i need some info about whats needed to put a 3rd gen motor into a 2nd gen..every time i ask someone they always give me different answer..maybe ya'll can help

 

Why do you want to do that?

 

I have done only one,and will never do it again,the customer didn't have enough money to run a stand alone ecu,so we had to make adaptors for everything to run the stock t2 stuff.needless to say we lost our *** on that job.

 

Yes, it can be done
No, it's not easy
No, it's not cheap

 

go to the FAQs man.
my advice, make a TII that we can all be proud of.
u want an FD, go buy one, might as well with all the bread itll take to get a 13btt in an FC
good luck!

 

^^^^ need Rx7
Its funny that you say it that way and i look at your avatar
and picture billy mays voice repeating what you said hahaha
but in the real though, its gonna be a bit pricey so unless you have the cash and time i would say go with the turbo generation that fits your car.

 

honestly unless you have a 13b-REW sitting in your garage its not worth it..your much better off swapping in a 13b-RE cosmo motor, its a much better engine, its the strongest rotary engine out there and it has HUGE intake runners so porting the motor can produce huge horsepower numbers..plus you can get one for about $1500 from an importer, also the stock TII tranny will bolt right up to it then all you have to do is buy the engine mounts from Banzai racing and run a standalone and your set..13B-RE+big turbo+lots of fuel=easy 600+ WHP

 

Personally, given the amount of work involved, I would choose a higher-performance 13B-RE or 20B-REW, or save myself a LOT of trouble and just go with a well-built 13B or 13BT. However, here is your info:

to install a 13 rew in ur car you will need to fab some mounts( brackets) then you will need a standalone to make things easier with running the car. personally i don't think it's that hard. also i think the REW is a stronger engine than the RE. with the exception to the ports being bigger and intake manifold. the REW has bigger dowel pin areas on all REW, not all RE has that. that's just one. if you have the money to have someone do the job for you then go for it. i did mine.

 

why don't you just run a 91 13Bt, with a REW intake manifold and TB?

 

The LIM will not bolt up.

 

the rew lim and tb will fit, they have multiple threads on it

 

WOW I don't think that turbo is big enough. What a beautiful car!

 

i might as well go with the turbo ll motor and with all the extra money i would have spent putting in the 13b rew i could use that to build the turbo ll.....my goal is to hit atleast 400-450hp

 

thanks fellas for all ur help

 

i don't know yet, it made 567hp on 21 psi on e85. gonna go for 30 psi + and see what it does. oh 400-450hp there's no need to do that swap unless you have the money and just want to do that. that can be achieve with the right combination.

 

yeah man you can easily make 400 WHP on a bone stock internal 13BT motor..get a nice fuel system,stand alone and nice turbo setup and your set for 400-450 whp on a bone stock 13bt im doing it right now on my S5 13BT been running strong for 2 years now

 

what size turbo and how many pounds of boost are you running...1 guy told me 3mm seals is the way to go....then some other guy told me if i get 3mm seals the motor doesnt hold compression as well..
