More (newbie) questions!

A few more questions;

1. What does FD mean?
2. Whats the difference between R1-R3-and Touring?
3. When looking for used RX7's online/papers, is there a way I can determine wether or not the car is turbocharged?

Thanks for your help again

Wasn't aware of that. I thought they made some w/o turbochargers.. Also, they made RX7's until '99?

1.) FD is part of the vin/code, it means nothing.
2.) 1993 had the R1, 1994-1995 had the R2, which was a slightly revised R1.
3.) Already answered.
4.) They were only brought here up til '95, but were made longer in Japan.
5.) Search can answer alot of your questions such as these.

The entire VIN code means something.. every character in it has a point.. except for the 9th digit.. its calculated mathmatically from the rest of the VIN. For example the 1st is where the car was manufactured and the 10th is what year the car is.
