Thanks for the over view... I was in Okinawa from 92 - 97. I had an FC that was tuned by Amemiya. Nothing as extravagant as this though (325hp). It had 3mm seals, aftermarket intercooler. HKS's AIC, suspension, single plate metallic clutch, exhaust, racing bucket, gauges etc. That car was so fun to drive. It held it's own. I remember getting laughed at a couple times when the Okinawan dudes pulled up next me to race and realized it was an American driving. The joke was on them since they spent most of the time in my rear view mirror. :-) I really miss that car... Cheers, Greg
I would have loved to live there during that time!! Seeing all those amazing 90s cars, brand new and out cruising!!!! Only benefit for me was they are a bit cheaper in 2017...... Well..... some of them hahahaha
When you say it's a "1.3 liter" you have to remember that these cars have the advantage of using their full displacement every revolution. Piston engines can only use half their displacement because they are four strokes. Effectively a 13b is a 2.6L if you were to do a fair comparison.
Raven Solang I appreciate that!! Sadly in my current situation it’s hard to pump out allot of content so that’s been my biggest setback. Enjoy the rest of the content and check out the Tokyo Auto Salon 2018 Video!
Okay thank you for the info. I'm Building my own rx7 but its not gonna have as much power and I really liked how this looked but I'm hesitant to start cutting into the body.
Hey man I wanted to ask you a quick question about the quantum coilovers on the car. I'm building a track car but its more street oriented. I can get either the RE Quantums, the DG 5 or they have just a regular street damper kit. I was wondering if you could give any advice on that. I have heard the RE Quantums are very stiff.
ISubZeroKelvinII i have the DG-5 coilover sprung at 16k/18k. The dampening adjustments are very responsive and can be used on the street. I really enjoy them. I run my dampening a little under half on the street and dial it up for track events.
I was on Kadena when he pulled in with the car after just dialling in his turbo and he jumped alot of his coolant on the pavement due to a clamp slippin. Hopefully it got torqued to max ft.lbs.
Y-plate. Could import to US on a one year exemption and since its a FD3S RX-7 that was already imported to the US in the 1990s. Depending on the state, could register in the US and never get noticed.
mintkendishin if you look at all my videos you would notice that only 2 of twenty something videos are car reviews, my main focus is cinematic features. check out my playlist to see the cinematic videos. also I'm probably the only one of those 8 who lives in Japan hahaha
He built a good majority of the car yes, I believe he only bought it with the Aero modifications. And It was a error on my part, its just called an Air Separator Tank or AST which helps to keep air out of the cooling system so no air pockets form. The RX7 comes with a plastic one stock and are prone to leaking and cracking over time. Hope this answered your question!
The camera work is really good, don't know what equipment you are using or what you are doing different but it works, editting is also good. Pacing is good, your cuts between talking points are spot on. Gg... Actually upvoted and commented.
This car is super crazy!! I have owned 3 RX cars starting back in 1991 with a convertible version 2. After that I purchased a 93 RX version 3 twin turbo. That car was the most amazing stock car ever. After that one I purchaes a 2006 RX8 and still enjoy driving it every day. I hope Mazda reverses their decision to not release the RX9.
I love how the car still seems pretty lively when you blipped the revs on the guage view. Going from twin to single certainly didn't diminish it's capabilities at low revs.
The owner of this car should use RE-Amemiya Level Man V-mount instead of Knightsports V-mount. Also, should get RE-Amemiya titanium dolphin tail, instead of that Trust/GReddy Ti catback, if he is building a full RE-A car. RE-A 3 points front strut bar, to replace that Mazdaspeed front strut bar. The signature RE-A fender mirrors, instead of stock side mirrors. The list can go on . This car is far from full RE-A build, in my opinion.
Well its definitely an amazing car and its built how the owner wanted it and that's what really matters, If you want to take my saying that its a fully built RE-Amemiya so literal than that's all good and I don't blame you, I am not an expert on every JDM car ever built let alone every version of every car ever built. The car is being completely rebuilt as we speak and is torn down into pieces so what's coming next will be great. Thank you though for your opinion
As a 1992 FD RX-7 R1 owner since June 1992, the engine really is a 2.6 liter, not 1.3 liter engine when compared to 4 stroke engines. I am tired of idiotic misrepresentations.
chuck westbrook displacement refers to physical size, not efficiency! It may be as efficient (or even more efficient) than a 2.6l, but it physically is only 1.3l. Super cool engines non the less!
FD damn coolest car ever made while R34 , 300ZX goes for modern styled FD start a Futuristic Style even that 90s car still looks cool even a BUGATTI CHIRON CANT Match it only Lambo can and that FD is a blue my favorite color is blue and its using Re Amemiya so its the best
Beautiful car but it needs more HP before it's considered fully built!!!! I wish I lived in Japan so you could check out my FD. Big difference between 400 and 931hp 😳😳😳, but the car is pretty tho...check out my channel, I will be putting up videos of my FD after I'm done my RB30 swap. And no disrespect, I would just wanna see more if your gonna drop the phrase "full built".
Big hp, big torque is not a track race thing. Its a drag racing. This car setup is for track & touge. Having 400 hp on track is great If you wanna live in japan n having a 900hp+ car. Well said its useless. Road in japan is not the same as in US. It mostly consist of narrow road with lots of corners while in US is wide, big n straight. Your big HP will be trouble when facing the corners & crash. Thats why tuning in japan is not about having big power.
He tracked the car o that explain most of the light damage but this car has been through a full transformation since this video. Now i believe it is widebody and closer to 800whp
All RX7's are RHD except the us made. AUSTRALIA all RX7's and had the last models made even after America we even have a model made for Australia the Bathurst type R and Australia has the most rotaries in the world followed by Japan then New Zealand and Australia has the fastest rotaries in the world with Porto Rico second but they only have one we have the fastest of every model made and Australia and NZ are the only countries that make the 26b's and we made the worlds only 6 rotor. Search 6 rotor Australia if you want to hear the best engine in the world!
That sounds amazing ill check it out!! I have met some Australians during my travels and I plan to visit one day soon!! The car scene there is amazing!
400hp is not much. I had 350hp in a fb rx7 (980kg) nearly 20 years ago.! Go wind some boost up and get a bbetter ecu. Plus 2000 secondary injectors and see what you get 👍
the camera setup I had didn't do the car justice. I just recently received a setup to actually mic up the cars from now on. They will be much better I promise you! thank you for the input
Jim_Gates one, noticed I'm at a red light while reading off it, and you really expect someone to memorize a list of over 35+ modifications come the day they receive a car they have only seen once before in their life? I'm not a knowledge expert on rx7s and I will never claim to be
Ben Mich i was cringing every time he said it wrong. Is it really so difficult to pull up a hot version or best motoring video on youtube to learn how to pronounce the name correctly? Otherwise it was a good video.
Well I don't remember ever saying I was a rotary professional. I forgot that I need to research the car for about a year before I just make a simple film about one! I'm so stupid! thanks man your a life saver!!!!

great vid mate. the rotary era is not over.
great vid man. editing and filming is on point dude
4:33 don't ask why, just listen

AX53 that's good info! Didn't know that thank you!
The quality of your review are absolutely insane, went to Shinjuku in July and saw few FDs, it's just unreal when I see it.
JR . Chung thank you so much!! They are amazing cars for sure!
Dang.First video I saw of yours and it was beautifully done. You just earned a sub 👌🏾 you need way more though
Raven Solang I appreciate that!! Sadly in my current situation it’s hard to pump out allot of content so that’s been my biggest setback. Enjoy the rest of the content and check out the Tokyo Auto Salon 2018 Video!
Loved the vid, you did an excellent vid on that black 1jz 5speed Soarer also. Keep up the great work mate. Very nice indeed.
Nicholas Zyppel thank you thank you! The review take allot of work but this one was very fun to do!
absolutely impeccable intro mate
Miguel Bartolomeus I appreciate it!
First comment for the sick video on my car! Thanks Vinetii!!!!!
akunochi Sick car!
I really do love this review man!
How come intercoolers are placed inside the engine bay sometimes? I see it a lot on rx7 and supras actually.
Sick car,really good video! Liked it a lot!
N0SK1LLS thank you thank you!
sooo damn badass!!! Great video man!
takis659 thanks!!! I appreciate it!
lets get this dude some subs. quality stuff.
Stanzy _PGH thanks I'm glad you enjoy it!
Great coverage of one sexy FD. Nice editing and production too. Better than most "professional" RUclipsrs out there. I really enjoyed the video.
enjoyed that review man good work!
John Carmichael thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!
Nice production quality and sick car.
Gregory G thank you very much! Glad you like it!
why is the E-brake not down all the way???
Beautiful car. I love the Rob Dougan - Furious Angels remix music btw.
saitousan15 thank you!
Why does the hood not fit?
Does this car have front and rear fenders flared? Usually the RE rx7s are but I don't see the rivits.
No it doesn't. I'm adding the widebody pieces later this year. I'm having some traction issues when I launch so I need more meat.
Okay thank you for the info. I'm Building my own rx7 but its not gonna have as much power and I really liked how this looked but I'm hesitant to start cutting into the body.
ISubZeroKelvinII yeah its the ad9 kit. The wide body is the ad-gt kit if i remember correctly

If you ever watched Initial D, you must be familiar to that aero kit
That intro was awesome!
Thank you I appreciate that!!!!
One of the most beautiful rx7 damn ..auto sub
Nice camera work and editing... That FD is supreme. I would've went with bigger twins.
HustleHabit some like twins but single is by far my favorite on these cars!
I was on Kadena when he pulled in with the car after just dialling in his turbo and he jumped alot of his coolant on the pavement due to a clamp slippin. Hopefully it got torqued to max ft.lbs.
thats an re gt3 wing... not gt2
you beat me to it
Well that's what I was told! Sorry for the mistake, they happen!
Is your buddy in the Marines or Army?
Nagasode Toshi I believe the army
Nagasode Toshi dfh
why no re amemiya rear diffuser?
Kromesta cause i had to rebuild the motor. Ill add the diffuser with the widebody in the future.

Mazda RX7 😍😍😍. Good video bro.👍
great review........ but there just so many car review channels now and I'm already subbed to like 8 different car review channels
mintkendishin if you look at all my videos you would notice that only 2 of twenty something videos are car reviews, my main focus is cinematic features. check out my playlist to see the cinematic videos. also I'm probably the only one of those 8 who lives in Japan hahaha
so he got this car stock and built it to be like that and whats an air oil separator tank
He built a good majority of the car yes, I believe he only bought it with the Aero modifications.

Excellent video, thanks for sharing!
Subbed! Amazing car.
how mich so I habe to PayPal for auch Thing like this?
nice video! I would like to see a impreza spec c review something like that :)
Martin Walz Test Drive I do know of someone with one! I'll see if I get get it in the lineup!
What?!?!?!?! Nobody else picked up on the gaping holes in the intake pod filter 😮 ouchies 😓
Beautifully done video man! 👍👍 teach me your camera work plz!
YourCarBro thank you bro, it's all in the stabilizer, brought my vids to a new level
The camera work is really good, don't know what equipment you are using or what you are doing different but it works, editting is also good. Pacing is good, your cuts between talking points are spot on. Gg... Actually upvoted and commented.
The Hot Wheels car, The 24/Seven, Is based on the Mazda RX-7 FD3S.
Who's Here from Keisuke's Amemiya stage 4 And 5 RX-7 Kit.
Another video brought you here?
Vinetii No, But Initial D's RX-7 Brougth me Here.
すごーい！
Bro that was sick! Didn't know they allowed pornographic content on RUclips...
MERC Films dude you just made my day haha hahahaha
I like how its properly dirty like a car should be. 👍
I think the Mazda RX-7 FD3S is my favorite 90's Japanese sports car.
i knew off rip it Was Oki. dying to get back that way for some cars.
This car is super crazy!! I have owned 3 RX cars starting back in 1991 with a convertible version 2. After that I purchased a 93 RX version 3 twin turbo. That car was the most amazing stock car ever.

I love how the car still seems pretty lively when you blipped the revs on the guage view. Going from twin to single certainly didn't diminish it's capabilities at low revs.
Punit S that is correct, compared to the stock twins which I have driven before, it still feels just as responsive!
Good review and editing
Beautiful FD
subd love the vid narration
great video review
Apart from the car.. the instrumental is legit... Who produced this beat??
Jermaine Linton the songs info and link is in the description!
The Legendary
nice car!! song??
We need an update video. He's putting a 20b in it!
Let's hope boys that tj hunt doesn't fuck up another car
That lowkey clean
ThatBassBooster I tried sending him this video once it was known he was going RE Amemiya hahah
I think the car was bought like that, I don't think he built it.
@7:39 Is that Birdman?
FUEGO!!!
Dream car
Ryo Ryp it was an honor that I got to drive this car, so beautifully built!
The owner of this car should use RE-Amemiya Level Man V-mount instead of Knightsports V-mount.
Also, should get RE-Amemiya titanium dolphin tail, instead of that Trust/GReddy Ti catback, if he is building a full RE-A car.
RE-A 3 points front strut bar, to replace that Mazdaspeed front strut bar. The signature RE-A fender mirrors, instead of stock side mirrors. The list can go on . This car is far from full RE-A build, in my opinion.
Well its definitely an amazing car and its built how the owner wanted it and that's what really matters, If you want to take my saying that its a fully built RE-Amemiya so literal than that's all good and I don't blame you, I am not an expert on every JDM car ever built let alone every version of every car ever built. The car is being completely rebuilt as we speak and is torn down into pieces so what's coming next will be great. Thank you though for your opinion
Clubbed to Death Trap
vid was dope
Can they sent it to American nations??just the cool let American people see the worth of its design on Re-Amemiya..
リバイアライアン once car is 25 years old, it can be sent to America!

Clean as fuck. Nuff said
since when does Itsuki review cars
gale when he became lonely dorivaa
mint rx7
KEISUKE BUT UN BLUE
Lemme know if he wanna sell it ;)
That was bad ass!
FD damn
coolest car ever made
while R34 , 300ZX goes for modern styled
FD start a Futuristic Style even that 90s car still looks cool even a BUGATTI CHIRON CANT Match it
only Lambo can
and that FD is a blue my favorite color is blue and its using Re Amemiya
so its the best
Subbed :)
4-point harness on a car? Let alone a track-car? Ouch... I guess it makes the car a blue submarine then? :)
Beautiful car but it needs more HP before it's considered fully built!!!! I wish I lived in Japan so you could check out my FD.

I would consider it fully built, power isnt the only thing my friend, for the track 400hp are perfect
Big hp, big torque is not a track race thing. Its a drag racing. This car setup is for track & touge. Having 400 hp on track is great

Body needs some work. Other than that, not a bad FD.
He tracked the car o that explain most of the light damage but this car has been through a full transformation since this video. Now i believe it is widebody and closer to 800whp
Your taste in sun glasses disappoints me...but cool video tho.
(RE amemia) Ive heard also (RE a-men-ya)
Michael Mansour it's spelled Amemiya like I have it, you can even see their on their website
www.re-amemiya.co.jp/

no background music next time please
The aftermarket tacho is rubbish. Wow quad 850's!. I have 1300 primaries and 2000 secondaries lol.
Captn Insno wow great for you! You did more to your rx7 than someone else did!
400hp is not much. I had 350hp in a fb rx7 (980kg) nearly 20 years ago.! Go wind some boost up and get a bbetter ecu. Plus 2000 secondary injectors and see what you get 👍
シートベルト4点あかんやろ？
Shit, this is pretty much the same as my wifes car, body kit turbo etc lol guy really excited, for what is tame in the way fds can get.
I love seeing FDs here in Japan. So many different ideas and awesome mods that can be done!
Those glasses haha
gimme gimme
Wish the song wasn't dubstep. Kinda ruin it
Less talk more pulls we wanna hear the car
the camera setup I had didn't do the car justice. I just recently received a setup to actually mic up the cars from now on. They will be much better I promise you! thank you for the input
lol that was a review?
nice video, get rid of the glasses they look kinda lame. Good editing.
I agree, they were the only ones I had at the time hahaha
great looking car shame about the bobble head sitting in it reading off his phone
Jim_Gates one, noticed I'm at a red light while reading off it, and you really expect someone to memorize a list of over 35+ modifications come the day they receive a car they have only seen once before in their life? I'm not a knowledge expert on rx7s and I will never claim to be
Not to mention about the shitters and Jokers fighting about 13B vs LS.
Bruuuuhhhhhhh
ah-may-me-ah, not m-m-eeya ;)
Ben Mich i was cringing every time he said it wrong. Is it really so difficult to pull up a hot version or best motoring video on youtube to learn how to pronounce the name correctly?
Otherwise it was a good video.
日本の公道での４点式シートベルトは、道路交通法違反ですよ。
Looks cheap
you need so much help fam... gotta learn mo about the rotang clan
