One of the most sought after early model Mazdas out there, the GT Savanna RX3 Coupe holds legend status amongst rotary enthusiasts... When Dave presented his genuine coupe to us it was a neat car that was in desperate need of saving, having been messed about by previous shops - examples can be seen in the image gallery.
A big job to rectify and deliver exactly what the customer was after, the makeover of this car was as close to a full ground-up rebuild as you can get, without stripping the car right back and starting from scratch. Apart from the rear half of the body and some of the interior, everything else on the car has been replaced and or upgraded to deliver the results you see here, a build that we believe does the car justice!
Running a Billet By Pac 13BT, Full MoTec M130 management system and pretty much a full Pac catalogue of parts & bolt-ons, this car is absolutely Immaculate and a dream to drive!
