Need Help With a Second Gen!!!!!!!!
I am in the middle of trying to pick which project car I would like to start. A nissan 240 with a RB-20 or 25 swap. Or a 2nd gen RX-7. This is where I am stuck. I can find plenty of sites on where to buy motors for the 240 and have a lot of questions answered. But with the 7 the information is hard to find. First I want a turbo 7 so. I believe from what i read it is a pain to do a t2 swap to a n/a 7. If so I have to buy a t2 in good condition or a t2 in need or a motor. Where can I find motors to buy for a ts or any 7?

Also a 240sx would be cheaper to build .

theres not more to be done, its just that there is more to be understood......an RX-7 in good condition is in my opinion is way more reliable than a crappy piston engine, and this is coming from a guy who owned a 89 turbo supra, 91 mr2, 88 mr2, 1g and 2g eclipse.......my past two RX-7s and the two i have now never give me any major probs.......if you are your own mechanic go with a TII hands down, they're light, powerful, and can handle boost up the a hole, and this way you already have a turbo and dont have to spend money on a pain in the butt engine swap.

i'm with the rest of these guys. if you don't mind getting your hands a bit dirty now and again, this is an awsome car. i'll never go back to any other sports car.
