It will if you sell the FC and get an FD to fit the cage.

on the page "Mk1" Rx7 shows a 1st gen and "Mk2/3" a 3rd gen car as example
I wrote them and here is the answer:

I am afraid that we do not have a roll cage to suit this model.
The MK2/3 is actually only a MK3 (1992 - 2002 )
Apologies for the confusion caused.


question was if the differences are to big to make it fit in a fc anyway
because wheelbase heigth etc are almost the same

If it meets your safety requirements, you could probably order an Autopower cage from one of the distributors.
