Mazda RX-7 FD3S in FH6 — Rotary Tuning & Drift Guide

Published: July 27, 2026 · Last updated: July 27, 2026 · 5 min read
TL;DR — Updated July 2026

The 1998 Mazda RX-7 FD3S is in FH6 (May 19, 2026 launch) — PI 706, $55,000 CR. The pinnacle of rotary engineering. The FD3S uses the sequential twin-turbo 13B-REW (a real-world spec carried into FH6).

The third-generation Mazda RX-7 (FD3S, 1992-2002) is the rotary-powered grand touring sports car that became a JDM icon. In Forza Horizon 6 (launched May 19, 2026) it's the highest-PI naturally aspirated rotary in the game. Its twin-turbo 13B-REW rotary engine, balanced chassis, and unmistakable styling make it a top-tier drift and touge weapon — provided you can keep the apex seals happy.
