Vehicle Details
Year : 1988
Make and Model : Mazda RX7
Exterior Color : White
Interior Color : Black
Auto or Manual? : 5 Speed
Odometer Reading : ~220,000KMs
Location of Vehicle : Calgary, AB
Description :
Being a student I have discovered that this car is a want and not a need, so for practicality reasons it needs to be sold (or traded). It is a 1988, white, 10th anniversary model of the Mazda RX7. The motor was recently rebuilt by Adam at RX7 specialties and currently has ~45,000kms. There are many modifications on this vehicle and are all tasteful, I do not currently have all the receipts as I have not retrieved them from the previous owner (he is a friend of mine). The car is daily driven and not bagged on, and never brought over it�s redline of 7500 rpm. The interior is pretty much perfect and very clean (other than a crack in a dash piece around the center console, in which I have a replacement). Adam quoted that this car with a $2000 investment into a Haltech ECU (quoted price includes installation and tuning) would be able to attain ~400whp, simply put would make this car very fast.
The mod list will be put up later once I have retrieved the receipts but as of now I can currently say that the car has:
� Wedsport RS-5 carbon fiber wheels w/red lip
� Aggressive tread tires with ~80% life left
� Magic JIC coilovers
� Various strut/swaybars
� Camber kit
� Greddy Type S BOV
� HKS downpipe
� RacingBeat headers
� Magnaflow dual exhaust
� Custom T4 turbo(good quality not Ebay, purchased for ~$1000)
� Rebuilt Motor w/~45,000
� Custom built intercooler piping w/large intercooler
� Upgraded injectors
� Ebay mazdaspeed racing seats (only one side is bolted down because of brackets not lining up)
� Momo course steering wheel
� Ebay Turbo Timer(not working due to E-brake sensor)
� Slotted and drilled rotors with upgrade brake pads
� Greddy intake
� APEX-I SAFC
� Installed fuel cut switch
� AEM Wideband
� Mazdaspeed short shifter (feels amazing!)
� Flashing cigarette lighter (I don�t smoke)
� Viper 2 way alarm
� Aftermarket Lightweight flywheel
� Upgraded Unknown(to me) clutch(probably Exedy)
The Bad: The car could use a paintjob; the paint is stripping off on the sides of the car by the doors primarily. The rust for a car from 88 is actually pretty good it only has very faint surface rust in about 3 places. The car has the 3500 rpm hesitation common among RX7s, nothing a trip to Dr. Adam at RX7 specialties couldn�t fix (wiring and grounding electronics such as MAF). I usually drive around that point and have gotten used to it so it does not bother me. The RX7 is in need of a tune, it is not as powerful as it should be and a tune should net LARGE gains on this car. I have not tuned it as I am saving my money for school and do not intend to put money into this car. It runs fine but I know would be much more powerful and economical with a tune.

Overall this is a very fun car and gets lots of attention.
