1987 Mazda R-7 Turbo II for Sale - $3800 O.B.O

For all of those rotary enthusiasts here is a Turbo II up for sale that may be just what you are looking for. I’m selling this car because I no longer drive it (since I got my Z-06) and I won’t have room for it when I move at the end of the summer. So it’s got to go! I had been setting this car up for sporty driving and autocross but never got around to driving it much. See below for the details.

-1987 Turbo II with 148k miles on body with ~30k on a rebuilt Mazda Reman engine-Engine rebuilt in ~2004 with street port 3 piece seals and FD side and corner seals (built and ported by Performance Specialists Inc) - dyno’d at 313 rwhp after rebuild with current setup--Engine emission components removed and block off plates installed--Solid aluminum engine mounts--Haltech E6K standalone engine management - fully tunable via laptop-Turbo - older style HKS T04E ~57 trim internal wastegate--HKS boost controller--Intercooler - older style HKS front mount (has a broken mounting bracket in need of repair)--Blow off valve - HKS--Bonez intake air filter-Fuel system - Walbro 255 in-tank fuel pump 1600cc secondary fuel injectors AEM rising rate FPR and SS braided lines-Corksport 3 inch stainless downpipe and full exhaust w/additional magnaflow muffler and magnaflow spun high flow cat (don’t know if it would pass emissions) w silencer-6 puck unsprung ACT clutch and heavy duty pressure plate (good grab but difficult to drive)-Suspension - Megan racing coilovers fully adjustable - autocross alignment (see pics for alignment)--Stock suspension bushings removed and replaced with polyurethane Energy Suspension bushings (this was painstaking be glad you don’t have to do this yourself!)--Rear steer eliminator bushings-Electric radiator fan-Tires - kumho ecsta supra tires decent tread left on them (225s)-Practically new (very low mile) brake rotors and Hawk HPS pads-Hood lifters - helps vent engine heat and gives a unique style (take it off if you don’t like!)-Power steering eliminated/removed-A/C removed-BUR9EQs spark plugs all around w/ aftermarket cables-Simpson 3 point harness on drivers side (good for autox use)-Aftermarket adjustable dash mounted shift light-Aftermarket Pioneer stereo with MP3 playback-Fresh oil in engine trans and diff (with LSD friction additive)

Issues/negatives-Small water leak somewhere - I can’t trace it down. I’m not sure if it’s in or out of the engine your guess is as good as mine. I have to frequently check the water levels and add when needed.-Engine tune needs to be improved for cold start and cold driving - starts and runs rough until warm-Wear and tear for a pretty old vehicle (see photos); some hail damage to exterior faded paint dented passenger quarter panel some surface scratching windows and sunroof move slowly (could be lubed) small oil leak from oil pan ( a few drips on pavement) etc...in general this car isn’t necessarily a looker or in perfect shape but it’s a performer.-Needs new stereo surround plastic paneling existing panel was broken and discarded.-Oil metering pump removed - must mix 1 ounce 2 stroke oil per gallon of gas at fuel up-A/C removed-Power steering is removed (converted power rack) so there is a lot of feedback and it can be difficult to drive. This could be fixed relatively easily by converting to a manual rack if you prefer to change it.-Rear radio speakers removed to allow space for suspension adjusters

I’m sad to get rid of this car but I don’t want to put it into extended storage. So make an offer and maybe it can be yours! Thanks
