  • A warm welcome to everyone checking out my latest UA-cam video!
    In this episode, I share with you my thoughts on this absolutely ridiculous Mazda RX3. Considered as the Godfather of the rotaries, many of whom regard the RX3 as one of the best cars Mazda had ever made. Most owner's tuck their cars under covers for years to come but this car however, this example is built with purpose in mind. An unbelievable driving machine... Find out what I think of this car in the video!
    Huge thank you to the owner Peter - / pndinteriors for letting me drive his pride and joy. Please go over to the link and check out his car in full detail!

    My 72 RX-3 12A (in 1975) , I could drop the clutch from 3rd to 4th gear at 90 MPH, and it would double-rear-wheel hop back and forth most all the way up to 115 MPH. Stock from the engine change by the factory from a 10A to the 12A.
    I never lost a race, even with blown corvettes or a Kawasaki Z-1's... it was the "Space Ship" - like the USS Enterprise going into warp drive - it was the fastest car that has ever existed. The rear wheels would squeal as soon as the RPM's hit 4000 (cross-over to the 2nd set of retarded points) - I'd have to back off of the throttle just to maintain traction as I would rocket-launch by my opponent vette- going 3x the acceleration rate like they were standing still. There was plenty of room left over as it would peg out at 10500 rpm but could never go more than about 115 to 120 as it was so light that the nose angle would make it float up over 115. With ground effects on a calm day, I'm sure it would have done the 160 MPH on the speedo. God I miss that car...

    When the engine blew up I Managed to source a 12A with Automatic 3 Speed, boy it did'nt have any Lag at all at Port Botany during 1980's before the authorities put Speed Humps. It sure did give the V8's a run for their money as it looked like a slapped.

    It's a great car but please remember it has a later model RX-7 13B engine with a turbo. It would not perform or have 600hp if it didn't have the engine upgrade. So you really can't say it's a 45 yr old car when the one of the main parts of the cars age the engine has been upgrade to a later model RX-7 FD engine.
