Part Number help

The Mazda parts catalog right now, only goes back to 1986, but Mazda has parts for these older cars, and to get them you need to bring the part numbers. If anyone needs help finding part numbers i have the same catalog, Foxed.ca - Mazda RX-7 Manuals

but i'm sitting in front of the Mazda dealer website, and i can do availability (and price) also. i'm happy to do it, its almost my day job anyways

Ya that is awesome. I will let you know of anything. About a year ago I ordered almost $1k worth of OEM parts from my local dealer. At first dealer guy thought I was crazy when I showed up with this list of obscure parts, but once he found out it was for an FB he understood.

Also a good thread to point this out in, Mazda can still get most fasteners. So right out of the parts catalog I had no issues having them order me important nuts/bolts etc.

Much appreciated. Might I suggest that we post in this thread some of the more comprehensive lists that we (as engineers) love to create for ourselves? Every sub assembly I have rebuilt over the years has an accompanying parts catalog diagram highlighted, edited for NLA and available parts and notes about sources etc. We could break it into sub sections and keep a master pdf (searchable) with the original catalog page and an edited one for the newer information. It would take a long time, but it would make the information more accessible for those that are not familiar with cross referencing part numbers across different catalogs by hand to find things. That would take some of the enjoyment out of it though.

i've got some half done sheets like that, sometimes getting a format i'm happy with takes a couple tries

the simpler ones end up like this:

FYI for those that don't know... Ray Crowe provides the club steep discounts on parts for RX7s and other Mazdas. He has 2 FDs last time I checked. One with a 3 rotor. His prices are almost as good as Mazda Motorsports and certainly the cheapest that I've seen outside of them.

Contact him via email crowe.ray@aol.com
I forgot his phone number...

Looks good!

My list is a bit similar. Sort of for a rear end overhaul plus soft brake lines plus misc hardware. Also fastener sizes. And mazda oem bolts!!

you are in luck! they come with the protector, which is available, 8871-50-380B

Mazda USA has none in stock but its available, and Japan is actually cheaper https://www.amayama.com/en/part/mazda/887150380b

@j9fd3s I know this threads been dead for 3+ years but I'm wondering if you can find anything (even a description) for part number 8871-55-482. Should be the dashboard/instrument cluster voltage regulator for an SA. I can't find anything anywhere, even what the voltage output is. Any information would help me on this quest. Thanks!

The parts fiche says its for an analog clock equipped cluster and lists another P/N for the digital clock. Shouldn't be too hard to find another cluster to try and swap regulators if you suspect its bad.
