This Mazda RX-7 FD is a highly modified example of the famed rotary-engined performance car, which has been built for competition use and has a number of hillclimb wins under its belt. Under the bonnet is a recently rebuilt 1.3-litre ‘13B-REW’ rotary engine, which is fed by a Greddy turbocharger and drives the rear wheels via a five-speed manual transmission. The seller notes that the engine is currently producing around 320kW, but once it is suitably run-in it should be able to put out around 380kW. The seller reports that the odometer currently displays around 63,000 Kms, however this is not warranted. The car has been with its current owner since September 2014, and it has reportedly only seen two hours of track time since its most recent rebuild. It is fitted with a CAMS approved roll cage and is a CAMS logbook car. Originally finished in Silver Stone, this RX-7 has been repainted in an appealing blue metallic hue, over a stripped-out interior, which still features the original black fabric-trimmed passenger seat.

External modifications include a full body kit including a vented bonnet, a substantial rear wing mounted to the car’s bumper supports, tinted tail lights and blacked-out reflectors, and a single windscreen wiper. Inside, the rear seats, carpet, and door cards have been removed, and the original driver’s seat has been replaced with a Velo bucket seat, complete with a matching Velo six-point harness. Flat aluminium panels have been fitted in place of the original door cards, a non-standard steering wheel has been fitted, and a digital display replaces the analogue gauges. The engine has been bridge-ported and balanced, and the car has also been fitted with a Greddy TD07 turbocharger and exhaust manifold, two 044 fuel pumps, a 420 LPH high-flow lift pump and surge tank, upgraded fuel lines with speed flow fittings and filters, a roll-over vent for the fuel tank’s ceramic coated pressure release pipe, a 3.5-inch wrapped exhaust with two Magnaflow mufflers, a custom twin-pass radiator core, a custom header tank, two 12-inch thermo fans, a Microtech LT ECU dash logger with GPS, a racing gearbox upgrade with an Albions gear set, an OS one-way limited-slip centre differential, MCA Red Series corner-balanced suspension, and Project Mu two-piece brake discs with club race pads. The car will be supplied with a selection of invoices for the work carried out, a RaceKing hydraulic tilt trailer, and a spare set of Enkei RPF1 alloy wheels fitted with soft-compound tyres. The resprayed blue metallic paintwork is described by the seller as being in fair condition, with two scratches on the nearside rear panel behind the fuel filler cap, stone chip damage on the rear wheel guards, a chip below the driver’s door handle, scratches inside the driver’s door aperture, a chip on the front of the passenger door and a paint bubble on the front spoiler. There is also light stone chipping on the car’s front end, bubbles on the front bumper, and some scuffs on the front splitter. Inside, the stripped-out cabin presents in fair condition.

The seller notes that the lights, indicators, electric windows and mirrors are all intact and work correctly, but that all of the other electrics have been removed to prepare the car for track use.
