Attention Australians!!
hey guys,
did mazda put out a factory manual for the 12a turbo? if so what are the chances one of you boys down under could get ahold of one and ship it to me?...i'd definately pay you for your trouble. any year is fine really(or is it?) i just want to do the research before i get in over my head.
p.s.-used is a-ok the cheaper the better!
thanks,
nopistonsforjoe

MikeLMR's right... the only 12A Turbo's we have over here are imorts. And since they were only sold new in Japan it makes it unlikely that there would even be an English version. If there is one I'm sure the dealer could get it though. Hell, when I was after some brake caliper boots both Mazda Australia and Japan were out of stock so Japan had a batch made up for me.

Unfortunately there never was a Japanese language workshop manual for the RX-7 with the 12AT. The instruction to dealers in September 1983 was to use the existing RX-7 manual and refer to the 12AT engine suplement in the Cosmo manual.
