Got a lot of $$$? It's pretty expensive to do the conversion, but you could save some if you plan on doing all the labor yourself. 20B RX-7's are hard to come by though, but there was one on ebay a little while back. Looked a little sketchy because it was located in Puerto Rico or Cuba, can't remember.

Sorry, I know I'm not experienced with RX-7's, but I had looked into what it would take to do a 20B conversion and saw that total costs were over $40k. I wasn't sure how much money you had or even if you knew how costly it was.

If you're a DIY'er probably around 10k check the FAQ.

I think we're down to a weekly basis on these threads.

If you were/are truly that "interested" you would take the time out to do your own search. Not just wait for others to provide you with responses that have been answered 100's of times before. AND you're not gonna get anywhere with that attitude, retard

I don't know about conversion, etc. but you can get the motor itself from www.osakajdmmotors.com for $4K+ shipping. That's as far as I know I can take you, lol.

I would probably go through Japan2LA, since he's done a lot of business here and elsewhere with RX-7 people and has a lot of positive feedback.

there was never a manual trans 20B powered car made by Mazda for the public. If you get a 20B and put it in a manual car it will bolt to your tranny though.
