As some of you might have seen, a while back I posted
about doing the TII conversion on my GTUs
(https://www.rx7club.com/forum/showth...&highlight=TII
). At that point I had bought the engine,
transmission, wiring, and about 80% of the parts I
needed to do the conversion. I even bought a
performance part, an old school HKS FMIC!

I pulled the motor apart and found that one rotor
housing was bad and the rear iron side housing was
bad. So I picked up a cheap S5 J-Spec motor that had
a blown front rotor (see pics below to see what
happens when you over boost a rotary ). The only
bad parts on the 2nd motor to my surprise were the
rotor and the rotor housing. Every thing else is fine
(any one want a good condition S5 TII rotor its up for
sale?). Now I have all the engine parts I need to do
the rebuild.

I pulled the motor out of my GTUs this weekend and
took a couple of pictures. I took a goofy JDM pose
with my new turbo as well hehe. Hope you like it.

Want to know what a rotary looks like after it over boosts (from the bad J-Spec motor):

nice work, sir.

JIC FLT-A2's

 

So when is RarestRX pulling his motor?

 

Why? He has super low miles.

 

That was funny. Kevin going to the darkside. That will be the end of all NA's. lol. If that's done **** my GTUs value will go thru the roof. hehe.

 

illustration of coilovers. If you're interested let me know. I got two sets left. NExt shipment in a month or so.




Special club deals apply while supplies last. lol.

 

I am glad my post turned into an advertisement.

 

Sup

 

That's the most damaged rotor I've personally seen.

 

You know what’s funny I bought the motor for super cheap because I knew the front rotor was bad. All I needed was a rotor housing and the rear iron. When I pulled it apart that front rotor and rotor housing were just thrashed but all the side irons were fine. They pass visual, step wear, and flatness tests!!! I was total amazed.

 

how much?
