How much of a pain would...

How much of a pain would 2JZ-GTE Supra swap be on a 93 RX7? I read it in the Turbo mag that someone did it but I do need a quick reply please because I have to have my mind made up what kind of car to get by tomorrow. When replying include how much you " think " it would cost to do something like this and if you think it'll be worth it. Thanks in advance Trey

For the money, no, I don't think it's worth it. The balance of the car is thrown off, and a tuned 13B rew can make just as much necessary power, and reliably too, if your willing to invest the money (if your thinking about a 2JZ-GTE swap, you must have money). I'd say stay with the 13B and tune it, or if you've got the cash to burn do a 20B 3-rotor swap before a 2JZ-GTE. Y'know...keeping it rotary. It's the soul of the 7 after all.

You know God created three great things on this earth. First there was the Rotary Engine. Then came the RX-7. And then finally he made a search button, so that instead of posting here with this question you could type your question into the search feature and recieve an answer in considerablly less time than waiting for us to answer. Also if you had used the search button and not asked this question you wouldn't have gotten flamed like I am sure is coming soon. Please use the Search button. Please.

So far it seems that everyone whose registered in 2003 has asked a "can engine x fit into an FD?"~

Guess I better keep the tradition alive, eh? =p

Hmm, can a Civic Hybrid engine mount into my FD? Cuz ah... I like the look but I am all bout fuel economy yo~ ^_^ What 1/4 mile times should I expect with this swap cuz this friend I got wants to race me and he has NOS!

/sarcasm off

Use search, it works. We need a thread "Motor Swap of the Day" where these repetitive questions can be posted.

Peaces~
