turbo/NA swap (from turbo..TO na)
ok,so i got a t2 with nothing besides a d-shaft and rear end..i BRIEFLY searched..but what specificly do i have to do to get the s5 NA into the s5 T2 body...does eveything hook up?...can u use the same rear end,is thare any diffrences that i should know
the gtu is complete
the t2 has the engine/tranny missing...but all the harness's still remain
anyone show me a link or something?
and if anyone wants to know,the t2 body has zero rust,and my na is looking like swiss cheese with 60k on a reman engine

The driveshaft will not work on an n/a trans, you can get a workaround one from mazdatrix. Other then that it should be pretty boltin though you may want to use a n/a ECU.
I don't know how you would want to or if you need to rewire the harness for the n/a ecu.
You could always run a TII motor n/a and not deal with all of this.

run the N/A engine with a TII Flywheel,clutch,starter,slave. Etc..the Engine is N/A..the Rest from the Flywheel back is TII..that is it..

^ he doesn't have the TII trans...
I just noticed you have a complete n/a donor car. I would swap the whole drivetrain from the n/a. (You can swap rear subframes really easy)
Then when you have the time you can source a TII motor and trans and re-install the TII drivetrain. Stock TII never hit over 200hp so you don't have to worry about that.

its estimated HP..its more of a honesty thing,if your noticably faster...then they dyno you(like 10 sec faster)
and farberio do i need to swap subframes?..the one i have is rusted pretty bad,the rest is good,id just rather stay away from most of the crap from the orignal body..things hittin the scrapper once im done

You don't have to swap the subframes, it would just make it a bit easier.
Drop both subframes, then swap the n/a diff and axles onto the TII subframe and reinstall.
The subframe is the exact same on all RX7's. (At least coupes, and probably verts).
And a stock rebuild s5 tii should have an estimated 180 at the fly.

My insurance rates were exactly the same for my 88 NA, 88 TII, and 84 NA RX-7 coupes with State Farm and USAA. If you are paying extra for the TII, then you should get a different insurance company. Only the convertible should have a higher premium.
