Yeah I like that kit I just met a guy a couple weeks ago in the process of finishing his up. Its the Pacifis Avatar sp? wide body.

I have the '82 & '83 factory brochures but nothing special.

 

I got a couple of issues of Rotoary Rocket magazine. They were my dad's and he got like 1 year free subscription when he got his 7 in 81

 

Don't feel guilty, I don't care at all, it's not like you knew the whole situation when you got that as a gift. I just get bummed cause I trusted a fellow Rx owner and then he went behind my back and did that. And then while I am workin on getting the real ones made every one is asking about the "fake ones". Just motivation for me to get going on them I guess.

 

Lets see some stuff that actually came from Mazda.

I also have a 1984 Mazda collectibles catalog with Mazda tee shirts and Rx-7 gloves and such.

I will scan that tonite.

Does anyone have any original dealership material?

I have my Finance contract from Nov 1983.

Lets see some pics guys.

I have an exact replica model of my car that I bought in Japan and I sucessfully imported both or them back to the U.S...LOL

 

not to hijack the thread but ^^^how hard was it to import the car?

 

hey no problem! im down for the idea of a database for oldschool rx7 mags and articles. it would be awesome to read about first gens as the cover story of the mag!

 

Oh yeah, I have the book that they had in the dealership that explains the different models and explains the rotary.

-additional set of 4 NOS standard alloys with original, unused spare Bridgestone tires
-european-spec, porsche-style SA door mirrors (pic)
-european-spec rear SA taillights (lense locations reversed between signal and brake) (pic)
-new leather wrapped, 79 Limited shift ****
-new leather-wrapped euro-spec RX8 rotor shift **** (5-speed, not 6...) (pic)
-JDM Savanna fender badges
-RX-2 air-foil/wing for driver's wiper blade arm (pic)
-OEM rear rubber ducktail spoiler (actually an FB part) (pic)
-factory SA illustrated US Parts Catalogue
-too many world-wide SA brochures to count
-OEM joystick SA remote mirror control switch assy (pic)
-JDM SA Overhead lighting console assy (comes with pivoting map light, etc.)

Rotarheads
more pics of stuff-
-sample of one of my NOS spare wheel/tire combos
(have 4 but would never run them on the road! Need a showroom or museum or something
-2nd set of euro-spec mirrors: these are the FB electric ones, brand new, that european and JDM RX7s got (they dumped the fender mirrors ion Japan in 83 I believe)
-haven't had the nerve to drill the holes to mount the spoiler!! So it and a spare sit in storage
-funky SA/JDM mirror switches. Found that my car was pre-wired to fit them!!
-also have a full set of NOS rotor and side irons for my SA, but they still reside in europe, so no pics, yet (friend there works for Mazda europe and was able to get them from Japan for me. He also got me the 5-speed rotary-shaped shifter, since the base RX8 in Europe came with the 5-speed)
enjoy-

They must not have been trying too hard to only hit 17.8 in the quarter. My bone stock '84 went 17.23 @ 82 mph on a humid night. Side step the clutch at 6500 rpm, grab second gear real quick and don't miss third!

that was using an 80 too which is suppose to be lighter

 

[QUOTE=jfachner72]I just got this in the mail. It was gift from Mazda in the 80's for filling out the survey on your vehicle.

Lets see some other cool 80's mazda stuff....


Hey, thats cool. I bought my 85 GLS last month and both original keys came on tags just like that. Guess the tags are original too.

 

I've got a bunch of scale models, a few old motorsports posters with FBs, and a hard copy of the Competition manual...

 

i got bored when i was cuting my lawn you can see FB in that pic

and me hanging with my rx7 with my hat over my hood


my FB hat i came with my FUBU shirt

 

I have the original bill of sale, The owners manual, The booklet that tells you where every mazda dealership in the united states it. The little folder the dealership gives you to hold your title and registration. A really cool retro keychain that says Rx-7 in the same font as the emblems on the fenders. And it is superimposed on a factory aluminum wheel. And a Chiltons manual that only covers 1979-1982. A pile or Pacific Magizines, all have the previously shown red turbo FB, the "Pacific Turbo Option" and a bunch of Rotary engineering mags. Oh and the Pacific magazines I got out of a '79 that had the Pacific 2+2 backseat. Thats all I can think of right now....
