Our little breakfast run

The Cape Town Mazda rotary club (here in South Africa) decided to have a breakfast run on sunday morning. Unfortunately it was raining so only three people (including myself) turned up. My white 1985 FB 13b Bridgeport, Craigw1's Silver FB 13b Peripheral Port and someone else came in thier MX-5 because their rx-7 had a bad water pump. We went for a great drive along the coastline (awesome winding roads over sea cliffs) and ended up at a fish and chips shop. The sun came out on our way and it turned into a beautiful day for driving. After we ate and had finished talking car stuff I asked Craig for a drive in his P-Port. My bridgeport isnt broken in yet so I was eager to go in a fast FB. Needless to say his car is FAST. And I think he could probably unlock some more power with a larger exhaust system.

Anyways here are some pics.

Couple of good looking 7s. I like how the air cleaner comes through the hood for some reason.

I agree

Having a running 7 outside USA/japan/au/PR is not easy

High rise manifold and a 4'(?) high K&N will do that! Quite a few rotarys here go for the filter out the bonnet, shakes from side to side too with thr PP pulsen hard, looks mean.
