Every JDM sticker collection has the same four cars on it. The RX-3 is the one that makes somebody stop and look twice, partly because it predates all of them and partly because most people cannot immediately name it.
It earned that. In 1971 an RX-3 took the Japanese Grand Prix touring car category off the Skyline GT-R and ended a 49-race winning streak — a rotary Mazda beating the Skyline of the day, an ancestor of the R34 found elsewhere on this site rather than the same car.
It is also the most detailed thing drawn for this site, which has consequences for the size you should buy.
Mazda RX-3 Stickers
Waterproof vinyl, kiss cut and removable, in matte, gloss or transparent. Only the transparent one skips the thin white border, taking a clear border instead.
Size matters more here than on any other car in the range. The grille bars, the four headlights, the chrome, the mirrors out on their stalks — at the small size a good deal of that closes up into a green shape. Medium is where the front end starts to read properly; large is where the chrome does.
Sizes:
- Small – 4 x 2.7 in or 10.2 x 6.9 cm
- Medium – 5.5 x 3.7 in or 14 x 9.5 cm
- Large – 8.5 x 5.8 in or 21.6 x 14.6 cm
- Extra Large – 14 x 9.5 in or 35.6 x 24.1 cm
Mazda RX-3 Magnets
Flexible vinyl at 20 mil, half a millimetre, die cut to the outline with a narrow white edge. The shadow that sits beneath the sticker and pin versions is absent here.
A magnet is where you will see this car most often. A fridge or a tool cabinet gets looked at from a few feet, several times a day — more attention than anything hanging on a wall ever receives. Take the large one; the detail earns it.
Sizes:
- Small – 2.8 x 1.9 in or 7 x 4.8 cm
- Medium – 3.7 x 2.5 in or 9.5 x 6.4 cm
- Large – 5.5 x 3.8 in or 14.1 x 9.5 cm
Mazda RX-3 Pins
Round, in UV and scratch resistant Mylar with the standard fitting on the back — and this is the one car in the range where the size is not really a choice. At 1.25 inches the front end becomes a green circle with a suggestion of headlights in it. At 2.25 it is recognisably an RX-3.
Sizes:
- Small – 1.25 in or 3.2 cm diameter
- Large – 2.25 in or 5.7 cm diameter

How ordering works
HartCar is one person with an interest in cars. As a permanent traveler it is difficult to maintain stock and ship orders because I am never in one place for too long. Therefore I use a third party print on demand service to create and ship each item. Your order will be securely processed on their website. This also makes it ideal if you would like something customised such as a different colour car, background or maybe a stripe or two. If this sounds like something you may be interested in, please get in touch.
