Does anyone know if the bolt pattern on the mazda gxl 87 S4 is the same as like a honda civic like standard 4X100? Just curious and testing waters... because i can pick a pair of 17 inch up with new tires, in great shape for 300 thanks let me know

the four bolt pattern was on the base models or "SE" not the GXL. that lug size is 4x4.5 which is 4x114.3 in metric. Some hondas so come in a 4x114.3 lug size. Make sure the offset is correct though.

I knew you wouldnt want the 14s lol.

not true man... i just ran into a good deal... hopefully they fit... so i just have to find a bolt pattern of rims that fit. So mine must be a base model or a SE... but i mean that shouldnt change the swap instructions right?
Still is a S4 i do know that much for sure... so either way if it is a base,gxl,se etc... if it is a 86-87 it is a s4 and would need a s4 TII motor?

You can do an S5 motor, the ecu needs changed as well as some wiring. Not exactly sure what is needed though. Eric, Jason or Nick would be best to answer those questions. We should meet up some time and we can talk cars.

So the title i guess says that it is a mazda RX7 1.3 ltr N/a and it is labeled as a Coupe doesnt say Gxl is that going to do anything to my swap plans?

I think most of the time it will either say turbo or non turbo, other than that it wont get into details about what exact model it is. If you can take some pics of your car and post them up we may be able to help you out. You can also maybe list options you have and that may be able to help out osme as to figuring out which model you have.

Hey Ian well what do you mean by options... i mean i dont have a sunroof, and no power windows, there is no rear wiper, also i do see that under my center cousole where the adjustable suspension was their is plugs there, not hooked to anything, and also the back are the plugs...

I just need to order rims and it is hard for me to know what size will really fit, and call me dumb i never really paid any attention to the wheels lol... mainly learning engines,wiring stuff like that...lol... but can some one explain what the "Off set size is" i am sure it is something in easy meaning just a word for technical use... thanks guys again for all your help on building up my FC

No sunroof and 4 lug wheels means you have a base model, bootom end of the model line. 7s are wired with the same harness so options are easier to install at the factory and less inventory to track and carry.
