El Gabito

I am looking to buy this, I had another thread but here is a new one with a list of all the parts, and I will try to get pics as well. Let me know what you guys think, I don’t know a ton about these cars.



1988 Mazda TII RX-7 10th Anniversary Edition



Body: Very good condition. No rust. A couple minor dimples from parking lot doors. Paint peeling on passenger side headlight cover and just next to that on hood. This is covered up when the bra is on. It is a problem common to the paint on 10th Anniversary cars.



Interior: Excellent - Mint conditon. Completely stock looking accept for the turbo timer and boost gauge. All floormats in perfect condition as mentioned below. No aftermarket stereo has ever been installed. Only the speakers have been replaced. It even has the tie-down straps in the back cargo area which is unheard of, at least by anyone that I know.



Suspension: (hardware is 8-10k miles old)

Suspension Techniques springs

Tokico "Blues" shocks/struts

Suspension Techniques Front Sway Bar (I believe the rear may be stock... which is fine.)

Toyo Proxes FZ4 tires on original 10th Anniversary wheels

Hoosier & Goodyear Autocross tires on second set of grey TII wheels



Motor: 0 miles: (roughly 300+ HP range)

Street Ported (generously) 13B '88 TII motor

Side Housings lapped

2mm 2-piece apex seals

3-window oil bearings

heatsinks cut into coolant passages

cryogenically hardened stationary gears

custom made 2.5" turbo-back exhaust to single 3" outlet (sounds very nice!)

HKS Super Power Flow intake

136,620 miles on car

Asking $8000. May throw in the not-installed items for that price too.

Turbo II

i would hope there are no miles on that engine, cause if there was it seems the car prolly wouldve been abused with all those mods. by abuse, i mean by lots of track and drag driving. from the sounds of things a lot of time and money was invested in the car. not a bad price for the upgrades. if you are considering it, make sure u find out who rebuilt the motor, who installed what and have paperwork that justifies it.



let us know if u pick it up or not

Rob x-7

thats too much my money in my opinion, especially considering

the paint has to be stripped to repaint it.



What hasnt started to peel- will. No respectable shop would paint

that car without stripping it down to the primer, bare metal not needed on those cars because the failure seems to be between the paint and the primer, the primer is stable and souldnt be taken off.
