Ep7: MAZDA RX-7 FD - The Rotary Spirit

The Mazda RX-7 FD is proof that greatness doesn’t need big displacement. Powered by the legendary 13B-REW — the world’s first mass-produced sequential twin-turbo rotary — this 1.3-litre machine made 280hp and weighed just 1,280kg. Designed by Tom Matano with curves shaped by wind, the FD dominated IMSA racing, inspired a generation through Initial D, and ended its 24-year run with the iconic Spirit R limited edition. From the streets of Tokyo to the mountain passes of Gunma, this is the car that proved triangles could change everything. Street Legends — iconic cars, untold stories.
