i found a turbo 2 near me that has a blown engine. Could i cheaply put a different motor in and make it into a daily driver/drifter? what motor would be best?

 

ABSOULETLEY NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! CHEAP IS NO IN THE RX7 DICTIONARY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FOOOOOOLLLLL

 

ok could someone give me a ballpark estimate?

 

How much is the body selling for? If its cheap (Uh, $500 or less?) I might want it. If it has full interior, that is. Cuz you can get a J-Spec 20B for like $4k

 

then the installation of the 20b will run you upwards of 10,000$ +

You can get 13b Turbos rebuilt for around 1700$ canadian

 

i heard about some people putting a small block ford or chevy

 

o god if your new and dont know anything about Rx7's dont try to do a conversion.... just buy a MR2 or an 86 dont ruin an Rx7 like that learn about the car and if you happen to put a chevy or ford motor in it you cant drift with it youll have more weight in the front than in the back and get understeer if im correct.....

You should put a go cart engine in it.

 

if its just an engine problem, you can rebuild it yourself for 300-600, buy a used motor for like 900ish, or have a motor built for you which could range from 1000+

 

depending where u are
here in Ontario I picked up a turboII motor for 850cdn
all u got to do is drop it in
if u are not tool handy there should be someone around u that could help ( let me know where u are)
or take it to a mechanic, it shouldnt be more than 400cdn for install
