Hi all!

Just saying hi. A buddy posted - over on the "kills" page about me eating a Ram Air T/A. So I thought I'd say hi.

I've had my '87 TII since '91 and have love every minute of it....

However, it's a little different now......

Before you flame me, remember 2/3's of my RX7's are still rotary powered.

 

lol.... 2 outta 3 ain't bad...

Actually, that looks like really nice work...

I do have some questions: (but don't interpret these as a flame, 'cause they aren't!)
1) the third gen, nice work, but how much is it gonna cost ? (approx)

2) (again on the 3rd gen) did you have to relocate the steering rack or did it fit properly? 'cause I know that when you put a 20B it needs to be relocated...

3) (guess what, this is about the 3rd gen too.. ) What kind of performance numbers are you expecting from it when finished?
(Just trying to compare the cost of the swap to similar mods on the original engine... (NOT a flame! ))

But that looks like damn nice work on all the cars.. the (ex)TII looks great...

 

I dunno, I think the car looks pretty cool. Definately a wierd thing hearing a V8 rumble from a 7. I can imagine its quite fast.

On top of the car, add about $6,000 - $9,000 depending on your abilities.

The whole center section of the front sub-frame is new. Yes, the rack is relocated, but only slightly lower, that's all. An alignment, and it's all good.

Performance #'s. well, it should be in the high 11's, low 12's pretty easily. Others running totally stock engines are in the 12.7x's, and this one is not stock.

 

Dude the red one looks like the motor actually belongs there. nice car man. I wonder if mazda ever thought that someone was gonna rip the 1.3 liter engine out and put a 5.7 in.

 

Cool cool... (by stock motor I meant the 13B-rew... but eh, its all good )

Keep up the good (damn clean) work man!
