I don’t know about you guys but one of the most iconic cars that come to mind when you think about hero vehicles from the last 50 years has got to be the Mazda RX7. It was a futuristic car way ahead of its time and had an engine (wankel rotary) so unique that it became a legend in the worldwide car community.

The cars engine and looks were very unique to its time period it was manufactured in, from 1992-2002. The engine put out a very healthy 188 kilowatts mated to a 5 speed manual transmission which gave the lightweight vehicle great agility and control. Over the years it has become a favourite among car lovers for its ability to be modified and also due to its iconic (braapp braapp) engine sound.

This is one of those vehicles that when you start it up you just want to go down an empty backroad, with the windows down and revving the engine to 8000rpms producing that invigorating sound that makes people smile from ear to ear.

The SR20 turbo a.k.a SR20DET and the 5-speed combo is the top of the range SR20 180SX that you could buy. Overall, this car makes a great project car, being very rewarding and not too challenging to modify.  SR20DET 180SX This engine uses a square 86.0mm bore and stroke to achieve a 1998cc swept capacity, while its compression ratio is 8:5:1. The max power is 150kW (at 6000rpm) and max torque is 275Nm (at 4000rpm).  DRIFTING The Nissan 180SX was a famous drift car.

This JDM wonder had a very stylish futuristic design with rear freestyle doors that open backwards, making it feel luxurious and supercar like. It gained popularity early on due to the success of the RX-7 in the overseas market with enthusiasts lining up to get the successor to the famous rotary engine. It was light weight with enough power to push the car through the corners and to its limits. Due to its engine design the car is capable of driving at a very high RPM for long amounts of time making it not only fast but sound incredible.   It was slightly larger than the RX-7 having more space enabling rear passengers to fit.
