Syclones and Typhoons would generally run mid-high 14s I believe. 0-60 would be in the LOW 4s though....it's just that the AWD and pisspoor aerodynamics slowed them down as speed went up...
Very cool trucks though!

I have seen most cyclones go 14.1 to 13.8 @ 95-98 mph. It varied from one to another. A guy I know was running 14.1@96. I raced him in my 3rd gen and he killed me off the line by 2 cars. Half way through I passed him and finished with 4 car lengths between us. Yep, the ole RX7 had him on the top end. His 60' were consistant 1.8's which were very good. Mine were 2.2 at best.
I recently bought a 93 RX-7. The good thing was that it was cheap and the bad...it was auto! I've been looking for shops that can swap a manual in for me, I am incapable of doing the job myself (lazy...and even if I wasn't, no tools!) and am willing to pay any price within it's reason. Can anyone tell me any shops that can do this and do a freaggin good job at it?
Also, in the process of asking around for a shop I was told that it was "illegal" to do this swap...is that true?! And if so, what the F**K for?!?!
