    Infini?

    Hey I"m sorry if this is the wrong place for this, but I need to find out everything I can about Infini and all I find is rx-7 stuff. I can't find the familia infini, but that would be nice to also find some logos for my car and infini parts. If you guys know anything, please share with me!

    Thanks,

    -Andy

    Infini is the JDM devision of Mazda, and only consist of the RX-7 and MX-5 if I'm correct.

    The English brand would be Eunos. Mazda MX-5 is called Eunos Roadster In Great Britain.

    So I doubt you will find more info, based on my knowledge, but hey : I can be wrong to...

      well here's is most of the info:

      BG mazda familia infini 1990 ( not sure of amount made has been quoted as maybe as low as 1500 up to as many as 3000 ? )
      right hand drive only
      japan new only, most now reside in New Zealand ( i have seen at least 4 locally ) we imported them secondhand ( as well as interplays & gtx's by the hundreds it would seem)
      shade green only (paint code GU) looks very dark green
      4-door sedan only
      unique grille
      rear spoiler
      carpet quoted as lightweight, has no sound deadener fixed from factory (weird place to save weight, better it would have had manual windows & mirrors etc), black sound deadener still fixed to shell like any other car.
      infini logo on horn button, front grille, wheel caps & bootlid
      unique factory front clear indicators
      facelift bonnet/headlight (slanty stlye)
      5-speed manual gearbox FWD viscous LSD only (26 spline unique driveshafts lengths at gearbox end)
      BP-ZE N/A engine only (most people in the know drop GTX or GTR turbo engines in as they are a perfect swap and best FWD chassis for swap due to the gearbox & brakes, loom, mounts etc)
      factory extras:
      momo steering wheel
      bbs 15" rims
      suede interior (purple/blackish) seats are same style as GTX in size
      leather gearboot & knob
      front & rear strut braces
      22mm sway bars front & rear
      rear tie bar
      180kmh speedo & 7100rpm redline tacho
      electric windows, rear view mirrors
      air con, quick rack power steering
      4 wheel disc brakes 250mm+ all 4 corners

      they look like this new:








      very often they are called by weird names by people who cant read for example:
      efini, infinity, infinty, efinti, etc etc there are no limits to what imaginative names people call them due to ignorance (word infini is written on front grille and back bootlid logo)

      i have owned my much abused and unloved one since i bought it in june 2006, probably one of the smoothest, better handling, most reliable cars i have owned (once i fixed some neglected areas of repair), fairly brisk but really yearns for turbo BP rather than N/A BP engine.

        I've decided that my car is a girl, she's picky as hell, won't listen to me, always wants to fight me, and when i give her presents it's never good enough and she always wants more.

                should this be stickied in non-US model discussion for future reference?, would be good to have one on the GTX & GTR as well to save a bit of time (someone else can do those)

Obviously I ain't alone, as there are a helluva lotta sti and evo here. Bueler? Beuler? Mazda? Mazda?

                            If they only came in green, why is the one pictured in the magazine article black?
