2 Engine rebuilds, 1 Turbo rebuild, All in 2000km - David's Rx7 | TRW Feature #1

The journey of David and his Mazda RX7 Spirit R Type A is an inspiring one to us which is why we chose to kick off our new feature series with his story. David's journey with his Rx7 is an arduous one that involves 2 engine rebuilds, 1 turbo rebuild and all in the span of 2000km.
What we find inspiring is he chose to persevere on the project and never gave up. Our hopes is that in sharing his story, we would give motivation to those who have lost theirs in their own personal projects too. Although David's Rx7 is currently on a run in tune, it is running better than it ever has been and we look forward to bringing his story full circle as it is set to get its full power and flex fuel tune in the near future.
This is our very first feature video in a series of videos to come and admittedly, some mistakes were made including having our audio recording equipment fail on us during the time of the shoot but we did our best to recover as much as possible.
Hopefully this video does justice to the struggles that David has gone through with his Rx7, built from blood, sweat and tears and we hope you enjoyed the video!
Do give our channel a subscribe as we will be doing more of these features amongst several other videos. As mentioned on our socials, we aren't videographers but just a small team of automotive enthusiasts that love to showcase your journeys and stories with your cars to the world.
So please do be kind and let us know in the comments below what you think we could do to improve in our future videos!
Huge thank you to David for giving us his time and for allowing us to share his story.
