It's a part of the vin code. The 86 rx-7 you have is a second gen called the fc because the first five of the vin is jm1fc. First gen is jm1fb and third gen is jm1fd. Occasionally you'll hear sa22 which is the 79-80 rx-7. Fb was from 81-85, fc from 86-92 oem 86-91 jdm, and fd was 93-95 oem, 92-02 jdm.



Fun fact- rx8 vin starts with jm1fe
