I originally bought this 93 RX7 in October of 2012 with the intention of working on it over time to turn it into a track car, but as life would have it I have had little free time and haven’t touched it since I bought the car.

I bought the car from its previous owner in Northern California with a 120k on the chassis and (an unconfirmed) 50k on the powertrain. I test drove the car and found that it drove well and looked nice in person so I bought it and had it shipped to Phoenix, Arizona (where I live and where the car is located now). Since the shipping company dropped off the car it wasnt running, but it turned out to be a loose ground on the starter motor which has since been fixed. I have not driven the car in over a year, but it starts up and settles down into a nice idle after a minute or so.

I am not sure what engine swap kit was used or what donor car the LS1 was harvested from. The car has a clean car fax with no accidents.

Here is a list of known issues:

1. The body is in overall good condition, but there are paint chips along both front fenderwells (see pictuers), as well as a couple poorly repaired scratches on the driver’s side fender. Also, the driver’s side headlight cover is a different shade of red than the rest of the car. Driver's side exterior door handle doesn't open the door when it is locked, which is a well known issue with the FD chassis RX7. Also, fuel door sometimes sticks.

2. Electrical: this is the one area where I think the car needs the most attention. Just from looking under the dash, the wiring isn’t labeled and the connections were done with taps and splices. The car would really benefit from a new harness (as can be purchased from Jordan Innovations). The car currently has no radio or A/C. During my test drive, the speedo was not working as car needs dakota digital signal converter.

3. The interior panels are in good condition. The original seats are not included; instead there are momo seats and steering wheel, as well as a roll bar which has been bolted in. I have the interior panels stored and bagged, and these will be included with the car (I removed these interior panels to inspect the condition of the body of the car).

4. Suspension: car is on D-1 drift spec coilovers with no apparent issues

5. Wheels/tires: XXR 527’s are brand new, tires are Falken RT-615’s with >50% treadlife left

6. The car currently is running, but hasn't been driven in over a year.

My honest estimation is that with some attention to the electrical system and TLC to the details, this car can be a very nice LS swapped RX7. I am not in a rush to sell nor do I need to sell, but it makes little sense to hold on to the car when it is just gathering dust.

Please note the following:
-I will not be replying to any offers of cars in trade; I am looking only for an outright sale.
-I have the clear title in hand. I will sign title over to the new owner once car is paid for in full.
-Buyers who have demonstrated the ability to afford the car through a cash statement or pre-qualified loan letter are welcome to inspect the car in person in Phoenix, AZ.
-Buyer to arrange and pay for the cost of shipping.

2017.5 Mazda6 gives you more for the same money

Mon, Oct 2 2017

The current Mazda6 has been around since the 2014 model year, but Mazda continues to update it and make it more enticing. For this midyear update that's earned the "2017.5" model year stamp, Mazda has added more standard features to both the base model Sport and midlevel Touring models. The Sport model now comes with blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert as standard features. The Touring model picks up navigation and heated seats as standard equipment. You can also opt for 8-way power leather seats on the Touring as well. If the extra features weren't enough, Mazda doesn't charge anything extra for the trim levels. All the base prices remain the same. The cheapest Sport model, which comes with a manual transmission, still starts at $22,820. The cheapest Touring model, again with a manual transmission, keeps its starting price of $25,070. Aside from a nice addition of features for no extra cost, there's something else interesting about the 2017.5 Mazda6, and that's the model year itself. The last time Mazda used a half-year designation was for the 2016.5 CX-5. It was the last model year of the previous generation CX-5, with the completely redesigned model launching for 2017. This leads us to believe that we may be seeing a completely new Mazda6 for the 2018 model year, with a reveal sometime within a year. It's possible Mazda could just do a significant refresh for 2018 as well, but the 6 also is the next model due for a complete redesign. And since the folks at Mazda have told us they're in the process of thoroughly updating the lineup again, we would lean toward the likelihood of a completely new car rather than a refresh.

Mazda previews 2016 Miata Global MX-5 Cup racer

Wed, 05 Nov 2014

At this point, we all know that the Mazda MX-5 Miata is a highly capable racing platform. Mazda even claims that the car is the most road-raced model in the world. Fittingly, then, the Japanese brand is making a huge announcement about the future of motorsport for its next-generation convertible. The MX-5 Cup is going worldwide in 2016 as the MX-5 Global Cup, and all of the racers are getting behind the wheel of the upcoming fourth-gen Miata, similar to the gorgeous redhead pictured above.
"It has long been our goal to see Mazda fans around the world competing in identical MX-5s, and the launch of the 2016 MX-5 Miata is the perfect time to make this goal a reality," said Masahiro Moro, Managing Executive Officer in charge of Global Sales, Marketing and Customer Service for Mazda in the company's announcement.
The racing version makes its grand debut at this year's SEMA show, although at the moment it's really more of a concept. Mazda confirms that the racer uses the 2.0-liter SkyActiv four-cylinder, but the other important parts like tires, suspension and safety equipment are not yet determined. The cars "will be sold ready to race from a single supplier," according to automaker's announcement for the series.
