Red Gsl-se. Rebuilt Engine, Straight Body on 2040-cars
Stockbridge, Georgia, United States
If you are a Rotor head, you know this is the "holy grail" first Gen RX7. That's why I got it, and why I put a fresh engine in it. If you are not a "Rotor Head" I can tell you they made these cars for two years only and they had the larger, more powerful 13B fuel injected engines and larger brakes and wheels. They are really a great car and they are sought after by RX7 enthusiasts and collectors who see them as a car that going up in value. Since I got it, I have taken on other, more valuable projects and the RX7 needs a new Rotor daddy. The GOOD: Straight body, fresh rebuild (about 4,000 miles)good clutch, gearbox, rear end, Air conditioning and power steering, great tires, new idler arm etc. The BAD: The seats have tears, the rear carpet is shot, the rear interior trim panel; is MIA and the left taillight is coming apart.. There is minor oil leak at the cooler, there is a Power steering leak. The car has the RX7 "on center" wander in the steering, but it has the new updated Idler arm so it may be a steering box adjustment. I'd call it "normal". It is intermittently hard to start cold..your guess is as good as mine:). I always under describe and over deliver in my auctions, so understand this is not a $1500 beater car. It has more money than the "Buy it now" invested in the engine and new parts, it just needs more attention than I have time for to make it a very valuable car. I am done with it, come get it! NOTE: If you want one of these that needs less attention, there is very nice red GSL SE on eBay with now, with the nicer gray interior, it is at $5,000 with more than 50 bids as I type this...... |

2014 Mazda6 earns Popular Mechanics' 'Car of the Year'
Tue, 12 Nov 2013Ring one up for Mazda. The Japanese brand's midsize offering, the Mazda6, has been named Popular Mechanics' Car of the Year. The 6 received a comprehensive reworking for the 2014 model year that saw it adopt sleek, sexy sheet metal; a clean, logical interior; and powertrain technologies that allow it to net some of the best fuel economy available in a gas-powered, non-hybrid sedan.
Popular Mechanics praised the 6's Skyactiv 2.5-liter, 184-horsepower engine, as well as its agility and responsiveness during testing. It also remarked on the functional, but well designed cabin, and the degree of available technology.
"The Mazda6 really impressed us with how well it delivers so many things modern car owners want: great mileage, fun road-handling, upscale features and looks - and remarkable value," said Jim Meigs, Editor-in-Chief of Popular Mechanics.
2015 Mazda2 spotted in Japanese magazine
Tue, 16 Jul 2013The styling changes at Mazda are proceeding at a fairly quick tempo. The CX-5 was unveiled, followed by a refreshed CX-9, the excellent Mazda6, and most recently a new Mazda3. This all happened over the course of less than two years, which in the auto industry is like a long week.
Now the Mazda2 is getting its revamp. Thanks to a magazine scan from Japan, we now have our first look at the new sub-compact, called the Demio, in its home market. Mazda's familial front end has been fitted, and it doesn't look quite as suited to the smaller car. Lacking the long-hood look of the Mazda3 and Mazda6, the new styling looks overly rounded, almost bulbous from our angle. It's still attractive, but the shape is kind of off-putting compared to the chiseled faces of the 2's big brothers. We'll concede that the folded magazine page may have something to do with it, however.
The next-generation 2 should adhere to Mazda's Skyactiv philosophy, which means we can expect a highly efficient four-cylinder engine, although it's impossible to say if Mazda will do away with its smallest offering's one-engine strategy. Considering the Mazda2 will be riding on a shortened version of the CX-5's platform, we'd expect some degree of mechanical parts sharing, regardless of how much the larger platform needs trimmed. Perhaps a detuned version of the 2.0-liter, Skyactiv four-cylinder could be under the 2's hood?
Toyota, Honda, Nissan and more collaborating to increase fuel efficiency
Sun, 25 May 2014Toyota, Honda, Mazda, Nissan, Subaru, Mitsubishi, Suzuki and Daihatsu have announced an alliance that will see a push to improve fuel economy from both gas-powered and diesel-powered engines by as much as 30 percent before the end of the decade.
The newly assembled Research Association of Automotive Internal Combustion Engines put the roughly $20-million project together, with the Japanese government committing to half the cost while the eight manufacturers will chip in the rest.
According to Automotive News, the automakers will team up and share basic research on internal-combustion engines in a bid to cut costs. Eventually, the results of the research will find its way into a production vehicle, although it's unclear just when we'll see the fruits of this partnership on the road.
