We offer a boutique service by restoring a small number of cars per year (generally our cars and our friends’ cars). We also consult on rotary car purchase as well as offering guidance on restoration, rebuilds, automatic to manual conversions, and modification.

You might save a $10-15k rebuild expense by purchasing the right car with a proper pre-purchase inspection including a properly run rotary compression test at operating temperature. Even low mileage FD RX7s are not immune to low compression even when the car hot starts seemingly correctly.

Our services.

  • Auto to Manual Transmission Conversions

    We began FX JDM by specializing in automatic to manual conversions for FD RX-7s!

    Referencing original factory documentation and utilizing OEM parts, we do everything. From making custom wrapped wiring harnesses for the OEM manual transmission sensors, swapping the driveshaft and differentials, to even fabricating clutch pedals using OEM pedal faces. Our goal is for you to hop into one of our Manual swapped cars, and believe it came that way from the factory.

    Feel free to read through the documentation we’ve developed for ourselves to complete these swaps.

  • Engine Rebuild

    Now that crate motors doubled in price late 2023 to $9,500 new, the best option is to rebuild your motor. We can remove your engine, strip it down, have it ported, refresh the rotor seals, and if you really want the best engine, replace the irons and rotor housing with brand new ones for all new compression surfaces. Essentially a new engine block. Mazda doubled the price of crate motors but left the major components only slightly increased in price.

  • Power Upgrades

    We’ve been driving modified twin turbo RX-7’s tuned by the best minds in the business since the early 2000’s. Despite great success, some of us have always craved a bit more power than the stock twins offer.

    We’re developing a process to perform Single Turbo conversions with name-brand kits, and looking to collaborate with rotary tuning professionals.

    Check back with us on this process soon.

  • Restoration

    As our favorite JDM platforms reach thirty years of age, many examples have been lost to time.

    Due to age, rust, or even crashes, the amount of our favorite machines on the road dwindles each year. We do everything we can to restore and bring back examples within our scope using OEM parts from our inventory or through our sources.

  • Suspension and Brakes

    We’ve got plenty of experience servicing and installing brakes. With aftermarket kits, or just fresh pads and a bleed, we never forget about the most important aspects of our vehicles.

    We also evaluate the integrity of our suspension components and install frequently, and service or repair what’s needed.

  • Troubleshooting

    We have knowledge on the factory sequential turbo system, EGR system, and just about any other part that could leak or cause issues.
