sorry to sound like a jerk, but this subject has been discussed a ton of times.

First off, the transmission is seperate from the differential on the rx7.

Second, I'm a little lazy right now so I'm going to have to tell you to search. Maybe search turbo swap or t2 rear end or something.

You can just get a driveshaft from Mazdatrix to connect the TII transmission to the NA diff. There, done.
