The Mazda RX-7 Performance Handbook reveals the tips and techniques used by performance shops and enthusiasts to modify all three generations (1979-95) of the rotary-powered RX-7. This step-by-step guide explains how to transform each model into your perfect sports car, while remaining within your budget.

All areas of performance modifications are covered, including: chassis and suspension, brakes, wheels and tires, intake and exhaust systems, engines and transplants, fuel injection and carburetion, transmissions, and much more! Almost every page contains one or more photographs clearly illustrating the product or part that is being referenced in the text

Each section is presented in a factual and comparative format based upon the real-life experiences of the author, Mike Ancas. The author outlines critical steps to take during an upgrade, and areas to avoid in order to prevent costly mistakes. Also included is a comprehensive list of rotary tuner shops and an extensive resource guide for many of the parts that are referenced in the handbook. This book, in combination with the Racing Beat Technical Manual and Product Catalog, gives the RX-7 owner a formidable advantage over your competition with this wealth of knowledge!

As a bonus, each book contains an internet reference sheet to locate the three (3) "missing" chapters that were "cut" from the book by the publisher. These chapters are ONLY available from selected sources, and cannot found in the books purchased from retail outlets. These chapters contain valuable information regarding: Carburetion vs. Fuel Injection, Troubleshooting the Third Generation RX-7 (1993-95), and the "Original" introduction.

As rotary enthusiasts know, there just aren't many good books on the market any longer regarding rotary performance. Take a look at this "new" offering, we don’t think you will be disappointed!
