If you need help, definitely look in the Archives first... Chances are, whatever you need help with, you can find there.

Sweet FB, take good care of her.

 

You've got my seats! ...except mine are trashed and kinda sketchy to sit on...

...interesting method for securing the car to the trailer, btw... never seen it done like that before...

...oh, and welcome

 

TWR?

I like the wheels

 

Never heard of a TWR Rx-7 either you have an extremely rare car, like a company called TWR modified it. Or the lady who gave it to you got BS'd by someone. I like it, it has a very tough look to it.

A 1980 I assume?

 

Looks very nice indeed.

 

the TWR version stands for Tommy Wilkinsure Racing. this is the company that produced the rx-7 racing cars. to celebrate their success they produced 200 versions for a road car.

 

Man that is bad *** that you got that car. You should fully restore it. Completely stock and original. Nice find though.

 

Nice find.... restore that beast!!

 

whats so special about the twr version? is it modified in any way or was it just a badging option? either way, its a really neat car!!! good luck with it and dont be afraid to ask for help.

 

from what i can gather the alloys, blue decals are one of the things that come from the TWR version, also the engine has been tweeked to produce higher torque and bhp, but some more research and ill ley you all know the figures

also thanks all for the great comments, i can see this website being good help.

 

It looks like it had the air pump removed, and it has a nice header. What kind of carb does it have? I am assuming maybe a modified Nikki? I think you should try to find documentation on this bad boy. We at the 7club are always interested in all the different kinds of 7's out there.

 

i will do, you should find the docs on here soon when i go and retrieve them from my mates house.

 

its got headlight squirters???!!!!


i feel cheated that mine is lacking this incredibly useful feature!

just kidding. odd thing to have if thats what they are
