GO BUY THIS BOOK - Yamaguchi 2nd gen book
Hey 1st gen owners.
There's a BIG SECRET I'm sharing with you. The 2nd gen yamaguchi book has an EXCELLENT chapter on the GSL-SE, J-SPEC 12A turbo, and a few other rarer 1st gens. Great pics too.
Also go order that new brian long rx-7 book NOW!!! from www.amazon.com . It's EXCELLENT as well and has great pics.
Since there's no color 1st gen "coffeetable" books, these are the next best thing.
Note the yamaguchi book is out of print, so you're competing with the 2nd gen owners in finding them.
I do have a "source" that can get the yamaguchi book if you're dying to get one now. Otherwise keep your eyeys peeled
Here's an ebay auction with one.

Actually, Yamaguchi wrote a book on first gens, I don't know if its the same way (he actually published the book when FC's where releashed (85-86) and did it about the prototyping), but the first gen yamaguchi book is quite rare, and if you EVER see one, make an offer.
The 2nd gen book goes for $80 or $85 USED on amazon, and above $50 on ebay, you can find it in many libraries, and i love mine to death. I actually frown upon other books I've seen on FCs (Gold Series in particular). I had seen many of the pictures in the book before, and it was all black and white, but the yamaguchi had so many pictures, and i had never seen almost any of them, and the book is in color.
Great book, get it if you see it also, and I have yet to get the third gen book because they where out of it when I went to SpeedNation, but it goes for $35 new from them ( www.speednation.com ) so I got a 1/5th scale wankel engine model instead

Yep, that was the first book I bought after I got my first RX-7, I have about every book printed on RX-7's except the one that cost like $89.00 with the blue 3rd Gen on the cover. Maybe for Christmas....
