RX-3 years, models and options
Hello everyone. My father and I are possibly looking into purchasing a RX-3, most likely a roller. We have a few questions regarding certain options and the years/models they were available in. First off is the tail lights, we really like the square ones and aren't sure what year they were available. Second, the front+ rear bumpers, what model had the black plastic ones? Lastly the rear window louvres, model, year?

your basically looking for a SP, it's possible to get one for less then 5 grand but it would be a big project, your best bet in my opinion is that you would find one in the west coast of the US. Or you could buy a 74-78 rx3 and just find the bits and pieces to build a SP.
good luck

there are 3 types of 3. not all markets got all 3 serieses. this list is for the US models
the 71-73, S1. twin dizzy, thermal reactor, chrome bumpers
74-76 S2. engine got redone, iron apex seals, single distributor. the nose cone got redone, and we gained the big steel bumpers, still chrome, just BIG
77-78 S3. looks the same to me, but its not. the SP was an option, different suspension/mechanicals/5 speed.

I have an R100 and an SP, both for sale, both have current plates and titles!
Rx3-Sp is driven everyday and the R100 is now complete and almost a daily driver!
each in the 8500 range...
Tons of extra parts...
I will post an ad, and list on ebay soon....
