  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 14 เม.ย. 2021
  • Welcome back! Today on the show we're driving a one-of-a-kind 1993 Mazda RX-7 FD3S imported from Japan. It's been built primarily for use on the track and puts down strong power thanks to a street port, bolt-ons, ECU and a fairly conservative dyno tune to keep it reliable (even after endless hours of high-RPM abuse!). Enjoy!

      Nice RX7! Is the whole pre-mix thing really necessary? You can still have a nicely tuned one and just use premium gas can't you? Is it just that you have to use a specific type of oil and top the oil off from time to time?

    • @arrivendrive6831
      @arrivendrive6831 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      You can get away with no premix but if you are adding 100 plus hp to the car, adding premix will help with longevity of the engine.

    Nice FD. If you want one, hurry up, the prices are rising like crazy. I somehow managed to buy stock RHD FD for 4500 pounds about 4 years ago. It's still working and making smiles :)

    Once the engine is solidly rebuilt it should be pretty reliable (as far as it can be reliable) for many miles and lots of years, but only with good maintenance.

    Its a nice car, I have driven an FB, FC and FD but I prefer the FB. I never liked the super complicated fighter pilot interior. Too many gadgets inside, If there's going to be more gauges than submarine, I prefer them to be simple looking and apart of the center console.

    It’s funny how the Rx8 gets the worst reputation. A properly maintained S2 Rx8 can go well beyond 100k miles before needing rebuilt. I’m at 110k on my original engine in my 2011 R3. I’ll be buying a new off the shelf motor and modifying my original engine while rebuilding. I absolutely love my Rotary. I hope to someday get an FD and build a 3 rotor NA renesis to put in it. 😬😬😬😬
