actually Ide like to say thanks alot Ive had this page bookmarked for a while.... but I was wondering if you could help me out.... just today my power steering just quit and a solid warning buzzer went off... my idiot lights dont work(i dont think) and I pulled the PS fuse and the buzzer stopped, put it back in buzzer goes off(running or not as long as key is on) fluid level is fine and all PS unit wires seem to be fine, I have not checked resistence between control unit and PS unit yet... ?? any Ideas?

 

It is a T2 RX7. Looks to ba an '87 or '88.

 

Can some one tell me how many 2x2 s4's were made thanks.

 

WoW! Thanks so much for that FAQ post! Super resource for me now. Really, Thank You!

 

I have a 88 vert. when that I am having trouble from...It will start up but if I do not press the gas then it will cut off. I was driving it and it cut off on me. what could be the trouble?

 

Im considering buying a 1986 N/A RX-7. The guy says it needs a power steering unit and a differential mount. I'm not sure what he means about the power steering unit. Is it the pump or the whole configuration? And i've looked around online for the differential mount and have only seen pictures but not prices. Any ideas?

 

The Diff Mount can be purchased from Mazdatrix.com

You need to find out if the car needs a PS pump, or a rack & pinion.

I'm at a loss for tracking down the cause of this now. It only happens during the day, after the car is warmed up. The car will all-of-a-sudden refuse to go over 1500 rpm, almost like it's gone into a safety mode. Oil temp, coolant temp, and engine temp are all well within norm's during this occurrence. Then, if I keep driving (at 35 mph in 5th gear) for about 5 minutes or so, the problem goes away, but pops back up if I tack the revs up over 4 or 5k rpm.

Is this an Electrical problem? If so, is it one that requires the replacing of the entire ECU?

Replaced fuel filter, spark plugs/wires, air filter, thermostat (checked coolant system, water pump is still working well), so I'm not thinking it's a problem of being restricted by anything other than the computer (feels like the spark or fuel is being cut at 1500 rpm when this occurs).

I'm baffled (but my engine isn't, cause she likes to breath!)

 

hi. im looking into buying a 1991 fc gxl and doing a 20b swap. how much would a 20b cost and where would i look for one? what sort of work is required when it comes to engine mounts and such? overall, how much of a dent in my wallet should i be prepared for?

 

a 20b swap will ballpark in the area of $10-15k. the mounts and hard-to-find accessories can be found here http://banzai-racing.com/store/13B-RE_20B_products.html

https://www.mazdaforum.com/forum/mazda-rx-7-33/got-looking-my-first-rotary-what-expect-15989/ read posts 3-6 in this thread and it will shed light on the swap. you can find a motor at http://www.jdmtigerjapanese.com/details.php?id=3281 but it will most likely need a rebuild. http://www.atkinsrotary.com/index.php?pag=0 will rebuild it for you. you will still need to custom fit a radiator, figure out an intercooler, sort out engine management, and you will definitely want to do a single turbo swap. those are just the basics. good luck if you decide to do it.
