Probably the only rare part that I've got is the glass sunroof on my 83 GS. And it isn't really all that rare. I still love it though.

My spare wheel is in mint condition, I don't think its ever been used. Original owners manual, service book. Does an intact rats nest count?

My '7 will be clicking over to 100,000 Kms today on the way home from work

My 79 and 80 have the original, never used spares. The 79 even has the tire tool with it. I have the red piece between the taillights on the 80 that says Mazda RX-7. I have all the original paperwork for the 80 including the Cali emmisions information (all the books are mint). I have the jack and tire tool for my 83. Original Clarion stereo for the 82. Don't know how rare these things are, but I thought they were cool! There is more, but too much to list...

I have an '82 GS-L, fed by the 650cif holley carb and Arkay turbo kit with the Rajay blower, with all the original installation instructions and all information on the Kas Kastner RX-7 project and horsepower gains of the set-up.

I'm not sure how rare this kit is, but the turbo just went, so I'll need a replacement if I even want to drive it again, as the carb just drowns the engine.

I've got both styles of sunroof, solid and glass, so I'm not sure if anyone can consider them 'rare'.

Those seats are the PIMP
I think those might be the coolest thing I saw on this thread.

My SA has the 4 Speed trans in it. I know that's probably getting harder to find. My 83 S came with Steelies, all 4 centercaps, and Mazda wheel covers. I've never seen another 7 with the wheel covers.

Can of touch up paint from Mazda, thats about the only thing I have that I dont see listed here...

I would kill for an SA with a 4-speed, I found one not that long ago. It was really rusted out, and I asked the owner of the property about it, said a friend of his was storing it. He said he would talk to him about it, the next day I drove by and it was gone....

Forgot to mention the SA has the original Clarion AM/FM radio with no cassette deck. Still works great too, but only thru 1 speaker LOL

Druken, I suspect your horn button and wheels are from pre-7 Mazdas. I'm under the impression that Mazda dropped the Hiroshima Motors logo before the 7s were introduced. I'm not sure when they changed the corporate name to Mazda or if the 2 coinsided.

I have a few rare parts. They are either dealer options, like the center finisher for the tail lights and the luggage bar, or after market like the wheels an Kaminari kit.


Dealer option finisher and luggage bar. Bought these off eBay a number of years ago. And no the center piece is not for sale but I will make some if enough members want one.




15" rims, left one is an SSR, right one is an Epsilon. Have a full set of 4 for each and not for sale, lol.




This is the Kaminari kit. I have 4 of the 5 original pieces. Missing the rear diffuser that goes under the rear bumper. This kit and the Epsilons will eventually go on the turd brown GSL that will some day replace the FC as my DD.

Any UK owners here? I'd like to see more of the Elford Turbo RX-7s.

I love this front spoiler. Too bad it was only sold in the UK and in limited quantities.

Id like to see an original Pacific Turbo, those must be rare as f**k...

If we are talking wheels, I have a set of Riken meshies, and they are getting hard to come by... I would love a set of gold ones... but I dont have the cash to drop on them right now.

as per request, heres a shot of my set of staggered SSR's. they were offered in japan for non -se 7s for a few years in the mid 80s. they are true 3pc 14s, fronts in 8in rears in 8.5in. shortly after production ssr stopped making the RS-8 and they were discontinued until the late 80s early 90s when RSwatanabe picked up the molds and now make them in 14-18in sizes

The deal is, you buy my racecar for a 20B and some cash.

I have a rare item. It is not necessarily a part but it is Rx-7 related. It's a totally awesome only halfway redneck belt buckle.
