RX3 PP Posted November 7, 2014 Author Share Posted November 7, 2014 Spoke to to the man whom brought it from brand new, was registered as "1975 savanna rx3 coupe" the rear quarter badges weren't the only thing applied, there were other differences as mounting of the fuel pump, fuel tank cover, etc. it may be similar to a lot of other rx3's. Maybe as so little came to NZ, no one knows much about them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RX3 PP Posted November 9, 2014 Author Share Posted November 9, 2014 Ok so I've found out a bit more about the NZ new savanna, my mate has spoken to his old car painter who did a touch up on it years ago. The painter said If definitely had the square tail lights like the aus version and also on the rear passenger window had a GT badge, so this sounds more like what It should be like Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dell'orto Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Did you port it more? Thought the idea was to make it nicer to drive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RX3 PP Posted November 16, 2014 Author Share Posted November 16, 2014 No just a 3b main ports just cleaned up, full length bridge on secondary's. Just been for a drive, it drives like a standard engine, just beautiful. I call a 3b port big as that's all you need for a n/a engine.

kiwi808 Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 What's the boot seal like? I remember that John's first batch wasn't that good and you had to really slam the boot and it was hard to get the panels to line up. The problem he had was the metal clips inside. I know all his other rubber set are excellent. Is it better now? I could really do with a new boot seal, mine is almost squashed flat....
