They *look* like they are for an FC. No such thing as OEM coilovers. Closest thing to that would be the Mazdaspeed coilovers which these are not.

The shocks are probably dead, making them worthless.

The seller is from MALAYSIA.
I would never buy from a seller like that.

i bet you they're crap. There's no such thing as OEM coilovers on RX7's. they're probably some cheap coilovers and painted it. i suggest to look for something with a reputable brand name and im pretty sure if they're expensive, you'll get your money's worth.

They look similiar to my KnightSports set up, but mine are red with KnightSports all over them. Also mine have knightsports stamped on the front camber adj. Mine are 8way adjustable and get VERY stiff, my car does not squat. They keep the car tight.

i think they may have been shocks someone has had made into coilovers. looks like the threads have been cut and the rest has been made up to fit to some pillow mounts someone has bought. almost looks like tokico
