Ex fd *****
for all US versions 255fwhp (and all worldwide to 1996)
for later Jspec Manual Trans cars 280fwhp (Base model & Autos stay at 255fwhp) rumor has the latest Bathurst Rs at closer to 325fwhp even though they officially (per Mazda) adhere to Japan's voluntary 280hp limit

Correct me if I'm wrong but I think It's 255 flywheel horses, which equates to about 185 to the wheels.

255 is engine crank HP right? Not HP at the REAR wheel. FWHP - you mean RWHP....
I think it's about 225 RWHP for stock 93-95.

The Series VII cars were all rated at 265 except for autos(255). The first Series VIII RS models('99) were rated at 280 and now Mazda is including it with the Type R models. The RB models are rated at 265.
The Bathurst R model has been disconinued and was just a Type R model variant.

Mike Putnam dyno'd ~220 rwhp stock, put a big fan on his IC and got more, then iced down his IC and got 255 rwhp. This helps explain why some RX-7's seem faster in the 1/4 or on the street than their horsepower would indicate, they can actually make a lot more horsepower when there is plenty of airflow or when the weather is colder than usual.

The Horsepower rating for the FD is always rated at the flywheel from the factory. Not to say these numbers from car to car don't differ. That is to be expected after all every car is not exacly the same.
