Engine and mechanical condition
Rebuilt engine - compression test completed
The 13B-REW rotary engine has been fully rebuilt recently in Japan, ensuring reliability and long-term peace of mind. A complete compression test was performed after the rebuild with the following results:
Compression test results
Front rotor: 118 / 117 / 119 psi
Rear rotor: 122 / 123 / 120 psi
These figures are well within the ideal range for a rebuilt rotary engine and confirm a healthy, balanced engine.
Understanding the compression test (rotary engine)
A compression test on a rotary engine evaluates the condition of the combustion chambers and apex seals. For a rebuilt 13B-REW, ideal compression values are typically 110-120 psi per face, with peaks up to 125 psi.
Indicative scale
110-125 psi: Excellent (as new)
95-110 psi: Good condition
80-95 psi: Noticeable wear
70-80 psi: Poor, rebuild recommended
Below 70 psi: Critical, rebuild required
The difference between faces of the same rotor should remain under 7-10 psi. In this case, the results are consistent and even, confirming the strong mechanical condition of the rebuilt engine.
Chassis and suspension
Bilstein coilover suspension
The suspension setup improves road holding while maintaining usable comfort. The chassis feels precise, responsive, and true to the RX-7 reputation as one of the best-balanced sports coupes of its era.
Mileage and history
Original mileage: 27,600 km
The previous owner stopped using the vehicle when the engine began to show signs of wear. The car was then sold to a garage, where the engine rebuild was carried out, before being acquired by us. This explains the very low mileage combined with the recent mechanical refurbishment.
Interior condition
The interior shows visible wear consistent with the vehicle age. It is not concours condition, but remains complete, functional, and original. A light cosmetic refresh could be considered, but the focus here is clearly on driving enjoyment and mechanical integrity.
Registration and documentation
French registration (carte grise francaise)
Japanese maintenance records available
Summary
A rare opportunity to acquire a Mazda RX-7 FD3S Type R with very low mileage, a rebuilt rotary engine with recorded compression results, French registration, and the iconic Black (PZ) color. An ideal car for enthusiasts or collectors looking for a genuine, well-sorted RX-7 that is ready to drive, not just admire.
