Yikes,lol...i'll die if i ever see a type R rx7 other then the SpiritR...



Anyways...i believe that in japan...a savanah rx7 was from '86 to '88, then they had the Infini in '90 & the InfiniIV in '91..then it went onto the FDs being the Efini, etc...I'm kinda vague on this because japanese models are confusing to follow. The '86 to '88s were also known as the GTR and the the '89 to '91 models were known as the GTX(thus the "X" in my "SE" model..bwaa..."SE-X"). I hope this helps a lil..

Is it still under a mazda name plate? Or is it sold at 'Savanah' dealers?





That always confused me, cuase i would see (J spec) cars and on the back and sides there was no Mazda... Just a savanah sticker or emblem...



speaking of emblem, ever seen the JDM FD badge?? Oh... Very good... very good
