difference between 93 and 94
 
for 94, they recalibrated the suspension settings on the base and touring models (made them slightly softer). They also reduced the rear anti-roll bar from 19mm to 16mm. The R2 model remained the same.

Thats the only functional changes I know about.

The 93 had a different coolant than the 94. The coolant from 93 isn't made anymore.

What makes you think your car is a '93 and not a '94? '94 cars have build dates from '93. Best way to verify car year is to look at the last letter in the VIN. '93's are P and '94's are R

rynberg: no such thing as a '93 R2 model. The 94 R2 model got softer suspension settings over the '93 R1 as well as getting 16lbs heavier.

Mazda made numerous changes within the model year so you can't really make one perfect list. Do a search since this question has been asked before.

From another post:

Just to pass my knowledge on from being a former Mazda Service manager this is some of the stuff that's different as the years went by, this will apply to all RX7's not just R1,R2's, touring,PEP,base, etc.

1. 94-95 Instrument cluster is different due to the fact of having no small indication lines between numbers
2. 94-95 Have smaller rear swaybars.
3. 94-95 Have different dash panels in the way that they're not painted and won't peel like the 93's
4. 94-95 Have 2 additional braces under the rear subframe to minimize the rear subframe from flexing under load(Mostly to try and prevent axle hop)
5. 94-95 Have dual airbags.
6. The EGR system on the 94-95 is different.
7. The 93's were the only ones that came with chrome colored intake manifold nuts.
8. The 93's intake elbow on the throttle body was grey colored, not black like the 94-95.
9. Touring didn't exist in 95 it was replaced by the PEP package, even though the PEP package was introduced earlier in 94.
10. Only Tourings came with glass sunroofs.
11. Only 93 offered a CYM(Competition Yellow Mica) on R1 models
12. There was no white RX7 in 93, only 94-95.
13. R1 and R2's only came in Yellow, Red, Black, and Silver.
14. 95 RX7's used R134 A/C refrigerant, not R12 like the 93-94.
15. 95 RX7's also used a lighter ABS system than the 93-94.


edit: This is from another person's post, I'm not nor have I ever been a Mazda parts manager. ;) (I did, however, have a summer job as the lot boy at a Mazda dealership in '95 hehehe)

I remember that they made a few pieces changed in the cooling system from 93 model to 94 model since the 93 model was easy to get overheated. Can't remember it exactly though
