I'm new to these forums and I'm looking for a cheap fast ride(aren't we all). I always liked rx7's and I was wondering if someone can give me the low down on all the classifications. Like what years does an FC and FD cover and all of the engine options and HP ratings. I did a search and came up with squat.

actually a forum member has an FD with a production date of 1996. so 95 is not a leftover year

No, when they came into port from Japan, the port had a strike or something. So the cars remained on the boat for a very long time, so that might be related to what you heard.

Don't forget about the FE which is reserved for the rx-8, or so i heard. Then there was the SA before the FB which was like 79-8? Am I wrong in saying this?
