130 is only for the 6 port version (81~85)..... the 4 port version (78~79) made the same as the US version did. There was an Odd ball year (1980) that came out with 4 port, and electronic ignition but it was only like a 10 or 15 hp jump.

Edit: FYI I have lived here since 85 and bought my first rx-7 in dec of 86.....
