This Mazda RX-7 FD got away, but there are more like it here.

Modified 1994 Mazda RX-7 5-Speed

Bid to $27,500 on 9/2/23

This 1994 Mazda RX-7 is powered by a modified twin-turbocharged 1.3-liter Wankel rotary engine connected to a five-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential. Modifications reportedly include an R1-style front spoiler, a rear spoiler, late-model taillights, 17″ Kansei alloy wheels, Tein coilovers, Haltech engine management, and a 3″ cat-back exhaust system as well as a Nardi steering wheel and a Kenwood Bluetooth head unit. The car is finished in Silver Stone Metallic over black leather and spent time in multiple states before it was acquired by the seller in March 2018, at which point the engine reportedly underwent an overhaul. An ACT flywheel, clutch, and pressure plate were installed in May 2021. This FD is now offered with a clean Ohio title in the seller’s name.

The car is finished in Silver Stone Metallic, and features an R1-style front spoiler, pop-up headlights, vented front fenders, a power sunroof, and a power antenna. The headlights, daytime running lights, and license plate bulbs have been replaced with LED units. The Carfax report shows a May 2012 incident in which damage was sustained to the front-right of the car. The seller states there is evidence of resprayed panels. A dent and cracked paint are shown on the right door, and rock chips are noted on the front bumper. The badges have been removed from the front and rear of the car and the holes have been filled.

Bronze-finished 17″ Kansei wheels are mounted with Toyo Proxes R1R tires measuring 235/40 in front and 245/40 at the rear. Braking is provided by four-wheel antilock discs with blue-finished calipers and slotted rotors. The brake pads were replaced and stainless-steel braided hoses were installed. Tein coilovers have been fitted along with polyurethane suspension bushings, Muteki lug nuts, and a GReddy front strut-tower brace.

The cabin features twin high-backed bucket seats trimmed in black leather with a color-coordinated dashboard, carpets, and door panels. Amenities include drilled aluminum clutch and brake pedals, a Kenwood head unit, an RX-8 gear knob, a GReddy boost controller, and Lloyd floor mats. The air conditioning equipment was removed, the airbags and cruise control were deactivated, and the left mirror trim piece is cracked.

The Nardi steering wheel frames a central tachometer, 180-mph speedometer, and gauges for oil pressure, coolant temperature, and fuel level. Auxiliary gauges are mounted on the A-pillar showing boost pressure, coolant temperature, and air/fuel ratio. The instrument cluster was replaced and the digital odometer indicates 157k miles, approximately 4k of which were added under current ownership. Total mileage is unknown.

The 1.3-liter Wankel rotary features twin turbochargers and was reportedly overhauled over several months ending in the spring of 2019. Engine work reportedly consisted of the following components:

Replacement housings, irons, rotors, and seals
Pineapple Racing large street port
GReddy intake components
Efini Y-pipe and crossover pipe
Haltech engine management system and wiring harness
850cc secondary injectors
Walbro 255-lph fuel pump
ETS front-mount intercooler
TiAL blow-off valve
Innovate wideband O2 sensor
MSD Ignition and relocated ignition coils
FC ignition trailing coil and wires
IR Performance polyurethane engine mounts
GReddy aluminum accessory pulleys
IR Performance water pump
Koyo aluminum radiator

The front bumper core support and crossmember have been removed along with emissions equipment and cold-start programming.

Power is sent to the rear wheels through a five-speed manual transmission and a Torsen limited-slip differential. An ACT clutch disc, pressure plate, and flywheel were reportedly installed in May 2021 and the transmission and differential fluids were changed at that time. Additional modifications reportedly include a Racing Beat stainless-steel cat-back exhaust system, a Bönez stainless-steel downpipe, a resonated mid-pipe, and a Banzai Racing transmission crossbrace.

The Carfax report shows the aforementioned damage report in May 2012 as well as a stolen vehicle report in October 1996 and the subsequent recovery in November 1996. History is listed in New York, Maryland, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Arizona, Colorado, Alaska, and Massachusetts.
