The following information was pulled from my thread in the West section:
So then I might sell my beloved car....... Reason is not because it's blown, or missing the doors, or has a ton of stickers......... It's because I just feel like moving on to something bigger and better......... and well, more comfy.......
Statssssssssssssssssss:
1993 VR base FD
Interior: Black leather
Chassis: 110k miles
Motor: ~64k miles
I'm the 2nd owner, 1st owner meticulously took good care of the car. Originally bought in Fremont Mazda in late 93. Got full warranty and motor along with other parts got replaced at 46k miles. OEM clutch replaced around 50k miles. Have entire history of records and maintanence since the car was born.
Once I took over, the maintanence just got more specific and severe. Oil changes with Royal Purple every 1000-2000 miles. OEM oil filter used every time. OEM Spark plugs and wires are also done by me. Tranny fluid uses Redline, rear diff oil uses Royal Purple.
Interior is about 7.8/10. The passenger side was hardly used so there is very minor wear and tear.
Exterior is detailed every single weekend with fresh wax. There is no rear spoiler.
MODS: These are the mods that will come with the car upon purchasing:
- HKS downpipe (purchased new)
- HKS turbo timer (silver unit with blue lights)
- Custom interior shift boot and ebrake boot. Black boots are leather with red stitching.
- 99 JDM front lip
- HKS Carbon fiber titanium catback
- Autometer boost gauge (black face with orange lighting)
- Autometer dual gauge pod (black)
- K&N filter ( this mod alone nearly balanced out my a/f ratio on the dyno, GREAT mod)
Rims: Stock FD rims........ If you want the black RP-01s then I will only add on a few extra $$$. Suspension is stock.
For that that have seen my car, it is in above condition. The car has never been tracked, autox, nor dragged. I hardly boost as there is no need to boost when not necessary. 2nd turbo kicks in hard with the above mods and hits consistent pattern. The car has been dynoed twice to see what gains I have with each mod I put on. During my second dyno, I hit a max of 7psi, but I immediately found the problem and fixed it. It was just a boost pill that I forgot to put in the vaccum hose when i replaced it.
The car is HEAVILY cooled down after each drive as I know how hot it can get and I just fans and distilled water every time.
Misc mods: Custom painted calipers in black.
Updated front and rear emblems also in black with the flying mazda wings.
Also updated 99 spec rear tail lights using CF inserts........
I just got the clutch line replaced by PR Motorsports in Hayward. They are a rotary specialist.
I am also in the process of replacing my water pump with a new unit, with new lines and belt.
For a nice sense of ease and comfort, during my 1.5+ years of owning this car, the clutch line was the very first problem that I had. Other than that I've treated the car alll too well and sometimes tedious trying to look after it when I take it out anywhere.
Asking price is $14k with the mods, minus the black RP-01 rims..........

Royal Purple has been better in my car than all of the other oils that I've tested out, Redline, Mobil 1, and just regular oil. It's not a problem and has made quite a nice improvement over the other oils I've tested. If you're worried about synthetic in the motor, you shouldn't as they are preferred among top rotary specialists and tuners.
