RX7 guys please click here

Pretend I know nothing about Mazda engines. I was looking at this Thing and it says it has a Mazda engine but I might as well be blind looking at the pictures. It could be a KIA engine for all I know.

What do you Mazda guys think? Run away from it or it is kind of OK? What kind of power might it have just looking at this crappy picture?

No it is a Thing.

It looks like Barrett Jackson sold it at one point…

No help with the RX7 part, but to stop the future “what’s a Thing” posts…

It says 4 cylinder. I thought they didn’t have cylinders. (?)

:lol: super reliable

takes mods great :tup:

unbreakable :tup:

Looks like a T2 engine…Turbo FC RX7.

Unreliable.

Doesn’t like mods.

Breakable.

1.3 Rotary.

New motor for the Audi. Nice.

Thanks cause googling “thing” was going nowhere fast

:frowning: I really liked this Thing.

Yep, I needed pre OBDII. :slight_smile:

Yeah, looks to be a 13B rotary out of a 2nd gen RX-7 (87-91 model years).

Subaru motor swap seems more fitting…

Jeller had a Turbo II back when we were not so old. Should make 180 HP stock, this looks modded. Who knows what your getting into with that. Could be built/tuned correctly or could be ready to pop. Looks like a clean build so you would think it was built correct. Since you don’t have any documentation the price should reflect that.

So he lost some horsepower when he bought the P car huh?

Is this the yellow one in East Aurora?

I had a 2nd gen. RX7…really enjoyed that car…

^^No Ohio… Toy Barn. It seems like it has been a few places in not too much time. No one can sell it I guess. lol

run away. fast.
