Probably a leak in the 4th dimension somewhere. Rotaries are so crazy that they cause leaks to happen before they even happen, and fluids start seeping through the fabric of spacetime. I have the same issue with my clutch. Shouldn't I be at work right now? ****.

its not a rethreading issue on race harness's, its a material issue, they arent made out of the same stuff that factory belts are and start to show sign's of deterioration after 2 years.

better yet, just make harnesses out of duct tape to begin with. You might need some help getting taped in the seat and cut out everytime, but you won't move an inch!

no its 87, if it was an 86 the rear mazda logo would be a sticker and the rx7 logo would be one as well, in 87 they went to a sticker rx7 logo and black plastic mazda logo, in 88 they changed to both emblems being plastic, and the steering wheel changed to a solid 3 spoke. Also, most 86's had red numbers on the odometer, also the bins or no bins was always an option for any fc, you had bins/no bins/rear seats.

I seem to remember Brillo's 86 having the plastic Mazda emblem. I thought the 87's had the sticker. I know the 88's had the plastic badges and they also carried the SE sticker. Cody! Shut us up already and give us more info.

86 they were stickers both sides, 87 they gave "MAZDA" the plastic emblem, 88 both became emblems. can rule out 88 due to the steering wheel which is found on 86-87 models. Though im more concerned with the prospect of "Does it run, where did you find it, what did ya pay for it, and give us more details!", since he didnt post engine bay shots it must be a mess beneath that hood lol.
