Hey guys, long time reader, first time poster. I've done a few searches to make sure that this hasn't been asked before because I would hate to be a fourm abuser. Something tells me that I've overlooked it though and I'm sure it has been posted.

To the question. I own an 88 GXL RX-7 and I'm lookin for a carbon fibre driveshaft. I think to myself that I've seen one on some website but I can no longer find it.

A second question, that I've searched for and found before but I'm looking for a response more closely related to my question... What is involved in a 13BT swap? Obviously engine and ECU, I've also found a tranny for a mere $300 meant to fit the 13BT but wouldn't the stock tranny due? Will there be any other changes I'll have to make? Any loss in drivablilty such as taking out my A/C or anything? I'm sure you guys have the just of my question. Thanks for the replies ahead of time.

NICE POST! Thanks! Very informational. If you don't mind me askin', where did you get your engine, ecu, intercooler, and boost sensor from for $600? I'd suspect EBay and if that's true, was it in dire need of the rebuild that you did for another 600?

turbo tranny is a bit stronger than the N/A
