Carlos’ FD3S RX-7

The 1990s were the golden era for Japanese sports cars. Mazda has always been a major innovator in the automotive industry. The third generation RX-7 was the culmination of the decades of experience they had acquired.  Like many others that grew up in this era, the FD RX-7 has always been Carlos’s dream car.

Looking for a new project to invest his time into, he began searching for a right hand drive FD.

Determined to raise the bar with his build, he acquired a 93 Spec RHD FD, a totaled 2002 RHD FD, and transferred every possible component of the car onto the 93 shell. 

Little by Little he started to completely restore the car.

The end result is a car that anyone can admire…

From the Restored SSR Koenig’s, to the immaculate Knightsports Bumper, this is truly a car that encapsulates one of the best automotive eras of all time.

Carlos would like to send a special thanks to DHP Customs, High Vision Detailing, and REW Imports .
