I like the blue one too. Minus the wing of course.

So, has anyone bumped into my diffuser yet?? Just curious. I'm still trying to hunt down the part. As the days go by, my hope fizzles.

Ok guys, here's another request.

I've noticed Mazdaspeed has rebadged a few of their parts to fit their present models. For example the handbrake they issued for the FD is the same one the issue for the NC Miata. So I'm ordering one of those here locally.
However, the shift **** seems to be a tougher find.

Does anyone know where I can find this ****? Part #: QFD1-17-520

I'm going to try to take a look around the present catalogue to see if they've rebadged this ****. But it looks like they made this **** specifically for the FD.

Thanks again everyone.

Hey guys!

Im looking for a very specific RHD part that could only be found on junk cars and junk dashes.

Its the center A/C vent face that faces the driver on the RHD cars.

I would be so thankful if someone had an extra dash they were willing to pry off that vent face ( with the blades that adjust flow and direction ) and send it to me.

If someone has this part, please PM me and let me know how much youre asking for the part.

Thanks!

Oh yeah, forgot to mention, USPS Shipment to the US as well =/

FS-- 2000 Mazda RX7

Bought from Mazda just over 2 years ago w/a factory warranty (expired in August 08)
i had the oil cooler replaced, the pillow ball bushings replaced and the transmission overhauled.
The transmission was serviced with new parts and has ZERO problems. it shifts very smooth. has approximately 3000 KMs.

JCI is due in July 09 I think but I will cover the costs of the JCI. It will pass no problem.
Mileage 117k KM or so

I did (another) compression test a last week and i had 100 ish PSI on all rotor faces of both rotors, which is well above the factory service manual minimum.
car hits full boost no problem, there is no breakup at all at any RPM range

The car came from mainland, so it has zero rust
I have done all the maintenance on this car. Oil has been changed religiously. (every 3000km or 3 months) I replaced the spark plugs and stock wires with good plugs and low impedance plug wires.

washed and waxed at least every 2 weeks.

History/Information


The car had a minor accident 6 or 7 months ago and i had to swap out the rear subframe, some control arms and some rims. I got the body checked at a local shop and they told me the frame was not damaged in any way. everything is good to go now.

I was hit on base about a year ago and had to get the rear 1/4 panel repaired. At the same time i had the entire rear bumper painted and debadged.

Ill update this as I can/remember more stuff. I know I am forgetting something. I have basically done everything I could to make sure the car runs healthy and strong. I paid alot for this car because I knew i was getting an excellent platform. There are very few FD's out there in the condition of mine.

Price

With everything listed above I want 12,500. There are some parts that I can remove and replace but I will not take anything less than 8500.

That is one nice as sleeper!
I think your price is very fair and more than a great deal for someone who might want to export it or use it here in Japan.
Bump for great car and price!

thanks man, problem is finding someone willing to pay the money. the extra and aftermarket parts that i have are worth well over the additional 4k im asking. even returned to stock that is a great deal. i see used 95-96 FDs go for 8+ at some of the off base dealerships.
