Car Life: The Midnight 7 - Mazda RX7 - SingularEntity.com

A bash of metal, fiberglass and a whole lot of brap - this is a highlight of all things RX-7. A purpose built car taken from the track and tamed for the streets, this iconic engine soundtrack can be heard distinctly.
The story one of the earliest JDM imports into North America unfolds as Matt takes us through his journey of owning an ex-Stillway/RE-Amemiya built RX-7. From numerous stories - From winning the car auction to rebuilding his first 13B motor his story is one unique to RX-7 ownership. He brings some personal flavour into his build through the choice in body colour and aero additions.
One word to describe Matt is: Eccentric. His energy and excitement of owning his RX-7 was apparent through our time spending this video. Through the good and the bad of the RX-7 owner's experience there will always be a love for his car. This is his car life story.
Special thanks to Matt for the additional footage

[@Kikolad]

I am proud this man actually takes the car to the track instead of turning it into another stanced FD.

[@JustKyzuuh]

I agree. Stance looks cool, but no functionality.

[@JustKyzuuh]

+kcdnhntr slammed is stance..... excessive camber, being so low you can barely get over things, that's all stance, and it's not very functional. There may be a such thing as "functional stance" with minimal camber and slightly lowered, but the object of stance is never function.

[@jquanisgone]

widespread use of stance is usually directed to slammed cars. technically, stance is the fitment of the wheels, thus it being called "square stance" and "staggered stance." square stance is when you're running the same size wheel on all sides and staggered is the opposite.

[@mracidman2536]

@@JustKyzuuh lol you sound dumb af lowering camber all that has advantages learn how gravity effects cars and such

[@JustKyzuuh]

@@mracidman2536 I'm afraid you are the dumb one here. A very slight camber has benefits for certain situations. No form of driving requires more than a few degrees. Especially cruising around on the streets in your Honda. Stance is not functional, so don't act like it is.

[@MRMELLON99105]

One of the dislikes is the dude who lost the auction.

[@dogcrick]

Rx-7 owner here. Long live the Rotary!

[@SahlEbrahim]

EXTREME SCALE PERFORMANCE RC please tell me is it very expensive to keep the rx7?

[@therealpodge]

Yeah buddy! Another fd owner here! 610bhp and braps like crazy! Rotors forever!!

[@MrDreamer60]

Sahl Ebrahim yes it is. I own one. If its just been rebuilt or its very low mileage (25k or less) you might be ok. Fuel consumption is very high

[@SahlEbrahim]

MrDreamer60 also about the Engine i heard its not that reliable

[@MrDreamer60]

Sahl Ebrahim i ve owned 2 fds. Both I service every 6 months and check oil every 4 fill ups. And regardless of how well maintained they ve been I ve found reliability a lottery. Sometimes you can gl a year with zero issues. Other times it can break down every 4 uses due to minor things like hoses coming off. Generally the lower the mileage (25k miles or less) or more recent the rebuild the better off you ll be.

[@mcterb7142]

The sound of this rx7 is just awesome :-O Beautiful bodykit as well!

[@Singularentity]

+Mc Terb brap brap brap brap

[@michaelliu6727]

May I ask which company do u use to import the rx7, cuz I want to import one for myself in Vancouver too

[@DaBigMan133420]

Midnight purple is such an awesome colour. Its low key but under the right conditions it just pops! That's the reason why my S14 is also that colour :)

[@Jimmy_Wei]

you definitely deserve more subscribers. keep going mate!

[@Singularentity]

+Chen Wei Thanks! We try our best :)

[@TJ2Thelimit]

agree

[@MyRotaryLife]

Matts mindset is absolutely spot on. He is the absolute true definition of a rotary enthusiast. He just gets it. You bleed, sweat, swear and cry for these cars but in that moment you are behind the wheel it doesn't matter any more. It's your rx7 and it's a living extension of you. Our cars and mindsets are literally identical.

[@ArtOfTheCarbine]

You guys NEED to make more videos. I discovered this channel yesterday, and I was so bummed to find only a few vids. The quality of your videos so awesome. I loved the intro to the Subie video, that was so rad and inspiring. More please!

[@saviorstyles9148]

Love the car and owner! I can really appreciate his experience and you guys need more subs!

[@TitoHR]

Motivation to finish my rx7 lol... Ty

[@Singularentity]

+Tito R We all need that inspiration

[@headcheese3]

+Tito R Same, what are you doing with yours?

[@madmaxington]

SE guys, great work. The story, sound and film come together very well in this. Please keep up with this quality product you are putting out, your passion shows.

[@PerpetualWhiteBelt]

Great video. Keep them coming! The FD'S are an amazing machine! Always have been, always will be. Yours is a perfect example of what they are. It's great to see that you actually use it for what it's for and that it's not just for car shows. Great job!

[@PhannyMusic]

i love the part he said he wanted less attention LOLOLOL

[@jimmyboy92891]

from a rotary owner. respect bro.i have an fc and she's a beauty but that fd is a show stopper

[@NoobRF]

I know these videos probably take a long time to make, but i still wish you guys were more consistent with the videos, keep it up!

[@oscarAmendoza]

Awesome video and awesome car/owner combo. You can tell he really cares for his car. Love seeing these videos. No matter the make or model, you can tell these people really have a passion for their rides.

[@sheldonjones4441]

glad to see you guys back

[@nicksargeant5728]

Excelnt video on owning an RX7 FD on my second lump and at 540bhp at the wheels what can I say. My friend has a Lambo and he spends 3Gs on a gear box rebuild every other service, so i know the cost of the power i get is cheap. Well done and keep it up!

[@Genome69420]

that kit is literally the fucking dream man. good for this dude. looks like he really enjoys it!

[@arllanignacio3189]

i love the story of each car style keep up the good work guys !!!!

[@Gricebros]

You guys are doing some awesome work!! Keep it up, we are loving the videos

[@inkno701]

The car looks straight out of Need for Speed.

[@clayton8or]

But better

[@n3er0o]

Your videos are so inspiring!

[@aaronjasper6628]

I can tell you have a real passion for your subject matter. I've been hooked since the Integra Type R video. Keep up the great work.

[@jfleezy]

[@EmilRoligheten]

This vid makes me wanna take my fd for a ride, but it is still a project. Top inspirational vid

[@tastesgood111]

Keep em coming. Loving this channel!! Great to see the Vancouver car culture is alive and well.

[@MistrMcGill]

Epic FD. Excellent editing as well, take care!

[@abhrajitray951]

the video and the car are beautiful. Also, the music is so good. Gives me "in the face of evil" vibes.

[@strizi83]

Awesome Video and Rx-7. We can see that the Owner just love his Rx 7.

[@dporrasxtremeLS3]

This generation RX7 is the Most Beautiful car in the Whole World!!!!!!!!!!! Great well done Video! Excellent speaking abilities.

[@faustoguerrero384]

[@abunaiN1]

[@jstsmslovenc92]

[@kingkobetha8th]

I noticed takeda enterprises decals all over, I have pictures of this car when it was yellow along side takedas r32 which I now own

[@Verziq]

This has been my dream car for so long. It's perfect.

[@elwynll]

[@donthompson9862]

i sold mine.dumb but like a fine wine u sound like u really appreciate this stunning car.better looking than a ferrari or porche or lambo man very well made video.nice thanx for sharing.

[@SilentDrifterGT]

I'm glad I didn't go to bed just yet!

[@chillrasta12]

This channel needs to have more views. Quality work.

[@diegotobalina]

This deserves way more attention, you sir make a great job!

[@saitousan15]

Beautiful car and it's being driven like it should.

[@Froseization]

Insane car, pretty nice video and I like the owner too !

[@myong9]

I feel the same way about my stupid Mazda. Damn thing is so finicky. Something is always breaking, but 13 years later I still have it even after wanting to sell it so many times. All the quirks just give it character and is what makes you love the car so much.

[@genkifd]

awesome man inspires me not to sell my FD. as i still love driving the car after 16 years of ownership but now i just have no time. minor electronic issues hamper my enthusiasm about my car. worst of all the lack of rotary mechanics near my area.

[@TheMegaawsomedude14]

The sound quality in all the videos is on point.

[@spartan876]

this channel is insane. props!

[@simonl8284]

Awesome video, your best one yet!

[@rubenswagger1999]

Man I love this channel. Y'all deserve a lot more subscribers and we wanna see more videos but your videos are great!

[@robertarispe3586]

dude your rx7 it's so beautiful am serious it's gorgeous

[@alexisjordanschreiner1471]

I understand the love for the rotary, and wanting to keep it original, but damn... 4 engines!!

[@VWayyyyyyyy]

I was curious on whether he would say the time between each motor that he went through...

[@Bittertokken]

Just found this channel, instant sub!

[@MarkCalica]

Great videos, keep em coming...

[@wills.junks7]

That is one of the Best RX7's i have seen yet in Japan! 1 sub

[@playback1926]

Are you going to update soon? Quality is mesmerizing.

[@ThePrudence23]

this the way i feel about my 2005 Subaru STi just love it and its all stock still

[@mzondi1970]

what a beauty

[@iillektrikk]

Check out how bad the rotor looks @ 5:32. The apex seal groove looks chipped and rotor side has severe scuffing. If this engine is being build with rotors in that condition, its no wonder you are going through many engines.

[@van240]

saw this car in real life when Matt decided to put it up for sale... very pretty and puts hard... idk where it is now, would love to find out who's the lucky buyer.

[@butt5810]

Such a sick video!!

[@Wesley_C]

Very nice RX7 FD tuner

[@Service00]

Great video!! More

[@Apexracingbr]

guys rock on videos maker, comgrats

[@pchwang]

1:51 "I hopped in... moved it a couple feet, right parked it, and at that point I think I told myself that I wanted a RX-7... oh and I also flooded the engine." "We're gonna edit that last bit out." "Oh ok."

[@jamesfowlkes5251]

and you assume this how?

[@21gunsalute10]

tastefully done

[@blindfoldedx]

[@erichuang953]

Hope to see ur car! I am in Van too

[@VWayyyyyyyy]

Good upload and sexy track oriented FD. Way to take advantage of you're car's potential other than riding slow with negative camber....

[@Exekutioncro]

Damn I wasnt that impressed by a car dor a very long time.Im not sure what it is but the appearance of it is just epic. The wing however is way too big lol

[@BZmusicvids]

great video, but some of the night shots were way too dark and the post processing made was a bit too much

[@dlc85007]

Gone threw 3 engines in the car! Damn where you getting the ca$h from?

[@yungaht1429]

That's what I wanna know too
