Pics?

 

ill get picks its dark out..

 

there were no 98 RX7s in the states unless it is imported or you are from outta country. they stopped shipping here after 94s

 

I thought the rev limiter was at 7500 RPMs maybe he is reving it up there to get to 100 in 3rd gear? and one of your gauges my be off. I think they have a tolerence level of +/- 5 MPH

 

i thought it was 93-95 on the fd ill have to get on rx7 club and find out. and the car came out of cali fron a guy who had it imported my dad then bought it and now i have it for grad perz.

 

is that video a 420a?

it actually looks like it gets up to 60 prety quickly, but then it falls flat on its face in 3rd

 

my rs gets to 60 prety quick....and falls on its face in 3rd.

 

I hate to be a nay sayer but I cant belive it till I see it. and I got those years from RX7 club I my buddy has a 93 FD3 R1 over there NESPEED is the S\N.....Its a 1993 R1 RX7
off the top of my head it is street ported, clipped turbos(stock twins), 4Row FMIC, HKS twin intakes, CraneHi-6 ingnition, Pettit racing downpipe and midpipe, 3mm apex seals, TT supra fuel pump , free mods, non sequencial mod, Apexi power FC, Apexi ACV-r(12 PSI), It has the MKIV supra Royal Saphire Pearl paint, and anyone who knows supras that paint only came origanal on 84 supras to the US shores it is pretty rare on a supra and lots of guys use it as a cutom paint .... and tons more I cant think of. I love his car though and I took these pics a in september when I went up to Ma. thought id share

Here's a dumb question for ya..but it was just something that came across my mind...Is your buddy running custom wheels and low profile tires and are you running stock wheels and tires? A lower profile tire will throw the speedometer off a little bit...I was running my stock wheels and tires on my '99 GS-T for a little while after I bought it and then I switched to my custom wheels and low profile tires (205/40/16 at the time) and I noticed that they made my speedometer read about 7 miles per hour faster than what I was actually doing.

 

i don't see where the confusion is. you said that the only way it could be a '97 is if it was imported. he said that it was imported by the guy that his dad bought the car from. so what is there to believe?
