The way to get a Rx-7 FB Spirit R 1984

As far as older cars come. I always thought that old Mazda's had pretty good boxes aye! A good position, positive feel, and a nice throw . Nothing compared to modern cars of today though! hahah.

I must heat my garage and the shifter 20h to get good results with the sikaflex 221 i. After fitting also a new rubber mount for the box, all working like new when made some test drive now.

Especially the rear gear problem was fixed now. No gases inside anymore.

The more weight the shorter the shifter

Thomas would you recommend fitting this type of Watts link if the rest of the car was standard ?

I would recommend this type for more security if the centrifugal forces on your rear will be higher then standard or rust was a killer of your parts. So the two screw breaking on the road, you will need a new car i think.

I agree with Thomas quite strongly there. Many of these cars have bent watts link studs aye.

Any ideas where to get this link ?
