Thumbs up

Hi all, I just wondered if any of you would be able to help me to find out what type FD I have. The whole time I have had the car I have been thinking that it is an RBS, but I have never known for sure.



So if any of you read japanese and are able to tell me what I have for sure, then that would be very much appreciated.



Clint.

On the second line of hand written characters where it says RX-7 theres also an R on the same line but I don't know what the characters before and after the R mean.

Hey thank you JT for the translation you don't know how happy it makes me knowing Ive got a Type R Bathurst.



WOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOO



Especially after thinking all this time that I had a standard RBS, this would explain the adjustable Showa suspension I asked you about a couple of months back.



Yayyyyyyyyyyyyy
