I'm new to this club but I thought it was cool b/c I'm curently in the process of getting my 83 Mazda RX-7 home, I bought it for $250 from my uncle and am currently having the clutch put in it. The interior is a total mess but I think it'll be pretty easy sailing on that the engine compartment needs "cleaned" and the body needs minor things done to it like paint and new taillight housings b/c they are cracked. But other than that I'm a proud owner of an 83 Rx-7 5-speed stick, it's a sweet car and I love it.

Werd. Here's my '83, and if ya look close, you'll see a 79 in the background.....

The paint I think I'm gonna go with a basic flat black with a light metal flake clear coat, I have to completly redo the interior b/c most of it deteriorated and the passenger door does not have a panel, the drive shaft is seating behind the drivers seat, and well the stereo and it's components are in the driverside floor. So I'm doing a little work right now to get it fixed but, I'm in a sortage on the money side b/c someone busted the windshield on my 94 Mercury

I really like the red paint on your RX-7, those rims are awesome, right now I have the stock rims on mine but I joined the Army National Guard and will soon have the money to get my car the way I want it. funny story is I don't like imports but when I saw the rx-7 I knew I had to have it. I'm more of a chevy made in america kind of person but RX-7's are the best.

Rogue_Wulff

Thanks. I actually found the car sitting in an impound lot. $500 and I drove it home. That pic really doesn't show the wheels very good. Here's a better view:

J_Lee18m

that's so cool I'm buying mine for 250, but it needs work, I'm thinking about rims like that b/c I'm wanting a blacked out steathy look for mine. I want it not only to go fast but to look fast when it's stopped.

Rogue_Wulff

If you want some black rims, at a decent price, check out diamond racing wheels. They offer a black powdercoated steel rim, 15x7, with the 4x110 bolt pattern (rare, only used on carbed Mazdas) for under $100 each. In case you don't already know, rims for these are VERY scarce these days, due to the 4x110mm bolt pattern.

J_Lee18m

yeah I've notice that the rims are hard to find I was checking the rims out at the "Big O" across town but they didn't have anything. So I figured the rims I'd wait on until I get the rest of the car done. I have to sell my subs and get smaller ones b/c I don't think to 12" Sony xploids would look good in a car with so limited space. But thanks for the advice on the rims that helps a ton.

Naegleria_Fowleri

Have to agree with that. As much as I love my '84, my '83 is my true love.

J_Lee18m

well I never liked import cars very much, I've always loved chevy trucks, but when I saw my uncle 83 RX-7 I knew I had to have or at least drive it, but he sold it to me for 250 and I'm still paying on it. but yeah other than that I have a lot of work left to do on it
