If you barly have the funds now you wont be able to manage this car.. sorry not trying to rag on you.. also a 4 rotor is just and will always be a dream to 99% of the 7 club.. you would have to have thousands of dollars to get that done.. even a 3 rotor.. not many people have even 3 rotors. if you do have the funds to keep a normal 13b make sure you have the money for a rebuild and big bills for repairs if needed.. and i mean big

Not a dream to me, what is it with bigger is better.

First, this is covered in the FAQ:
https://www.rx7club.com/3rd-generation-specific-1993-2002-16/faq-3rd-gen-other-useful-links-68640/

Second, you'll have to call around to find out. I'll guess that there are only a handful of these in the world. If you don't have the funds to purchase one now you won't have the funds to put a 4 rotor in when you finally get the car.

i have the funds for the car...ive had to 7's for awhile just never got crazy with them. i had an 87 and an 86 both ran perfectly and when problems came up they were dealt with in a timely matter i know its more expensive to upkeep this car...but i had no idea on pricing for those kinda builds i just new turbo wasnt a big deal to me if i could push the power out of just the motor itself.not lookin for a daily driver.lookin for a fun car to drive...ive loved this car for years...track car mostly....theres only 2 people who work on rotoray's out here in vegas...so theres no way to really get info...thats why i wanted to ask you guys if youve heard of prices or shops that do this.

unless you have tons of money to burn up i would concentrate on just getting an FD first.

how old are you?

cockeyedcricket

theres two things that would be corrected in the entire paragraph.how bored are you???you actually took the time to find that picture,read my post and reply.come on im only asking a simple question and trying to find some direction. seriously, if you dont know what im talking about or you have no information to give then just leave it alone...how old are you???

dontlift

Only two, huh?

Here's an answer: the best estimate I've seen for a 3-rotor conversion is $30,000. You should probably double it for a 4-rotor, assuming you can even find someone to do it.

cockeyedcricket

that's all im looking for. an idea of how much it costs and anyshope who mifght be able to perform it. this wasn't a plan set in stone just a feeler because 've only seen video's of it and because i never got in depth of playing with the rotoary engine i wasn't sure what all goes into making something like this happen.thank you

cockeyedcricket

By the way, I had no idea I was speaking with english scholars.I'm sorry that i feel the need to space out ideas with different punctuation marks because I don't feel the need to waste space. If you really need wish for everything to be grammaticaly correct I will make sure I Pull out my dictionary,thesaurus as well as the english for dummies book. WIll that suffice??

I can't stand when people make their title to the topic "I have a question..." Please, give us an idea on what your "question" is about there, that's what it's used for. Most post have to do with questions.

Pm me if you want this work done. I can do it if you have the big $$$. I own a 3 rotor FD and it's not cheap.. If you don't have 30k for the car and upgrade don't even think about it.. I'm in Vegas also..

^No, PM me and I'll do the conversion work for you. Gonzz is no good at this!

Okay, so I'm just kidding. If you go my route, I'll show you how to blow about $70K on a 3 rotor conversion and take about 3 years doing it

Gonn, how's the ECU install going?

4 Rotor conversions cost an upward of 80k and that's just motor work. I would think you would need rear end work and other parts to be able to handle all that power properly. So yeah like everyone else said just focus on getting the car first then go from there.

its one of those...If you have to ask, you can't afford it questions.

CantGoStraight

Since you've seen the video, why don't you research it and see if you can find out who put it together, then find out what it cost to do it. If it's pure power you want and don't want to muck up the handling of the car then look into getting a roller and throw an LS-1 conversion. Putting a 4 rotor in this car would upset the balance unless you do a serious shift in the installation of the motor. I'd say you'll probably find zero examples of this conversion on this forum and all you'll get is an opinion (which you could have drawn on your own.)
