Since there are already a few people on this topic i thought i would ask some questions........
I am looking for IRS for my mazda.......what year rx7 is best.......or what other IRS can be used........and what about the bolt pattern and length of the rear end... will it tuck under the mazda box or will the shafts need to be shortened?? I really dont no much about IRS so sorry for all the questions.....

my 87 rx7 irs narrow enuff to run a +39 offset, which is pretty standard.

bolt pattern is a 5x4.5 so your half way to the 5 lug swap.

the rx7 irs is nice and clean and simple. some others are pretty sloppy looking.
