72 rx3
i got a 72 rx3 today its a NA setup, im going to restore it, i was wondering if i can turbo the motor, it has webber cars and runs great. All it needs is to redo the interior, but i want to make this a sweet track/show car. im not to familiar with mazdas, i am a Honda man..lol I wanted something rare and rwd..
what can i do with this?
thanks

I hope your not like the other honda guys, who buys them self an old school rotary only to sell it with in a month or two. There's been a few that came and gone....Cant build these cars from a catalog and parts are hard to come by.
My advice to you is take your time and visit the classified section for some hard to find item, do some research here and ask question. There's a few members here's who's very knowledgeable about these cars, Wacky is one of them just don't let his smart *** remarks get's to you. With that said welcome to the forum, oh and one more thing turbo efi is the way to go

I hope that since it is a true 72 (first US year) that you keep it original and restore it. Everyone is right in that you can't find a catalog and buy most of the parts off the shelf, be careful you will find that there are some places where you can get parts but they are substandard and not that good. There are also excellent sources of good parts when you need them ask and if we have the info we will share it.
As others have said if after some time you decide not to finish the project there are many people on this forum that will try to outbid others for your car...... Including me.
But in the mean time welcome and I hope that you enjoy your new project
