NEW CAR!!! any ideas?
Hey,
Just pickin up my new car on fri. its a 1987 gxl with 75k on the odometer. Ive had a legend and a turbo supra, and im into working on my cars, but i dont know much about the rotary. first of all, can a turbo be installed eaisily? or would it be cheaper to buy a turbo engine and drop it in?
also, what are some good bolt ons and low cost upgrades to start out? i need some good ideas to drop a few hundo into this baby

congrats on the buy, welcome to the forum and rx7s.. t2 engine is way cheaper than a turbo upgrade. ~3k for turbo plus supporting mods. t2 engine ~1k.....a lot of supporting mods as well, still way cheaper....

dude if its your first rotary, id stick with the n/a for a few months at least, rotarys are a different animal and na's will take a crap load more abuse than a t2, so i say sick with the na for 3-4 months then look into a turbo, it'll give you time to learn the ins and outs of these beasts.
