Hey guys, well as some of you may know I have recently been in hospital for around 4 weeks and was diagnosed with a rare auto immune system disease.. long story short and to save the boring crap I figured it was a better time than any to run out and buy my dream car! After alot of searching (what else can you do in a hospital bed?) I found the perfect car for me.

Its a 1976 Mazda 808. Now Im sure there are a few rotor haters but I have loved them all my life. It has a 13b extend mild port, TO4E turbo, pwr coolers, series V box, 9inch diff and a original 12a rx3 front end. Heaps more small extras but wont go to much into it. I plan on dropping in a auto and taking her down the creek :)

Nup, love the little buzz box's.

Nothing sounds quite like a 13b at full noise.

Much love for the old school mazdas.

I always regret selling my rx3 coupe. I'm always looking for oportunitys to say I used to own it. I'll buy another when I'm older. :buttrock:

Great car. Love the sound of those thumping at idle.

Sorry to hear about the ailment. My mom has suffered from Myasthenia Gravis all her life. Still could not beat her to death with a stick. Often thought of it.

All the best bud. Take care.

Love your little 808 mate!

I miss my old R100 big time, Id love another old school rotor, definately a car Id love to own again.

The next one Id like is an RX2 coupe to go circuit sprinting in, striped out, converted to two seater and caged with a MazFix EFI Bridge or peripheral port 13B (screw the noise restrictions lol!)

I just love teh way a NA rotary delivers its power and teh sound oooo YEH! to me they sound pure RACE!
