I've been to many Rx7 links. Most tell of reliability and rotary issues. All very informative.



But as far as the Efini name, where does this show up? Only in Japan? Did it replace the name "Mazda" for x amount of years? I'd love to know...



And 13b-re is the USDM while 13b-rew is JDM? I might be confused on that one...

treceb is the closest, Dumbrotorkid is way off.



Efini was the name Mazda's sports division was sold under. Originally named Infini (which means infinite), it was shortened to Efini. Eventually it was dissolved and RX-7's were once again sold under the Mazda name.



Other brands include Autozam & Euno's.

When RX7's were being sold, were the Efini, Autozam, and Euno versions availble for the USDM?
