FB Options/Standard Features

I know Icemark has scans of the FC brochure pages, but I want to see if anyone here has the SA/FB ones, especially for 1982 and 1984. Thanks.

I don't think you'll find this listed as a standard feature anywhere, but I'll give it to you just cause I'm a nice guy...










Standard Feature on all RX-7's: Totally kicking everyone's *** and being all badass and like "Hello corner, my name is FB and I have a 50/50 weight distribution ratio, and I'm going to totally rape you," then it just fuggs the corner up and the corner's like "AAHHRRG! You fugged me up!"


AAAnywho, the closest thing to a brochure that I have from my 82 FB is the original owner's manual...

A) 50/50 weight ratio sucks

B) 1st-gens didn't have it anyway

C) The best 1st-gens were the SAs, not FBs.

FB set the standard for future RX 7s by having 50/50 weight distribution.
How do you figure 50/50 sucks?! You must just drag race (rolls eyes)
The SA was just a baby RX 7. FBs are the best, everyone knows that. But that one is your opinion

OMG, 51/49. Sorry if my numbers are so astronomically out of range.
Also, explain the whole 50/50 sucks theory? I'm at a loss for that one.

I tried searching google and here, all I found were Icemark's FC ones. I'm talking about the thing that has the chart with the different colored columns going down that shows what models came with what. I don't know, it could have looked different for FB's I guess.

It says the GSL-SE comes standard with tinted glass....Am I the only one with GSL-SE windows that have no tint?

Maybe it's just a tiny bit of tint...
