They don't, even they have(Which is impossible), they won't be 280ps...Just forget it please.

sorry bud your wrong the jap spec spirirt type r puts out 279 horse power and thats only because of the 280 horse power limit that japan has for emissions so eat sh#t may be there is or isn't a awd rx-7 but I did read it in a published book not saying that books dont make mistakes but there are rx-7 that have 280 279 hp stock. But by any chance if someone does find one please write the web page on this post.

Please don't be an idiot. You're the one asking questions and getting answers, yet you're the one saying people don't know what they're talking about.

Yeah, and?

the only awd 7s were the custom rally cars by Rod Millen.

In japan they have 280hp but not AWD. the rotary engine doesn't have enough lowend torque to be AWD as where to get one it will be with steering wheel on right not sure but I think the US also got some with 280hp. you should just get one from here and with the money you dint spend to ship it here get rid of the twin turbo and put a better single turbo on it because they have lots of trouble with twin turbos just a thought could be wrong though

Would you please stop whining to people trying to answer your question.

Who in this forum doesn't know a 13B can make 280ps?
And, if there is any, I mean any AWD RX-7, the horsepower is gonna be less than the FR ones, don't ask me why, maybe it's just a marketing thing.

And by the way, I know how to read Japanese, so that I do believe I have a far better chance finding stuffs about a Japanese company than you do.

dont be an idiot. why come in and ask questions then start flaming on people when you get answers?

yes, the 1998-2002 FD3S had 280 flywheel horsepower BUT none were EVER all wheel drive from the factory.

The only few AWD RX7s I've seen or heard of is the AWD FC3S built by RE Amemiya-san and Rhys Millen. Neither are stock and both are probably putting out more than a mere 280 horsepower.
