Mazdaformance is the cheapest for OEM ones.

Mazdatrix will have them as well as many autoparts stores.

I don't get the obsession with online parts.

Drive to shop. Buy one. Drive home.

Drive to shop. Talk to some guy who won't understand that there is a difference between the turbo rx7 and n/a rx7.

Finally get him to understand.


Have him fiddle around with his computer trying to find the part I need.


Have him say oh, you can't get that, it's part of a 100 dollar kit or some bs.

... Walk away.


All the shops around here are like that.. it's so much easier just to order online and not deal with it.

I got my fuel filter from Advance auto parts direct. You could probably get one from autozone as well. There's nothing ultra special about our fuel filters. Just ask and see if they have one.

I know what you mean about the parts places people, but usually for filters they have books out. Look up your part number and ask for it at the front counter if it isn't on the shelf. That's what I did the last time and it worked much better and was cheaper than getting one online after all was said and done.

mazdaformance.com is you cheapest bet.

Yeah, using online systems for non - special parts is kinda like pissing in the wind. Unless you are saving big money.
