Engine: 13B Bridgeport carby

Exhaust: 2x2" into 3" stainless

Wheels: 15x7+8 globes

Modifications: See below

Stereo Audio / Visual: None!

Estimated Power: Was 160hp, now roughly 180-200hp at the wheels


This is my 71 series 1 Mazda Rx2 capella

Owned it for 6 months now, Previous owner has had the car sitting in the shed for around 10 years.

Spent alot of time fixing up wiring, tidied up the engine and done all the road worthy parts. Spent a few $$$

Fitted new radiator, oilcooler, wheels, new carpet.. few other bits and pieces!

Got the body repaired as it had dints and cracks in the paint work so i got the car all resprayed in same colour in PPG Deltron 2pack.

Has a rx4 13b bridgeport motor, 48mm ida weber, gilmer drive, 5 speed Rx4 box, s2 rx7 dizzy, Koni adjustable suspension. Exhaust was stuffed so power figure came to 160hp at the wheels.

Got new exhaust built, full stainless twin 2" to the diff into one single 3" AES rear muffler, loud as hell! Got alot more power now,

Needs to be retuned again, so hoping the 180-200hp mark would be nice!

Planning to keep it "semi" original, in time to retrim the interior, still have original console to fit and few minor things.

Sorry photos are a bit average!

Thanks for looking!
