it would be putting out alot of performance

Efini is French word meaning in English INFINITY.

The 'EFINI' is the japanesse name for the FD3S series of RX-7's

depends what model it is, can be 240 , 260, 280 bhp

that sort of power would be pulling 12sec 1/4 mile, as most of the 300bhp do on the owners club.

IIRC some of the 2nd gen ones had efini on. Also, 330bhp isn't really enough to get into the 12 second quarters. Maybe high 12's, but not easily

They produced a prototype, then a Mazda Familia lightweight, Efini 2
Then the FC which is the Efini 3. The last of the FC's, Lightweight and slightly more power. The Efini FC was a Huge success.

It was such a success that they used the name on the Rx7 from the release in Japan.


you would be supised thes baby run fast qtr miles

Mine only got a 14.5 1/4. But then I can't do drag racing for shit . They're 13.9 for the standard 265bhp model, but I wouldn't have thought and extra 80bhp will lose 1 1/2 seconds off the 1/4m. Ross's white one had a 1/4 in the low 12's (don't quote me on that tho) and he has 450 summat bhp (again, I think)

Efini actually wasn't the name for the FD3S 3rd Gen, Efini was Mazda's 'SPORTY' brand, they tried to branch off like toyota did with lexus, allthough it nearly bankrupted them as people got confused... that's when ford stepped in.
