I think Sport Compact Car is the most informative right now. Turbo magazine has some rotary coverage, but it's packaged in a more "rice hyped" way. SPC is more down to earth.

SCC is probably my favorite out there so far, past 2 editions have had a little 2 or 3 pager on a nice 7 along with some pics. The newest one has 4 rx7's through it if i remember right...

I've only gotten the SCC with the RX-4 in it. The shipping time is horrible and one time it took like over 2 months and then i got 3 mags in 3 days and it was duplicates from the past months.

Hey! I'm still trying to find the Volume #1. I have Volume 2, but I am having the hardest time trying to find the first one. The local Japanese supermarket/bookstore does haven't the first volume. Is the first one out of print?

Neo or JSpecRZ, do you know if they are still available in your area? If so, I would like to purchase a copy from you.

Hey DomFD3S
try some of the Mitsua Marketplaces (aka Yaohan). If the one's by u don't have it, try the Costa Mesa one. I've heard of a Yaohan up in Vancouver, too. They usually have those, or can tell u where they dump them when they get old.

I know. I go to the one in Torrance and they definitely do not have Volume 1 anymore. That is where I got Volume 2 though. I've been looking for several months now, hoping that they would get one.

I didn't know there was one in Costa Mesa. Do you happen to know the address?

Import Tuner isn't that bad. In the past few issues they have had a few sevens in them. I will admit it is more ricey and they usually don't have coverage of 7s. Super Street has also had more 7s in it lately.

I didn't ask. Didn't know.

I'm pretty sure it is out of print too. But, I'm just hoping that I come across one.

Wow! I'm not that desperate for the magazines. The only magazine that I want from that collection would just be volume 1.

I have Vol.2 and it's not really good. I Like the Hyper rev FD special more.
