in need of advice on 2nd gen body kit and engine conversion... :)

First off, if u guys don't mind, i'd like to ask all of you if anyone knows where i can get this complete body kit at... im building a 87 Rx7 up for my girl, because she loves my 93 but don't want the same thing... she doesn't "like" the stock body lines of the 87 which i've already paid for but she does "LOVE" it with this particular body kit... if you guys could help me find the name or a link or lead to it i'd GREATLY appreciate it, so i can get this over with and back to my car... im also converting it over from GXL 13bt engine i belive it is, to the 93's twin turbo engine, so im looking for some mounting brackets im assuming, heres theh picture and if u don't get it to work theres going to be a link also... please help guys, i know u guys know alot more about this stuff than i do :P

Damn, looks like a B-Wave front bumper with R-magic side skirts and rear apron. Also, I think that's a Border wing. The wing you can get from www.corksport.com the side skirts and rear apron you can get from www.rxecret7.com and as for the B-Wave front bumper, good luck finding it.

i think the kit will be more than the engine since all of those parts are from japan. you're gonna end up paying an arm and a leg to get that kit shipped here. i hope you can work overtime or she's probably gonna have to wait. that kit is nice but it sure is gonna cost you. good luck!

thats the pro shop wave "super seven" body kit. Check out the website:
http://www.seikoh.co.jp/wave/bwave.htm

Getting these japanese body kits is tough and can be expensive. Also, about swapping in the 13b-rew, I've heard its expensive too. Its been done before, but do a search to find out the details.
