Late 1993 (Version II update) FD3S RX-7 Type-R 'Series 6'. Yellow-plate personal import.

Very low kms (around 68k km - I'll post up a pic of the odometer). These are GENUINE kms. Must be amongst the lowest km series 6 in Australia.

I purchased this car in Japan about 5 years ago. It had ~40k km at time of purchase. I have Mazda logs that show the first owner did very few kms in the first seven years of ownership. I drove it in Japan for four years before exporting it to Australia. It has been stored since. I drive it sparingly when I come home (2 or 3 times a year), and it is taken for a short drive every other week (so it doesn't suffer from 'storage rot').

I don't want to sell, but it's wasted on me. It deserves to be driven.

As a yellow-plate personal import it is, according to DOTARS, exempt from ADRs - thus, essentially non-defectable for ADR-related issues. To back this up, I can supply a list of modifications from the freight-forwarder (used for insurance purposes during shipping) - that prove the modifications were in place prior to landing in Australia. Basically, a 'get out of jail free' card, should you ever need it.

Power:

[email protected] (sequential twin turbo)

Weight:

1225kg with a full tank (according to the weighbridge)

OEM/Factory options:

* BBS 17x8/8.5 rims (same as what you would find on an Australian SP) (Bridgestone rubber)

* Scuff plates

* Drivers' armrest

* Driver & Passenger carbon fibre/kevlar recaro seats (VERY light)

* Front and rear strut braces

Performance modifications:

* Apexi PFC ECU + commander. Switchable boost (.7 + .8bar through the commander).

- tuning by one of Japan's most renowned rx-7 specialists: STILLWAY (check them out on youtube). It's a 'safe' tune (still had more in it - but limited by fuel pump), holding up well (according to knock levels) on Australian PULP.

* Trust intakes

* HKS downpipe

* SMB metal catalyzer

* Kakimoto cat-back (92dB limited - it's got a great tone on idle - not loud at all, screams on WOT).

* Stillway pulleys (airpump deleted)

* Trust 2-core V-spec FMIC

* Koyo Z radiator

* RE-Amemiya air sep. tank (AST)

* HKS circle earth (earthing system)

* Exedy twin plate clutch and lightened flywheel

* Upgraded NGK plugs (10, 11)

* Upgraded leads (splitfire)

* C's short shifter (I have the OEM one too)

* R-magic torque (engine) brace

* HKS hipermax coilovers

Other modifications

* OEM Series 8 front bumper (inc. OEM combo lights)

* OEM Series upgraded (96-) tailights

* GP Sports front lip

* Mazdaspeed type-II rear spoiler

* RE-Amemiya vented bonnet

* Defi boost gauge and commander

* Trust profec-b spec II electronic boost controller (using the PFC instead at the moment)

* Blitz 'pencil'-type turbo timer

* Mazdaspeed oil cap

* Momo race steering wheel

* Clear side indicators

* Blacked-out rear markers

* Series 8 rear wiper (!)

* Kenwood MP3/CD head unit - will need to swap this out if you listen to the radio

* Fujita Engineering (FEED) gear knob

* Fujita Engineering emblems

* Fujita Engineering 'CF' door handles

* I had a full respary done about three years ago (NOT related to an accident - it's just a sad fact of life that original Mazda paint jobs don't stand the test of time, as long-time owners will attest). Car has a few typical chips/nicks and scuffs, but no dents.

* Still has AC (often deleted during FMIC installs on these cars), but needs a re-gas

awesome car....just what i was after....

Are you interested in a swap for a MY99 WRX with cash on top?

NO TRADES

I don't live in Australia permanently - thus trades are as useless to me as this car, sadly

      Starting again

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      By Duncan · Posted

      Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kapr · Posted

      Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
