Well they still produced the FD until when in Japan?? I think 2001 or something?? Theoretically doesn't Mazda have to produce 13Bs and other FD parts for a good few years for those models?? And if that is true would those "JDM" engines and some of those parts be compatable with our FDs, and would we be able to get our hands on them??

This is good news, this way, if you guys keep blowing engines and buying RX-8 then Mazda will have to be forced to build another 7 just cuz the demmand is so high LOL.

Blasphemy!!

superturbo charged Renisis for everyone

supercharged down low sequential system with bigger turbine up top, best of both worlds quick intake charge and max efficiency up top.

Aftermarket companys will be making the parts for years. What they dont make you can find in junk yards and people who have spare parts. In japan there is enough parts to last us few over here in the US a long long time. Not to mention that the RX-7 might come back with a modified renises engine. If that happens well all just go get one of those.

There's only been one person in the world that's been able to pull that off AFAIK and it wasn't on a quirky 13b, I think it was on a VW engine. He only got it to work for 1 day.
