Aftermarket Icon: The RE Amemiya RX-7
For 7’s day 2018, we will look at a pair of FD RX-7s that have cemented themselves as the definitive style icons for the Rotary Mazda. We have here the first among the two – the car that made people see just how much the RX-7 is truly capable of.
I will admit, growing up as a kid the FD3S RX-7 wasn’t the apple of my eye during the earlier years. Truth be told, the Zenki (early model) body just felt like there was something missing. The body, while edgeless and distinguishable through its svelte coke-bottle profile, lacked a certain aggression to it. It felt as if the RX-7 just didn’t have enough muscle underneath the curves. Of course this would all change once the Kouki (facelifted) version came into play, but then the more recognizable – and most striking – changes to the FD would come from the aftermarket.
Following binge watching of Best Motoring Hot Version Touge battles as well as paying religious attention to Initial D during my teenage years, I’ve become familiar with just how much you can build upon the body and performance of the RX-7. Plenty of shops and teams have their own version of the lithe Mazda coupe, but few would stack in performance and style against RE Amemiya. Thanks to their consistent performance in Super GT, Super Taikyu, and all those Best Motoring Tsukuba Lap Battles, RE Amemiya have cemented themselves not only as the go-to Rotary performance shop, but as an icon of the JDM aftermarket altogether.
Among the countless FDs the Chiba outfit have built, perhaps the instantly recognizable one would be the Light Blue AD GT version you see here. Clearly built as a tribute to the original car, this particular car is sporting the most accurate RE Amemiya demo FD3S look around town – and there’s no stone left unturned to bring the RX7 to this spec.
The iconic AD GT kit sets itself apart from standard fare with several key details. The front end becomes more aggressive thanks to the Facer AD02 front bumper and the AD Hood-9 bonnet. Apart from transforming the RX-7’s front end, the bumper and hood serve to channel more air in and out of the engine bay – these rotaries run really hot after all. Another signature touch of the Amemiya FD sees the removal of the pop-up headlamps in favor of a streamlined fixed headlamp setup housing two pairs of IPF lamps.
In the bid for more traction AD GT front and rear fenders widen the FD by about 20mm, thereby allowing for wider wheels and tires to be fitted. This FD sticks to the Amemiya formula by mounting a set of Enkei RPF1s in 18×9.5 +15 up front and 18×10.5 +15 out back. Behind the RPF1’s thin spokes lie a set of Greddy 6-pot Big Brakes front and rear – ensuring this 7 will stop just as well as it goes.
Despite looking like they’re made for show, the rear section completes the ensemble with the AD GT Wing and rear diffuser – both pieces that guarantee stability at high cornering speeds. The Amemiya AD GT rear diffuser made for such a nice part that some folks even try to retrofit them into other vehicles like GDB STIs and S2000s. This particular piece sits right at home where it belongs though.
This particular FD’s interior had a lot more work put into it compared to other RX7s in town. For starters, the base car itself is an original left hand drive unit with complete panels and interior bits intact – a rarity even among local RX-7 folk. Among the little changes added were the RE Amemiya shift knob, Defi Gauges, and a pair of Bride Stradia bucket seats.
Considering this RX-7 made its rounds as a show car, the engine bay had a lot of attention paid to it as well. A full wire tuck brings out the prominent pieces of the bay like the V-Mount intercooler and the Borgwarner big single turbo. Pushing roughly 400hp, the Amemiya kit has its work cut out for keeping the power in check at speed.
Thanks to the efforts of RE Amemiya, rotary enthusiasts around the world have had constant support and motivation to push the RX-7’s temperamental engine. This car is a constant reminder of what the FD RX-7 truly stands for: raw power with the right balance and handling. So, are you ready to see the next FD we have lined up?

It is a powerful concept that encourages individuals to streamline digital experiences while fostering genuine connections.

-
Curate your online presence by unfollowing accounts that do not inspire you.
-
Focus on quality over quantity in your digital connections.
-
Implement a digital detox day each week to engage in offline activities like hiking or reading.
-

What Makes It Different from Other Wellness Practices
Milyom (M) differs from other wellness practices because it is not about intensity or competition. Milyom focuses on internal awareness and purposeful alignment. Unlike trend-based fitness routines, each movement in Milyom (M) is slow and connected to breath. This prevents overstimulating the nervous system. While traditional practices may chase external results, Milyom (M) practitioners observe energy flow and mental patterns to develop long-term emotional regulation.
Mental Clarity and Emotional Balance Through Milyom
Mental fatigue and emotional overwhelm decrease when you practice Milyom (M). Milyom addresses stress by placing a strong focus on mindfulness and breath regulation. Slow, rhythmic breathing signals the nervous system to shift into a calmer state. This reduces stress hormones naturally. Consistent practice helps you process thoughts clearly without judgment. Improved focus and better emotional control are common outcomes for those who integrate these strategies into their daily routines.
The Science Behind Why It Works
The science behind it involves the regulation of the autonomic nervous system (ANS). Slow movement, breathwork, and mindfulness lower cortisol levels and improve heart rate variability (HRV). Research supports that these elements are essential for long-term stress management. By enhancing mind-body communication, Milyom (M) supports sustainable health. This evidence-based perspective aligns with modern wellness standards by combining experiential wisdom with scientifically supported principles.
Who Can Benefit Most from Milyom
It is suitable for a wide range of individuals, including:
-
Professionals managing high stress or recovering from burnout.
-
Digital artists like Jake (J) who need to regain creative focus.
-
Students like Lisa (L) who struggle with distractions from streaming services.
-
Creators seeking to optimize their posts and revenue streams.
Because it emphasizes self-awareness rather than performance, it adapts naturally to individual physical capabilities.

No Show Blues: Celebrating Tokyo Auto Salon Week
The second week of January marks the “holy pilgrimage” of every JDM fan boy: Japan’s famous Tokyo Auto Salon. Spanning twelve halls full of every tuning car and genre you can think of, TAS is effectively a 3-day ultimate sensory trip for its attendees. Show grounds aside, countless events are always held around Tokyo during the weekend – completely bringing japanese street car culture to life. We’ve been covering the show for a few years (once during 2019 for S63), however due to the Coronavirus, the show was cancelled for the first time in 37 years.
To somehow celebrate the bond and fond memories formed through attending various meets and trips to the show, we held a small gathering of friends at the Crossroads parking lot last January 13, 2021. Following local COVID-19 guidelines, friends from Stance Pilipinas / Manila Fitted, Legends of the 90s and Buzzhype gathered at the “home turf”.
While it’s a far cry from the automotive mecca that is Daikoku PA, the BGC Crossroads Carpark, also known as ‘The Turf’, is as much the equivalent of a local automotive melting pot – meaning this would be the best place to stage a small gathering of folks that share the likeminded ideal of being inspired by the Tokyo Auto Salon.
Most of the cars present during the evening are inspired from our trips to the Land of the Rising Sun. As parts are individually flown in by its owners straight from Japan, the vehicles here are a healthy sampling of what could possibly be encountered out on the infamous highways of Tokyo.
Quality over quantity. A proper representation of the culture that set our imagination on fire. Here’s to hoping the Tokyo Auto Salon will be back on its feet for next year.
