too much of a pain in the *** to put a 3rd gen engine into an FC. Almost not worth it at all. check out www.fc3spro.com and see what Ted says about it.

I'd also do a search here on the forum for 13BRE engine swaps. Those came out of the cosmos in Japan and are much easier to fit into the FC.

If you consider cheap to be $10,000, then yes, it is cheap.

Yo Discharged, I've got a great idea... Study the post above mine for about 5 minutes and let it sink in.

Seriously though, have you considered selling your N/A Rx7 and simply buying a stock turbo Rx7?

If this is your first experience with rotaries, forget about doing any major upgrades until you are completely familiar with how the car works, not just the engine.

Hey, Reted... where do you find the pics of all of those Asian chicks???






****, I am getting of task... a JC 13BREW swap is a lot cheaper and easier w/ similar gains as a regular 13BREW.
