best way to shop for parts?

[noight]

anyone have any tips for shopping for parts. i'm looking to fix up a old mazda rx7. the pull apart \ car junkyard place don't have any rx7s, so none of that...

anyone have any tips for finding such somewhat rare parts? nothing too expensive either pls.

RX7 owners clubs are a good place to start, they usually have classifieds sections for selling vehicles and parts.

Quick google brings up http://www.jimmys-rx7.co.uk/used-par...ries-3-fd.html unless its an FC and not an FD. Site sells for both, new and used.

Another vote for getting into an owners club.

Some even get impossible to source parts made in small batches in an owner's consortium.

@danceswithunix no mention of rx7 gsl on that website unforunately, efforts are appreciated though.

i'll definitely give the owners club a look. thanks for looking out guys.

The gsl is aparantly an FB, never even knew those existed till now. Many cars use the same, or compatible parts in later generations, and you can even find them in competitor cars too.

Here is another quick google search result with FB parts: http://www.mazdarotaryparts.com/mazda-rx-7-fb-228-c.asp

The car reminds me of a Nissan 280z, just a bit less agressive looking, but still nice

Rotary engines are... not for the feint hearted
