Time for the swap
 

Hey guys well I'm finally getting ready for my engine swap. Here is a little back story. I got the 91 rx7 n/a from a girl off Craigslist. She really had no idea what she had but her friend basically sold the car for her. Telling me the car was in good condition and that he had rebuilt the engine and mainly serviced the car. (Yea right) while I was looking for a project car I also didn't want a bottomless money hole. But the car started up fine. The body was in terrible shape and so was the body. The throttle was idling really low and the throttle was being held with a piece of metal and a screw and a rats nest of what looked like housing wires, But I got her for 1300 which I wasn't going to argue about in fear of offending her on low balling her. After saving up for awhile and being a slave at my job at Walmart, I finally purchased a s5 13b turbo engine. Now I'm waiting for the on the engine to get here at my school. Also as a added bonus I go to automotive technology at the community college here, with my teacher which has 3 rx7's out in the lot behind the school (2 fc's and 1 fb). I am also getting a rebuild kit and rotor rebuild kit for the engine. So here is my build thread! pictures will be up soon when I get home today and I'm waiting for parts to come in through the mail.

Sounds like a good start... Can't wait to see pics...

Thank man but if a admin could switch this over to the FC build thread I accidentally post in here :/ but in other news we got the motor in Tuesday and the rebuild kit got in on the same day a little bit later in the same day. Yesterday we finally got into the school shop to start working on the car! We're taking it slow and we got the old engine out. Tranny is coming out today and I'm swapping over some of the good parts from the n/a to the turbo then we are going to put in the turbo engine and start it up to see what is going on with it. The guy I got it from said that it had low compression on one side of the rotors so I'm expecting that the apex are worn down. So I will more than likely have to tear the engine apart to get to the seals and just do a complete rebuild for it while I still have it torn apart! Pictures will be up in a few!!
