Mazda RX7 S4s & S5s Discussion

[Toyzda]

That is a gen 1 (series 1, 2 & 3) rx-7.

Hot shot though!

This looks like another RX-7 but whose is it.

That's the Wayne Mahnken car, not sure what happened to that....

Hi all

Yes it was one of the first turbo rotaries to race in sports sedans.

Not sure where it is now either!

Nice pic.

Wayne dropped into my workshop about 2 weeks ago on his way to the Morgan Park historic meeting as a spectator.
I can find out what happened to his Mazda when I get a chance soon.

Did Ivans car originally had a 13b fitted, before the 20b,

Yes

was it much of a modification to fit it I wonder?

I think another chassis was used to suit the 20B engine and the old 13B one was later used as the basis of Berry Polovic's car, well that's what I was told maybe someone can confirm if this is correct.

I am back on S4 Rx7's....

What is the history of this car?

I am assuming it is the Peter Hills of super touring fame and from the advert it is based in NSW.
Has anyone ever seen this car race or Peter race it??

Peter Hills Mazda is the second RX7 Richard Catchlove ran in here in Victoria , was sponsored by The Rotary Shop.
Its a Dick Ward chassis, dont know its history prior to that, can any one help?
