Some questions about interchanging parts
OK so heres the deal, I have a 1984 Rx7. I am taking a 12a out of a Rx2 to putting it in the rx7. The rx2 has a racing beat exhaust system, will this system fit the rx7? I dont see an rx2 system listed on there site so Im thinking it might be the full rx7 unit.
I also have an aluminum flywheel from a 1991 n/a rx7. Im pretty sure the flywheel itself will fit on the 12a but how can i be sure what year the 12a is so i can buy the appropriate rear counterweight? The owner told me the engine is from a RX7 but he wasnt sure which year.
Thanks in advance.

the RB exhaust should be swappable to any other 12a, the SA's have a different mounting flange I think, but the rest are interchangeable. Someone more knowledgeable will have to address the flywheel issue, I think it would "go on" the motor, but not sure if you could "balance it". The 13b assembly is a different weight etc. I believe. Better to get an answer from someone else on this though.
the system was probably custom made for the rx2. u'll probably have to add a section of pipe to lengthen it for the rx7. or maybe even have to shorten it. seriously doubt it'll be an exact fit.
