels and taillights. Mechanically the main difference are the 99' spec twins which spool slightly faster, 4 way abs vs the 3 way in the US cars and upgraded ECU. The 4 way abs is nice but a unit from a corvette is vastly superior as they modulate twice as fast. The twins aren't worth it they can't handle as much boost and can't be rebuilt. Switch an aftermarket ECU unless you plan on keeping it stock. The 17" wheels are stupid expensive but look nice. The Mazda body parts aren't cheep either but it's the only bumper cover that fits properly. The adjustable wing is nice but it's fairly heavy. I only used the wing, the front bumper is an after market plateless clone, I do have a OEM in garage though. Went aftermarket with the wheels despite being 18's they are lighter and wider for 255's in the front and 285's rear with no rubbing on a slightly lowered car, the fenders were all rolled. I could run up to 295's all the way around without flares which isn't bad for a car designed for 225's.

A quick one to note, in the third generation there were actually 6 series as denoted by the beginning of the VIN for all cars with JDM style VINs. It's all in the first two digits after the first part of the VIN. FD3S-10xxxx -> FD3S-60xxxx ( www.rx7.net.nz/fd-jp-models.html )

I was quite happy with the torque I could get out of the 13BREW in the FD. I owned that car for many years while in Japan. We had great fuel octane and mild weather. So with relatively minor mods, bumping it up was simple. Was surprisingly easy to keep R32s & R33s honest. The SA22C Savanna I owned in Australia. The 12A turbo without inter-cooling really suffered in the heat.

Not at this time. Any "RX7" will only be allowed to have a rotary by purists. A piston engine would stain it's lineage. The problem is that rotary's are too difficult to meet the stricter emission standards. I wouldn't count on a rotary powered 4th generation RX7 anytime soon.

Such a pretty looking car. But I sat in one on a used car lot. I think I also test drove it. From what I remember, it felt like you were lying down in the car, couldn't really see well, and I am five foot nine inches tall. Second, it was weird and hard to shift. Not pleasant. Pass.

Mazda Australia ceased selling the Rx7 after the series 7. All series 8 Rx7s in Australia are "grey imports" and where sold as second hand cars only.

12A is 1.1L not 1.2L just throwing that out there

Nate Rist Yes, technically it's 1,146cc/1.15l. They've rounded up to 1.2l, hence it's name.

they rounded it up for it's name, but is still classified as a 1.1L officially

Nate Rist Not disagreeing with you. I can see Mazda marketing wanting to round up since the "larger" 1.2L displacement may be more attractive in the USA or just sounds better. For us technical folks, it's not.

Rotary engines are junk! I’ve owned two FD’s and maintained the cars meticulously. Still had major issues with both. Leaky turbos at 21000 miles on one and failed Apex seals on the other at around 30000 miles. I should’ve bought Supras but loved the looks of the FD.

Berkeclor92 well damn 🤔 mine made it to 196,000 miles until one of the seals leaked coolant. I'm currently replacing it with a 13bt. Do yourself a favor and don't speak unlesss you have actual experience with these cars. Dumbass

Every 5-6 months, keep an eye on oil levels because it INJECTS oil for lubrication, and pre mix your gas for further lubrication. Not too hard at all, just gotta know what to do and why you're doing it.
