Option became available late S6 - version 3 in JDM terms - prior to SP debut, almost certain to be on the prototype from M2 in Japan, that program wound up end 94, early 95. Build sheets for SP have a mazda part no.

SP program was conceived by Allan Horsley of Tripple M Mazda Motorsport with support of Mazda Motorsport Australia.

"In 1995, the RX-7 SP was born. Something impressive about the RX-7 SP is how quickly and efficiently it was developed - local development and production of the parts obviously helped. With the introduction of 1995's new regulations, according to Mazda's PR Steve Rowland 'in February the SP was still an idea in Allan's (Horsley's) head'. Three months and apparently less than $ 10,000 in total development costs later, Horsley and head spanner Daniel Deckers rolled the RX-7 SP out of its Kingsgrove workshop - a potential GT-P and 12 Hour winner. "

I don't think any corporation can even think about a project for $10,000. Now, I don't doubt that after the 1st race part parts the dealers SP special edition had parts come from Japan; I think the homologation think of 35 cars was kind of lax with regard to timing and sourcing.
