Dave

 

absotively, posilutely, 100%, NO, damnit!

 

Maybe you just couldn't find the turbo's? There was never an FD made without turbo's.

 

Mazda never made a N/A FD.

However, there are some N/A FD's running around (you can find videos of them on the net), but it was done after-the-fact.

 

Yeah and N/A 20b FD's are probably more common than N/A 13B-REW's, now just 13B.
But they all seem to be p-ported

 

I've had so many people ask me if I got the turbocharged one..."they never made one with turbos..."mine has the stock supercharger though...

 

Yours has the stock supercharger?! Man I should have waited for that model! These turbos suck!

 

yeah someone once came pulled up to me and asked if it was turbo. apparently he didn't thought it was the "one without the turbo" because i didn't have a "turbo" badge on the back... guess it's natural cuz all the other tt cars have some emblem of turbo...

also a shop called "anniversary" in japan specialized in N/A rx7's just FYI. they get to listen to roataries redline ~12000 rpm :O must sound like a sports bike...

 

just curious. whats this about a stock supercharger? what year is this?

 

It was a joke...

 

our engine model is 13B-REW.... "W" stands for double, or twin. hence all FDs are W, or, twin turbo.

i remember reading that somewhere when researching about the Cosmo motor.

 

haha i just re-read my last post and goddamn i sound like a moron with all those typo's...

btw good explanation...majikeye

 

so does anybody know that the designator for the new renesis motor will be? ive been wondering. . . 13b-ren??

paul

 

yeah I've definitely had people say "it got turbos?"

 

Im a newb... know FD has to do with 3rd Gen but what does it stand for? I apologize in advance.

 

third generation of rx7s

 

FD3S is the mazda's codename for the 3rd gen rx7's....it's not an acronym for anything

 

Everytime someone's turbo blows out, a NA FD is born

 

Mine has the aftermarket turbo-super-nitro-charger! sHiFt /\/\aD kWiK yO!

 

Sorry for diggin this up, but I've been looking for this link since I saw this thread and I finally found it - https://www.rx7club.com/forum/showth...threadid=47225

 

I think people just suspect there to exsist a NA FD just because all the other Japanese sports cars came in both NA and TT models.

Long time ago... even I thought there was a NA FD. It's just ignorance. No harm done!

 

Perhaps 13C since it's a major revision? I don't think the renesis would have any additional letters like "-REW" tacked on to it (Wasn't the FC engine just called 13b?)...

 

one of my dumb friends who doesnt know **** thinks there is a n/a FD, single turbo FD, and a Twin turbo FD. and he thinks that nothing can ever be faster than a twin turbo rx7. i always tell him single turbo rx7 and he gets pissed off and i laugh cuz he dont know ****.

 

13B for NA and 13BT for the turbo

 

In 1994, I had a huge debate with a dealer while on a 3rd gen test drive. He was sure the 1993 3rd gens were supercharged and 1994s are twin turbo.

I even opened the hood and showed why he was wrong. He did not believe me. On a funny note, the engine blew an oil line on the test drive.
