Are the 89-91 RX-7's the same as the 93-95?
I am thinking about buying a 89-91 FC but I know ill have to replace the engine once I get it. So are the 89-91's the same as the 93-95's?

if you mean the same engine then no? sort of the same. the 93-95 is alot diff, like rotor housings, rotors, external diffs. the 89-91' fc motor is called 13bt and the 93-95's are called 13b-rew. fc motor is 200hp@flywheel, fd motor is 270? around.
but as far as differences between 87-88 and 89-91 the 89-91 is more similiar to the fd's if you had to compare all 3.
i don't really know exact diffs though, hopefully other people will chime in here

93-95 FD engine 255hp
engine is quite different than fc as said above...lighter rotors and etc...
main difference is twin turbo for FD, if u dont know about that
FC 13BT is single turbo ,has 200hp for 89-91 model
forgot the numbers for NA...
around 160-170hp

knowledge junkie
Only reason to upgrade to a 3rd gen setup in a 2nd gen is for the twin turbo setup. This basically gives you more low end torque and less turbo lag.
Personally I wouldn't do it as the cost and effort could be better applied pushing 300hp in your 2nd gen turbo.
