Actually it is more funny how you only have under 100 posts and you are already stupidly considering ruining your Rx7 with a piston engine. Again I question why you and people like you are on this website and even own an Rx7 when you are foolishly dumping the rotary engine. That is what the Rx7 is about, hence the name.

You will never get a good weight balance with that heavy dinosaur design Chebbie engine. Why don't you sell your Rx7 to a worthy owner and buy a Camaro or a Mustang?

I have actually been a member for a quite a while here but just started posting.

 

FC yes, Rx7 NO.

 

I have done my research, that is why I bought an Rx7! You along with other rotary guys probably beat the hell out of your engines. You probably did the night before, which just showed up the next time you started the engine. I have NEVER heard of a rotary ruining by starting it. Obviously you abused or neglected it previous to that start up!!

 

Wow guys, you're dumb ***** if you are still trying to convince him he's made a bad decision with this swap. I love rotaries, and strongly dislike Ford, but the 302 has more power and torque than an NA...plus he already said he isn't doing it for that, he wants to do something different and it will be a great accomplishment for him when it's done. I won't put a piston under my hood, but that doesn't meant I'm gonna come on here and bitch at him for doing it. Take the sticks of dynamite out of your asses and just appreciate a fellow drifters own views and opinions.

And 90vert...you are a hypocrite. Don't flame on someone for having less than 100 posts. Look at your own post count ******. :P

Go for it 302!

You all sound like people that have nothing better to do than go on the Internet and argue with people. If you don't agree, you can say so without being a dick. In the end this will be a great build.

 

How unfortunate......


*sits and waits for justin to fix this guy's thread.....*

 

Have you even seen my build??? Why am I doing a piston motor? Because the guy I bought it from thought he could take out the motor and rebuild it, then never put it together, the exterior was beat and interior was pretty nasty too. The motor was in the passengers seat....
Only reason I bought it was it was 300 bucks, and it has no rust anywhere... Perfect drift car to me

 

You do know this is the "DRIFTING" section....right?

 

Big thanks to 90Vert for ruining someone else's build thread. You should go jump off your dick and die. Stay the **** out of my thread too.

Sorry to the OP for this guy..

 

Yeah, that would have been the perfect time for a 20B!!!!!!!
Not a Ferd engine. Did he leave the trans in? That would have been so much easier than a full powertrain swap, and that would have outperformed the 5.SLOW!

 

Probably not since the granny kit comes with a tranny crosmember, and a new driveshaft. The swap itself isn't even that difficult to do.

 

Lol, like I said, your a idiot. If driving home from work is abusing or neglecting then by that definition, yes, I horribly ripped on it. You stupid ****, Think about it. If I chipped a apex seal while driving it would've been a turd right then and there, not the next day when I got up to go to class. Dumbass.

302fc, are you gonna use the NA or TII rearend or go full Ford and do a Cobra IRS I've seen it in FD's but yet to see it in a FC. And what are you gonna do about the extra weight up front, spring rate wise i mean? My buddy dropped in a Q45 V8 into his S13 and even with it only being 60lbs heavier it still made the car drift different.

 

.....................................

 

So you are saying that a full drivetrain swap is easier than bolting in a 3 rotor where a 2 rotor was?

 

First off the rotary engine is pretty darn robust and has very few parts to ruin compared to your piston junk. I beat on mine regularly and have not had a problem so obviously you were doing something wrong. Quit blaming the engine.

Second you are making a scene about your piston engine in a pro rotary forum and you don't expect some negative comments? I think that makes you the dumbass.

You are more than welcome though to take your Frankenstein FC to v8rx7forum and maybe there you can find the acceptance you need.

 

rotary experiment 7!!!!

 

You're an ***, no one here likes you. Go away. Out of all the people here you seem to be the only one who has a problem with the swap. Why pay all that money for a 3 rotor, when a 302 swap makes more sense to him. They are cheap, don't ever ******* break, and it's easy to buy good parts for it.

No one gives a **** about your ****** *** biased opinions, it's a drift build. Point behind, lots of angle and smoke. So why don't you go jerk yourself off over your rotory vert faggotness somewhere else. And please GTFO..

 

You're either trolling or are legitimately one of the biggest douche bags on this forum.

 

have you ever swapped the drivetrain out of a car? 99% of cars have enough room to remove the engine and transmission together, dropping a v8 with trans shouldnt be that difficult to install into the fc especially when the granny kit comes with the custom mounts needed to complete the install, i understand where your coming from though since i was once a rotary purist but its pretty fucked up that you would come by and crap on another guys thread

 

How about you go away? You are on a rotary forum, or did you forget that?
I don't care what the build, a rotary powered car can be drifted, draged, road race, whatever. There is no need to swap out a perfectly good powerplant for a substandard one that ruins the handling of the car.

 

lol I can go ahead and bet mine handles much better than yours does. Do you even have a car? Some videos/pix of you drifting?

 

Nope, never wanted to. If I wanted a V8 in my car I would have bought a Mustang or Camaro. I bought an Rx7 because of the rotary engine. Again I seriously doubt that it is easier to swap a foreign powertrain compared to adding a turbo to a 13B or swapping in a 20B. If you understand my position, then you shouldn't get on my back about it. Rx7=Rotary engine.

 

My 13b-RE install took about 2 months working on it every weekend with friends, then it took another month or so to get it tuned, then blew up after drifting like all the rest. Put in an LS1 alone, took 4 weekends, raced on the 5th, have been sideways every chance I get after that. You?

Have you had an LSx FC and a rotary FC or are you just guessing what you think it would be like? RX7 is a car that came stock with a rotary engine. It's sad but since it came out of the factory 20+ years ago much better engines have been released. 300 instantaneous rwhp in stock everything is nothing to laugh at.

Get a ride in a lsx FC, then talk trash on someones build thread because right now you are basing your posts off nothing.

 

Hahahaha. This guy 90vert is funny. First off I'm not "swapping" anything I bought a SHELL meaning no drivetrain (engine/trans/driveshaft) so your argument in whole is really pointless because either way it would cost me about the same if not more to get a 13b turbo or not. Plus you obviously know nothing at all about modding a car because in order to get a 13b turbo to the same amour of power as my STOCK 5.0 I would have to upgrade the turbo and spend a sh*t load of money on a dyno tuning it to so itll last more than 2 passes. And still won't have anywhere near the reliability as my bone STOCK 5.0. So get off your dumbass high horse and go read a book or two about tuning before you try and comment on someone's thread. And please believe I know my piston motors as I am an ASE certified tech and also have worked with pro drift teams and actually have a few personal friends who are pro drifters. So of I don't know something they for sure doo. So just stop. Everytime you post you make yourself look even more dumb.

Now back to our regularly scheduled programming...


Igot the motors and drivetrain. In this weekend. Now all that's left to get her running is wire everything up and get an exhaust fabbed up!!

 

Tell all the RX8 guys that, robust lol. My friend, along with many other RX8 guys are on their second engine..... under warranty! lol robust.


I've never had a "piston" engine in my FC and I'm on motor number 6 because I've been through 5 "robust" rotary engines. Yes, they're cool engines but even a complete retard like YOURSELF has to admit they have lots of issues which motors like, oh, I dunno, a 302 don't have.

This is RX7Club, not Rotary **** Lovers Club. If anyone should get out it's trolls like you which will obviously never happen. 302fc is doing a good swap into a good chassis to have some great fun and you can't seem to get the blown apex seal out of your *** and enjoy that fact. Fail.

 

Pics or it never happened...LOL!!!
