I bought the car in france but one of the former owners had a house in Belgium.
I believe that 26 RX7 FD sold in france officially (between 1992 and 1995)

Welcome.

What about the ECU upgrade. With those mods you will need it.
And a boost controller also.
You should have then a similar setup to mine

Good choice on the cars though.
I currently own both - RX7 and Integra TypeR

Hi

It was sold between 92 and 95 only.
There is approximately about thirty rx7 Fd3s in France by counting the imports.

One finds them (used) between 14000 et 18000 euros on average (More if mileage is very low).

I see. It is there also a very rare car as i can see. Here in Greece costs almost the same amount 3-4k more depending on the situation of the car, except that we have almost 3 times or more sold FD's than in France How many are left on the roads? Unkown...
