My last post seems to have dissapeared...??

I've just moved to Ireland, and am thinking of getting another Rx7. Are there any Irish 7 owners on the boards?

I would like info on some good mechanics/suppliers of parts if anyone knows, thx!

 

check out the UK site www.mazdarotaryclub.com

I think you may have the biggest chance to find Irisch owners there

 

Thanks for the info Mireck!

Hi,

Only a handful of them here only ever seen 3 and 1 is nine, not aware of any specialists for servicing, aftermarket performance parts are easy enough to get here or in the UK. If i can help you please drop me a line.

Hi Andy,

You wouldn't happen to have the red 3rd gen. in the Blanchardstown/Corduff area would you? I've seen that one driving around here while walking to work.

Hi Marcel,

Apologies for the delay forgot I sent the last message!, I know that car it's not mine I live in the D15 area, mine is also a 3rd gereation but silver with tinted windows, it's rarely seen as it's not an everyday car only used the odd weekend been out once in 6 months! Time to take it out of the garage!

i have an x model 1992 for sale and also 1995 single trubo, if you would like to meet up just let me know, and you then can see the collection of rotarys i have.
hope to hear from you soon,
eddie

 

Hi eddie
Thanks for the welcome and the information, yea i would love to go over and see your cars i was in New Zealand for a year last year and i had a few spins in rotarys gotta say i prefer the old school rotors like the rx2, R100 and the rx3 idealy thats what id like to buy and restore it as best i can and port the engine so it has that great BAP BAP BAP sound but i doubt its possible to get one over here so i reckon ill go a 93-94 generation 3 rx7, just wondering are they hard to insure here?
Thanks
Pete

i'm after ordering a 1995 RX7 type R II 71,000km grade 4. should have it here in about 6 weeks, cant wait!! do you think i could bring it over to you when i get it for you to throw your eye over it??

 

also any good resources for reading about suggested maintainence programs such as kilometers per oil change etc? what type or oil do you guys recommend?

thanks

 

Hi John good choice on the rotary so i guess ill be paying over the 2k mark for insurance id recomend you get a quote from http://www.brittoninsurance.com/ they are based in donegal but very competetive,

what type of oil do you guys recommend?

they list the 1.3 RX7 as a 2.3 so they wont even quote me!! guess i'll have to stick with Quinn D

4 weeks till my Type R II lands in Dublin...

 

Mineral oil only 10w-30,10w-40,15w-40.

1750cc on the log book when you reg it in Ireland
