Smile how nice is this!

upon talking to a manager at my work, he tells me that his brother has two turbo II's sitting in front of his house that he doesnt want. one of which is a 10th anniversary edition......guess how much i paid for them...........0$ he just wanted to get rid of them, the motors are of course shot, but i dont care, 2 rx7's in good shape for free will do it for me....

ps.... can i run a reg n/a motor with a turbo setup form one of these cars, and how much stuff from the t II do i have to pirate.........

no no no, im talking about taking the turbo setup and putting it ito my daily driver na because i already have alot of work done to it, and i dont want to swap everything out because the boday is in really good shape.......the n/a d.d. is an 86 for whoever asked......so what im actually asking is how hard is it to put a turbo setup onto a remanufactured n/a motor......

it'll probably be more work than to just put all ur stuff on the TII. Besides..driving around a TII WITH the VIN # of a TII is so much sicker than driving around a conversion like im gonna have to do

You'll need some sort of fuel control, and well fuel because the N/A will not supply enough. Also The computer and the wiring harness if you're going that route or an AFC. Or better yet a Haltech. Dude, fix up the 10 AE. If the body is in good shape, it will retain it's value far greater than your 86. Take your time. In the long run you won't regret it.

Keep the 10th Anniversary white...please!!! If you want a black TII car, rebuild the engine in the other TII and paint it black.

There's only so many 10th anniversary's running around anymore and it's so cool when you see a nice one running around.
