Im not completely sure but it has to do with the VIN. In the VIN JM1FB(FC,FD) Is Japan Motor, 1 is for passenger car I believe and the FB, FC, FD is RX7 model.

So from 1981 and up, when FB is mentioned it refers to a 1st gen. and so forth. 79 and 80 were SA, dont know why. But ive heard that all 1st gens had an SA number in japan.

Hope I helped you out instead of confusing you.

And im not entirely sure if im correct. Im sure someone will agree or correct me soon.
