    he he... bro, those are body codes of two Mazda RX7's. Usually kc mga enthusiasts and tuners call cars that way like; R34- Nissan GTR, S13- Nissan Silvia, B13- Sentra/Sunny, EK and ES- Honda Civic...

    Pro the new civic body is also called "FD" , sana iniba man lang ng Honda coz being a popular sportscar that it is, the RX7 should have its own unique code.

    Honda calling its Civic the "FD" has nothing to do with Mazda's calling its RX-7s "FD3S". More like coincidence, really...Honda's got its own naming system for chassis, as I explained earlier.

    If it's any consolation, there's no "FD3" Civic to my knowledge...so it's not an exact copy of the Mazda's chassis code

    bro, as what KBR said:

    FD = 3rd Generation 1993 Turbo (yung dilaw na RX7)
    FC = 2nd Generation 1986 Mazda RX7 Turbo (yung puti na RX7)



    yung 1983 model, FB ang tawag doon

    First of all I know that it's FD3S, but it's more popularly known as the "FD" only. But now since the new Honda almost uses the same body code, it's actually causing quite a confusion to the name tagging especially by tuners and enthusiasts...

    Just ask my friend's U.S troop (tuner * night ) bf based on Japan.. coz before they just call the RX7 as FD, now they have to be very clear and use the complete code w/c is the FD3S! There are more misunderstanding because of it, there are according to him a lot of wrong performance parts deliveries coz of this.

    Good question.

    The 1983 RX-7 is internally called the "SA22C." The North American cars got the letters "FB" stamped on their chassis, but they refer to the same car.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RX-7

    Most of us probably remember "Shaider"...Annie's ride was a yellow SA22C Mazda RX-7.

    Mazda's "S" chassis designation made a comeback with the 2003 Mazda RX-8, which is internally called the "SE3P."
