1985 Savanna GT-X Rotary Turbo emblem
Hi Guys n Girls my first post, hope you can help me. I'm looking for this emblem that came in the 1985 Mazda RX 7 Savanna GT-X. Been looking around the site for days and cant spot any pictures of cars with the emblem.
http://www.thehulltruth.com/members/...vanna-1985.jpg http://imcdb.org/images/121/727.jpg look at 9:17 in youtube video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bacOv...os=47wVazkYKUY at 0:17 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-DgDl...os=B7osR2mdenY and in http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s1MRh...os=2wzcFPhxl4o I never seen the emblem up close and don't know what it looks like. I'm thinking it looks like this air filter cover. http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3236/...ff77524da2.jpg Dose anyone have a link to a picture , or a site where one can purchase this emblem thanks. |
I could be wrong but I think it's part of the taillight I don't think you can get just the emblem by it's self. I'm pretty sure you need jdm s4 lights.
|
Hi tevan thanks for the reply . You are correct after further reading found out they did come in the jdm s4 lights. Also found this photos in older post.
https://www.rx7club.com/attachment.p...entid=74347jpg http://us1.webpublications.com.au/st...6/1647_9mg.jpg I'm going to try and recreate the badged to be made into a custom Rotary Turbo vinyl sticker to look as stock as possible. Do you know if the color is Red or more orange like the Turbo logo in the inter cooler cant really tell by the pictures. Thanks again. |
In the bottom photo you posted, it definitely appears to be a decal rather than something embossed or molded into the taillight. You should be able to make a nice vinyl replica.
Just a guess here, but I'd bet the true color is red rather than orange. Red was a very popular accent color on car emblems in the 80s; more so than orange. I wouldn't be surprised if the colors in the earlier photo of the engine and airbox are slightly off. |

Hate to bump an old thread, but did anything ever become of a vinyl repro for this??
|
Gonna bump this again.
If nobody has made them I might have access to a vinyl cutter to make some decals. |

Poor poor Americans. I've got two sets of s4 tails.bought for 10nzd which is like 7 usd. One has the decal. I'll take a better photo with a measure in the photo when I can be bothered to go out to the garage. :)

Saw these on EBay. They are from a "SA22C Series 3 RX7" in Oz.
|
^ Holy crap!! Almost $200 for a couple of badges? Wow...
|
Did anything come of these? I quite fancy a set.

I know the color is a little off yet working on that. What else do you thinkyou no price set yet working on the vector first
Attachment 712881 |
Looks good, but it needs the black outline IMO.

I got these done through a friend some years ago, I might still have some left if people are interested. |
Been lookin for someone to make these for a while. Post this in the s4 lovers thread those guys will flip.
|
I'm interested but the letters don't match 100%...the inside of the B is not shaped the same. I'm still interested. Where can I play an order?
|
They're currently getting re-drawn. Once done I'll post them with a price!
|
Interested as well. As long as it is getting re-drawn, I'll throw in my .02. I'm not a fan of the 'T' in turbo. I prefer it with the symmetrical pattern shown in Jagfc3s's post #31 where the leading edge of the T-lines up with the slant of the R in 'Rotary'.
|
Still interested, but as I mentioned before I think they'd be better with the black outline?
|
I want one too :]
|
Guys if you like my vector the way it is I can plot them on a dark red im also working on exact copy of the original with the slanted t. Anyways if I my logo is ok ill cut them tonight
|
I'm in for a couple as well. Preferably as close to the original as possible. :) Great work, BTW!
|
Bumping for update. Anyone make some yet?
|
been busy with school. Hoping to get these done soon time. Someone was mentioning the symmetrical look for the T, the original isn't like that so I don't really have any intentions on straying to far from what it is now. Just made more precise, less fat more slick.
|
Any update?
|
I'm interested in one or two, but in an orange. Maybe two in red and two in orange?
|
|
^ I'm with Fry!

Reproduction fender decals would be a great addition to the Rotary Turbo decal. DO WANT!
