What model is my rx-7

Hi,

I am new to the world of RX-7's and wondered if someone could tell me what model mine is. it was first registered in 1986 and is a non turbo.

I dont know much else about it but can look if more info is required. I want to buy a new exhaust for it and dont want to buy the wrong one..

Cheeers Stu

It's possible it could be a GXL... but just by him telling us that it's an "86 non-turbo" you cannot just assume that it's a GXL. We need more information about the car.

all s4 na exhausts are the same so all you need to know is the year and that its a non turbo to get a new exhaust and you can block that small pipe off its for emissions but if your gonna block it off you might as well remove the acv and air pump

Euro models are not listed in the specifications section yet.

But all exhausts use the same hangers regardless of engine. If you have a non turbo, all non turbos use the same exhausts.
