Don't know if it's been posted before but I found pics of the last of our species.

Not too many specs, but nice pictures for your desktop wallpaper.

Anyone know how to read japanese?

It looks like you can order a DVD with information on the Spirit R.

Of course, they probably wouldn't ship to the states even if you filled it out correctly.

screensaver

I had a Japanese co-worker, interpret the Japanese site for me.

He found a link to this cool screensaver.

http://www.rx-7.mazda.co.jp/img/spiritr.exe

Note, some of the scrolling text is in Japanese, but it is still a cool screensaver.

Yes, I know where. You can find them in Japan.

Actually I don't think they sell anything like that as parts to everyone. All the Red Stitch items are only for limited production cars, such as the lastest RZ(175 cars) and Spirit R(1500 cars). You will better off just get a standard FD Japanese steering wheel, or some aftermarket steering wheels.

Check with Jesse Lau, he can usually get anything for the right amount of $$$$! Here is a link to his web site. Just shoot him an email of what you are looking for, and he'll get back to you with a price and eta. I've gotten a few things from him, and he does a good job.

translation- funny stuff

Get babelfish to translate that site at

http://world.altavista.com/

Read the transalted text, it's a riot:
"In order ' for the tire to lick the road surface always, if it stands in the point of view that, moving ' it is the basis of the operation stability which is superior, riding comfort and opposite it is not something which stands"

and so on....


Goddamn that car is beautiful...

ok to ship the DVD you would have to pay what ever that costs, the brochure it free, but shipping for either is $23.00 One thing that was stated before, yes its all in Japanese, when I get my lang software, I will be making copies of info and having them avaible at a very low price.

I asked a company worker in the Japan branch. It is not a DVD, but VHS and a special poster.

He told me in order to get it, you have to enter the information in the website, then visit the mazda dealership.

If you get an error with the screensaver, your download may be corrupt. I was able to download and install the screensaver fine.

Shows some scrolling pics of all generations of RX-7, and finally the Spirit R at the end.
