looking for parts

I remember some tiem back there was a post about place that is able to search salvage yards and I could not find the post.
I was wondering if anyone knows of some sites out there that allow searching of salvage yards for parts on my RX-7 or used parts for that matter

I hope that helps you out. Good luck finding your parts.

Maybe you can tell us when you do find such a source!

All of the "big" Mazda recyclers (Mazda Recycling in Rancho Cordova, CA and MazMart[?] in Georgia) charge good money for those parts.&nbsp My experience has been a good T2 aluminum hood is going to cost you at least $150-$200 and similar prices for a good transmission.

It's the smaller (local) wrecking yards that you might find prices like that, as they don't have a clue what those parts are worth.

Another good source is to check the Parts Trader or even this forums own ForSale section.&nbsp Are these still around???

trust me gys if I find the info I will share it
all I know is I saw these post some time early dec or late nov about getting some parts and a guy had like 3 different ones listed and one was thepartstrade then there were like 2 others that search salvage yards through the country
still looking myself though cause there was some good stuff on there


and reTED yeah most of the parts I was looking for went for like 150+ but a few prolly as you said the smaller yards had them for a cheap price

though could also be something wrong with the part I guess
