Holiday Gift Ideas for FD RX7 Owners

Every year I have to rack my brain and figure out what S2000 thing would be an actual appreciable gift for my sibling. I always wish there was some kind of thread or forum that just had "Great S2000 Gift Ideas" by actual owners, so I figure there are probably friends of rotary owners wondering the same thing.

What kind of gifts have you guys gotten in the past that was RX7 related?
What kind of RX7 gifts would you like to have gotten if people were aware you wanted it?

Here are a few that my friends have gotten for me over the years.

Tomica RX7s

One of the few diecasts that have Montego Blue and also have both USDM+JDM bumpers and wing options. You have to scrape Ebay for these and they're a little pricey but they're pretty detailed.



Rotary Socks (
Amazon Amazon
)


3D Printed Rotor Coasters (Etsy)


A lot of drain bolt crush washers and oil filters (Atkins Rotary, Racing Beat)

My wife gave me this several years ago. A Kyosho die-cast. Don’t recall the exact scale but it’s good size and LHD…which I think is at least unusual. I’ve seen these since but they always seem to be RHD.
I think she found it on Ebay too. This is just a display I conjured up but still have the box somewhere.

My wife got me a nice keychain at one of the Sevenstock shows years ago. I think it was from Rotary13B1.com.

The Yamaguchi book is always a good call.

I’ve only received a few things. The smaller cheaper stuff. The bigger 1:18 stuff I picked up. But the 1:24 stuff and smaller were all gifts given by friends or family.





I’ve had my Kyosho FD a little longer than my real one. I think by 6 months or something like that. The newer autoart one has maybe 3yrs now. Along with the Initial D version.

One of the coolest RX7 gifts I’ve seen is a custom rotary-themed wall clock. A friend gave me one, and it’s got the rotor housing shape with the time markers integrated—super clean and a great conversation starter.

Another idea could be a digital frame loaded with photos of RX7s, car meets, or even their own ride. You can check out www.nixplay.com for something like that. It’s a fun way to show off their passion without taking up too much space.
