I am looking to do somthing to my transmisson this winter. Either rebuild it, replace it, or swap it. I have a 1990 FC N/A manuel tranny. Can I hook up a Turbo tranny to it? and if so which one would work the best? Has anyone rebuild there trannys and if so where can i find the parts (upgraded). -Jeremy

 

Turbo tranny would also require the turbo starter, flywheel, clutch, and either a cutom driveshaft, or the TII driveshaft, rear-end, and halfshafts.

I recommend rebuilding your own if you are up to it; it far beats out any used replacement tranny. No one makes any upgraded parts besides a clutch upgrade. Mazda is your best bet for the internal seals and synchros. Budget $500 or so.

 

awsome thanks

 

anyone else have any suggestions?

 

Just did this. I think that it's a great way to go, except for what the guy above said. Mazdatrix sells a custom TII trans to N/A rear end drive shaft for ~$300 and they have the flywheel (Racing Beat steel I went with) and clutch that you need. Also, you can save yourself some headaches (read: Save MONEY) by just getting a clutch disk that has the spline setup that you need for the TII trans and the diameter for the N/A flywheel and PP.

I would say if you're going to go with the stronger TII tranny, just go ahead and switch out the rest of the rear end while you're down there.

 

get the rebuild kit for your trans for under 200 bucks at rx7world.com, i dont work for them or anything, i found this a while back... it was a hard find.
