Which one is faster, if there is a faster.

Do they have a lots of difference except for the suspension.

thanks

 

same speed... the only differences (other than suspension) will jive with the other trim levels. 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.
That's all I can think of right now that some people don't know about if I think of anything else I'll let you guys know.

 

On paper and assuming that everything is stock and everything equal, an R1 will be very slightly faster. The R2 disadvantages over the R1 are more weight(another 14 lbs for the '94) and the softer suspension setup.

 

what about the base model, is it just as fast

 

Sounds like a load of horseshit to me. Your proof?

 

*All* FDs (Base, Touring, R1, R2, PEP, PEG) were rated @ 255 hp, so you tell me.

 

 

on a road track though suspension wise the r1 r2s may have a very slight advantage. and maybe launching as well i dont know i dont think it has ever been tested.

 

best functional feature is the twin oil coolers on the r1/r2. oh and the lip everyone now wants...

 

The only difference between the R1 and R2 is that R2 the shocks are softer then the R1. Thats the only difference between the two.

 

Better do some research killa. You are way off. Read the post by Brian above. In addition to all that, the 94-95 cars had slightly taller & softer springs.

 

My question is, why is this still in advanced tech section?

This is FAQ material.
