Yesterday, I was so happy that I finally received my jspec 13BT engine and tranny. I was happy to see that 13BT, and finally I had the engine that I wanted since I got my 91 NA Coupe. I was so happy.......then I figured out I dont some stuff I need to complete my NA-TII conversion. I jus bought a stock intercooler, stock intake, stock MAS, Koyo Radiator, and NipponDenso Competition Fuelpump. I bought the performance fuel pump and Radiator cuzz I would be spendin almost the same amount on the stock parts. I still need the whole stock exhaust system, and I need the stock to pass emissions here in California. I also need to get the LSD rear end to run my TII Tranny. I dont want to use my NA tranny with upgrade clutch, cuzz I want the TII tranny and LSD. and I got the TII tranny already so it'd be a waste of money. Man, I still gotta pay the mechanic $500 for the swap. Man its gonna be like $4500 for everything plus labor. Man, I jus can't wait to drive my 7 again and especially wit the turbo i been dreamin about since i was 15. I am 19 btw. My car has been dead since April and I reminisce a lot about my 7 over this summer. I hope this is all worth it. But Im pretty sure it will be worth it.

 

good luck with everything man.

I really hope your engine has good compression numbers and is up to spec. unless you're planning on rebuilding it then it's not a huge deal either way.

going turbo from n/a is quite the project. who's doing your work? and 500 bucks is sure a hell of a del. i wish i had a good rotary mechanic around this area that would do all the work for me for 500. but then i'm a learn it myself type of guy.

good luck with everything bro.

yea man good luck with your swap i was going to do that swap to my 91 n/a to but then i just bought 2 rx7 t2's both rolling chassis so im going to just put the 13bt engine i got for my swap in there yea i wish i could find a rotary mechanic around my area in PA to help me since i dont know to much yet about rx7's but hope everything go's well with your swap and you will be glad to drive it again with a turbo in it this time

 

Have fun with the swap. Turbo power is addictive. Make me an offer on the LSD rear end. I have a spare set and am in your area.

 

if you pull the tranny you can use the N/A driveline until you have more $$$

 

Kingof1337, I thought you could use the TII transmission and keep the rest of the drivetrain on the NA side from what Ive been reading here...?

Am I wrong?

 

No, you'll need the rear end, halfshafts, and driveshaft.

 

is the TII tranny bigger or something?

 

Man the Drivetrain parts I need are becoming a pain in da azz. i still need the LSD rear end. Dats the LSD differential, Halfshafts, and driveshaft.

 

Do you have the whole rear end? The differential, halfshafts, and driveshaft? If so, willing to pay $500 shipped.

 

You're in Fresno, CA right? Just wanted to make sure.

And yes, I have a driveshaft and halfshafts too.

 

Not sure, I haven't lined it up to an NA tranny before. But its beefier and can handle the torque of a TII engine. The tranny case is also ribbed.

 

Yes, I am in Fresno, Cali. What's your paypal email address? I can send you the money right now. Where are you at? Maybe I can pick it up or maybe you an deliver it. Give me your number, maybe talking on the phone will be easier. Let me know what and how you want to do it. You can call me at 559-292-3562.

 

Sent you a PM already but I'll give you a call tonight if you're still interested.
