OK Happy and proud of my 1993 FD-R1

Thanks to RX7 Club to allow me on this forum.
Lots of good information and great people here on this site.
Hi my name is Walter.
I am a Soldier stationed in Oklahoma but originally from Puerto Rico (which Rotary is in my blood... There are not many FDs (or RXs at all) in Oklahoma but I am working on it to get more friends into it.
It's a lovely great car and definitely a performance ride in all aspects.
It would be nice to know events in North Texas and Oklahoma since I am close to the Texas border.
A'right my friends... until next time...Walter

RX7 R1 Red
I have it for 2 weeks and I am already working on: Racing Beat Exhaust, APEXi Intake, Improve Cooling system(challenging! Lol), Gauges, fuel pump, down and mid pipe, and finally APEXi Power FC & Commander and in a few months the intercooler!

Yeah you're right... I will, thanks...

@thegreatkao - this emblem came with the car and I don't know where they got it... I kept it because it looks good... it's a Mazda Rotor Emblem...

Thanks everyone for your compliments and support!

Walter welcome to the forums! It looks like you have a very clean R1 that will be a good starting platform. If you need any help or questions with the Rotary or looking for New/Used parts feel free to contact us.

We would love to help you build the car along the way!


Enjoy it and be safe

Nice I almost pulled the trigger when I won the first eBay listing he had for 12k. That is ok I got a nice one in Texas with a fresh rebuild. What turned me off was that he never rebuilt engine. So I was hesitant. Welcome to the club
