I am looking for an 89-91 FC T2 but they are quite hard to come by in my area. I found a few but they are well over 100k. I read somewhere to be weary of these. Anyway, I was thinking of GTU and dropping in a 13BT. Im pretty sure it can be done, but theres only the cost factor to consider. I have at most 6-7k to spend on the car and the motor, but Id rather start out with a reliable ride. I would like more detail on 13BTs in GTU, and what are the differences between GTU,GXL, and T2.

 

cool your in portland too. want to trade cars?

 

hah.. if you dont mind an impotent stock 89 ka 240

 

is it a coupe or hatchback? im too broke anyways. i did find a couple potential sr20det hosts though

 

You know, I just poked around in the ForSale sections in this forum, and there were a bunch of cars in the Bay Area - at least ONE 89-91 Turbo II that was forsale.&nbsp Is that too far?

yea.. quite.. well.. atleast only some 650 miles or so..last time i drove there.. and yea.. my 240 is hb.. i was planning on getting an sr but the swap is kind of a bitch.. i would do it myself but i dont have the equipment.. plus dropping in an sr on the 89-90 is more of a bitch

 

if you don't have an rx7 and you want a turbo one, BUY A TURBO ONE!!! it will be way cheaper then trying to make a non turbo into a turbo, not to mention it will run...

 

well how are the 100k T2s? They should still run decently right? How much does a rebuild go for?

 

every car is different. I have around 100k miles on mine and it runs perfect. but I'm sure lots don't. depends what happened durring those 100k....
