Hm, I think his plans is to get it as original and nice as possible. Maybe some minor engine mods he says. I'm trying to get as many people into this site as possible. But it seems like its a forgotten car or something :)
Your telling me! Have been trying to promote this forum for the last year or so :P

Most of the people who have HB's seem to only have them for a while before selling up - although I seem to be finding more and more enthusiasts out there :)

Haha, I've got nothing better to do! I just need to learn how to weld... We did indeed get all the generations of rx7, and a few rx2-3-4s I think. I am not really sure so please don't shoot me if I'm wrong! We have the rx8 aswell. But I don't really like that car as much, it's cool though. :)

Cool Aaron, maybe maybe =)

I'm going to put a rotary in eventually. Not sure if I'll do it myself though. Because the laws are quite tight around this rebuild thingy which makes it harder to get it approved. So I'm quite sure I am going to put the work to a workshop which specializes in rotary! Then it will probably be a 12a carby or 13b single!

our laws here suck too mate.....
most of the time approval here requires engineer certificates to be legal and registerable.....
approval is much easier though if changing to another OEM engine option for same model
like HB:
           2.0MA-2.0FE-2.0FEturbo-12A-12AT-13B wouldnt require engineering certification

and if u decrease capacity too e.g from 2.0 FE Turbo to 12A approval is easier,
hopefully ill make conv look easy.....haha

Damn :( I'm calling and calling workshops all around but noone seem to have a right front fender for me. I found a left one though, should get it for free aswell if I picked it up. Might do that!

Have you tried asking those two guys on the norway mazda forum if they have any spares? Or know of anyone with them? :)

I think it would be the second or the third APPROVED HB with rotary, it has been done but I dont think many got it approved :(

Yeh, asked all of them. I know that two of them has parts but theire kinda difficult to get ahold of. They aren't much on the net I think!
