Ah, brings back memories. I had a used FC when I was in college, an 86 N/A. I loved that little thing, learned manual on that, and had a ton of fun. I drove back and forth from NC to Chicago multiple times and from NC to Cali once. Did the N/As have a particularly weak transmission? I remember on a trip back to NC from Chicago, a couple of hours before arriving at home, 5th gear broke, so I drove over a hundred miles on the freeway with just 4 gears. The car was totally stock, not that anyone had any performance parts for it back in the early 90's. I remember it cost a bit over a grand to fix the transmission.
i love them.. i wish i could just keep buying them...
I had one. It was awesome. I loved that Mazda said, "Nope, we're not making an automatic transmission one of these. This car is for drivers only." Back when I had one in the late 80's, early 90's though, we did not have the internet. The terminology "FC" was not something I was familiar with. Mine was upgraded with a "high-flow" intake, and an HKS exhaust system. Back then HKS would sell directly to the public, and I have the catalog from 1991 to prove it. I clocked a 14.2 quarter mile in mine, which was pretty solid for the time period.
I had an 87 turbo II with HKS/Racing Beat (250+HP) parts years ago, I loved that car to death. Still miss it years later...
I know it's not a big difference, but I think an fc with the hood scoop and spoiler is one of the best looking cars ever, but if you take those away it looks really off putting.

i personally like the wide body on the fc as well it makes it look way nicer in my opinion. but without any of that it looks so off putting
yes! another fc video. totally thumbs up!
Nice vid! I'm glad there are channels like this that mostly focus on Mazda.
Nice video mannn, fully explained and cool editing
The FC is an amazing car thats for sure! Has such a sleek look to it! ;)
WOW! I never knew I had a rare RX... my 87 RX was 2x2. Excellent video!
*eurobeat intensifies*
I like the FC3S, reminds me Initial-D.
Ayeee lmao my pic of you and Frankie’s RXs hahaha
Thanks for this!
Great car and video!
I always see one parked full of webs on my block . Didn't know how cool it is .
THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO!!!
Quality video! I want one.
beautiful I want an fc so bad!
Isn't the Thumbnail based on the Initial D Red Sun's FC?
Subscribed. Just bought a FC S5 NA for drifting project car. Would like to learn more about FC from you. :D
Just bought one...13b turbo...Luv it......go rotor....
I absolutely love mine 🔥
Been looking so long for a decent S5 but i keep finding them as verts and i hate verts. I guess when you really want something it is sometimes worth the wait.
good video, well put together and compact. I just have one complaint, why no exhaust sounds at all? That noise would be better than any outro music.
Great vid
This is my dream car anythinggg I should know if i ever get one
Just found out that my 1990 RX7 FC is GTUs with all kinds of factory goods....Plus a Full complete set of 17x8F/9R Mazdaspeed/Ray's Engineering MS01-LMs(LeMans) 2-piece Magnesium wheels but I really enjoyed the video just wish you would have included a little more information on those rare and hard-to-find RX7 FC's
I drive a red turboII in HS. I had a lot of fun and miss it. Sadly after the coolant started mixing with the oil I traded it in. I think it was a cracked coolant passage seeping into the oilpan.

Is that what made it smoke?, i had the chance to buy one back in 1997, in SC a 1991 Purple Mazda Rx-7 GTU convertible w/blk top Turbo ed. 5 spd. it had a hood scoop and a gold wheel half spoke trim package, at the time i knew it was a very special type because all the rest i've seen were not like that, but i was also on the fence of getting a 1991.5 Honda Accord Ex sedan on the same day, what made me go with the Honda as i really like that turbo GTU style Rx-7, was when the dealer cranked it up and it was steadily smoking and i was upset as i really wanted the car and he thought that he was going to hussle me.
Nice video! We have a review in our channel (in spanish) of an FC too.

I've been thinking about getting an fc but I dont know nothing about them but are they reliable? Are parts easy to get? What about maintenance? How do I mod them to make it fast where should I start for more power? I just want a fun fast reliable car
Is the FC single turbo stock? I hear the engine is the 13B-T, not the 13B-REW
Does anyone know how it is getting an fc shipped? Any tag related complications?
Someone know the specific name of rx7 fc like gtu or gtx and what it means?
You forgot about the GTU, thats the one im about to get lol
Hello fc, nice to meet you, i love you
I need a turbo II
An FD chassis with an FC body please!
89 rx7 with 46,000 miles for 8,000usd is that good?
how much such a 77k mileage fc cost and how much is maintanence?
How much do you pay for car insurance on an rx7?
Seeing a PR flag in a rotary video. Is not uncommon
I regret selling my turbo II everyday
Tuned it to Re-Amemiya..
I’m having problems with my heater .
I wish the 13b was more reliable 😢
