(ENGINE) TII swap into GSL-SE
my friend has an 84 SE and wants to put a JSpec 13BT in it. we were wondering, aside from the engine, what will he need to make it a success? id search but its down. thanks

Get your ass on AIM and I'll tell you...

:rofl: :crackup:
|
i am not sure, but i would imagine that you would want the tranny too. and ofcourse the alternator, wiring harness, and either the tII ignition or some aftermarket one.

See my links below..

is the rx7 came with the 13b from the factory, you can swap with no problem the only problem will be is the wiring. si mo the same :D that my opinion:bigthumb:
|
eddie the engine might fit peachy-keen with the 1st-gen front cover and oil pan but you'll need to use the T2 transmission...

You could, just stock them like cordwood in the garage and plan to get good at changing them... :)

More info is available at these fine sites, brought to you by insane rotary fans all over. :) http://www.geocities.com/chris32472/ http://groups.yahoo.com/group/turbof...portRows&tbl=2 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/turbofb/ http://turbo1stgen.rx-7.org/ MODS:Could we make this a sticky and let the other turbo 1st gen guys pile information here? This thread seems to be coming up quite a lot lately... Thanks, |

Hey, at least we can all benefit from it, and help each other that much more :D . |

You need to aim higher. ;)

man...
maybe I should buy an SA22 |
BOOSTEDROTORS.. I did the swap with no problem it went in like a glove , My car is a 1984 GSL i have a 88 Turbo II J-SPEC engine in it from Corksport me and couple friends rebuilt and Streetported, chromed out the housings painted it gloss black had the whole engine bay painted gun metallic silver people love it everything pretty much goes in straight with the Turbo II tranny, just have to make a custom drive shaft and you better work on the rear end becouse i have another friend who did the 93 swap into a GSL-SE he broke the rear end it's alot of power but at the end people admire it when they see it, also good luck finding people who can re-wire it, i would just get the haltech also don't throw any 12A parts they are usefull.

Great Linkz.. ()utstanding!!!
br0.. great links..even though I have most of them..I think posting them was a great idea. I just notice how few turbocharged 1st gens there are out there. I've searched the internet for years but found only a handfull.
On a sidenote.. a friend of mines.. asked me to make him some clear tail lights for his 1st gen. If you guyz like.. I'll post the steps. The clear tail lights.. and a set of LED bulbs.. should give the back of the 1st genz a updated look. |
Anyone want a great attitude booster?! Go to Mazdaracing.com. If you go to the Videos section, there's a Carburated 12a 1st gen RX-7 beating the snot out of a Nova with a 302 and a brand-new mustang, with plenty of mods done to both!
I'm not endorsing street racing by showing these video's but it pretty damn cool. And the RX-7 kicks ass! You can see the horns from the carb sticking out of the hood. |
I recently dropped a Series 5 13B Turbo in my Series 2 and used:
