Thumbs up a geeky idea from a geek :)

ok here it goes. I was thinking i was gonna make a CD that has all the important information i could get on first generation Rx-7's wiring diagrams, Workshop, manuels, etc., etc. I was wondering if anyone knew of anything else taht whould be useful on this cd. I would distribute it relitivly free of charge prehaps just to cover the cost of cd's and postage. Any input would be helpful thanks

Are those CD's for real? What kinda quality are they? If they're equivalent to the factory manuals, I think I'll get one.. I've seen them.. the 1979-1995 all reference ones on E-Bay for like 5 bucks...

I currently have all the PDF's downloaded from this one site..

I would definitely go for one of those. That would be a very, very useful tool. Another thing you might want to include would be rebuild tutorials for the major stuff like shock/strut replacement (actually, I can write that one if you want me to, since I just finished mine), OMP rebuild, Rear axle swap, etc...

Sounds like a nice idea. Mazda literature is something that every member could use to help him/her out with the Rx-7. I'll back ya.

You've gotta get some good 1st gen movies on there. Some clips of old TV commercials with or about 1st gens would be awesome, not to mention clips of 1st gens in older TV shows or movies.
