NY picked up my 1st FD
 
hey my name is Brooks and i just bought a 93 rx7, it has 86k on it and i am very excited to build it. the car came from NC with a 2jz "swapped" into it. i use that term very lossly bc it was very sketchy. But i am a bit of a fabricator myself so i am in the process of getting it all in order. anyways i am very excited to be a owner and in the club.

Welcome, Brooks!

Good luck sorting out the swap. I saw your other thread and it looks like you are well on your way.

Nice a 2jz swap, best of both worlds, looks of the seven with the power of a 2jz

the car had a rough 2013, i got if running and had some bad luck with a tuner and needless to say i had to take out a blown motor and stuff a Brand New 2J from Toyota. i did paint the bay and the car looks awesome now. i will try to get pics up ASAP.

New wheels

Li Ls4 02-04-14 10:26 PM

very nice work so far the car is coming along nicely. do you know how the motor was put in? via the kit thats, just fabbed up motor mounts with a modded hood or all custom to have it sitting as low as possible? im looking to put my gte/r154 from my sc300 in a fd

2jz93fd 02-06-14 05:01 PM

I made the swap kit. I did lower the rack about a inch but with a bump steer kit it's right back to we're it needs to be. I'm looking to put a v160 in next winter and would sell all the swap stuff+drive shaft if you would be interested.

AntonV 02-14-14 03:09 AM

Looks nice man!

2jz93fd 02-15-14 08:31 AM

Harness round 2, I just ordered my second harness from Tweaked performance. I am very excited to get it witch should be next week. They were really nice to work with and turn around time was no time. I'll post pics when I receive it. My first harness was from chase bays and although it looked nice it was far from correct. I then sent the car to a preferred proEFI shop in NJ to have them try and figure it out but that didn't go very well. Needles to say I would not recommend chase bays. There harness cost me all of last session and I have over 2grand invested in it with purchase price and shop attempts ate correcting it.
