Fast Facts:

  • The RX-7 featured strong (forged aluminum) control arms in an unequal length geometry, a setup found in many race cars. It also has a near 50/50 weight distribution, weighs only ~2800lbs, and was one of the first production cars to feature a Torsen torque sensing differential
  • It also has a very rigidly mounted drivetrain, as the whole drivetrain mounts to the chassis as one piece (spreading the load over a large distance). In addition, the engine and trans are linked to the differential via a lengthy torque arm
  • The sequential turbo setup was developed with the aid of Hitachi. The first turbo supplied 10 lbs of boost @ 1,800 rpm up until 4k rpm, where it begins to turn off as the second turbo kicks in @ 4500 rpm. This 2nd turbo, activated at WOT, maintains the same 10 lbs of boost until the 8,000 rpm redline. The power delivery isn’t quite linear (there’s a small drop in boost to 8lbs during the crossover) but this makes for a notable pause before you are shoved back into the seat at 4500 rpm onward
  • This system, while advanced, was highly complex. It consisted of 4 different control solenoids, 4 actuators, a vacuum chamber, a pressure chamber, and 67(!) different vacuum hoses that span a total of several feet. These hoses, known by enthusiasts as the “rat’s nest”, are prone to cracking and failure from the high temps generated by the rotary engine
  • In the U.S, Mazda offered the FD generation RX-7 in 3 trims: the base, the touring, and the R model line. The touring had a sunroof, fog lights, leather seats, rear window wiper and a Bose Acoustic Wave system standard. The R1 trim (named R2 in 1994–95) featured upgraded springs, Bilstein shocks, an extra engine oil cooler, a chin spoiler, rear wing, and suede seats. The only difference between the R1 and the later R2 was the R2 had a slightly softer suspension
Key Model Year Changes:

  • First year of the RX-7 (FD) in the US.
  • The following year (1994) saw the R2 replace the R1 model
  • 1994 saw a passenger airbag and the introduction of the PEG (Performance Equipment Group) model, which had leather seats and a sunroof
  • In 1995, the touring package was replaced by the PEP (popular equipment package). The PEP package contained a rear wing, leather seats, sunroof and fog lights
  • The RX7 was only sold in the U.S between 1993 and 1995
