Another V8 RX7!!
12 Attachment(s)
Hey all,
My name is Jordan. I had a 2004 Pontiac GTO, but I always wanted a FD. I sold the GTO, and decided to build a budget 5.3 swap. For this season, and probably the next, I will be running pretty much stock 5.3 with a pretty generous shot of nitrous. My goal is go to go single turbo 5.3. 1993 Mazda RX7 5.3/t56 swap. I have a 1993 Mazda RX7 that I am going to put a stock 5.3 with t56, and just spray the shit out of the car. I will continue to post more pictures of the build up, and keep you guys informed! On the trailer Attachment 756205 Pulling the rotary out Attachment 756206 No iron triangles here Attachment 756207 Some v8 Attachment 756208 New Oil Pan Attachment 756209 Cool picture Attachment 756210 Nitro Boost Attachment 756211 Spec Attachment 756212 Going in Attachment 756213 In her new home Attachment 756214 Attachment 756215 Attachment 756216 Got all the front accessories, clutch hydraulics, power steering lines, exhaust stuffs, and driveshaft in. Next is fuel lines, and wiring! |

What are you doing to the rear end to keep in from self destructing? Are you using one of the LS swap kits? Looks like an awesome project!
|
nice...!!
|
Very nice man
|
Beast
|
While I'm more of a 1st gen rotary guy, I know that's a damn good motor. My suburban has one. More power to ya.
|
Nice swap! Im currently waiting on funds to start my project too! Good Luck!
|
nice to continue to see people keep these cars alive ..
|
That is awesome, nice work
|
Great swap! Looks like a clean FD. I can't wait to see what this thing will run on spray alone.
|
Great work!!
|
LS power! Hit it with a 300 shot and hold the F on.
|
I am also considering doing this, looking forward to some pictures in the future!
|
Thanks everyone! The fuel lines and corvette fpr are ran and hooked up. Hopefully soon I can post up a start-up video!

Great and sexy swap!!
|
WOW nice work
|

|
thats gonna be a fun ride.. straight drag car??
|
Motor looks beefy!!!
|
How much money have you put into this build already?
|
Looks pretty good
|
I wish I had the balls to do this swap..
Good luck. |
The engine looks absolutely beast! I too would like to know how much the project has ran you so far. I have an FD that I'm trying to rebuild the engine for keeping the twin turbo set up on the 13b-rew.
I told my dad that I could swap an LS1 if I wanted to and he started to get on my case about fitting a beast of a piston engine in there lol. Only LS engine I would want to stick int here would be a LS7 but I know the conversion kits run at least around 10k not including the price of the engine. Maybe if I come across an absolutely destroyed Camaro SS to rip the engine out of cheap at a salvage auction or something I really wouldn't think about converting. Good show though, looks like its coming along just great! Cheers! |

Very nice, LS or go home!

very nice swap

Greetings from a fellow new member with an ls powered fd. :icon_tup:
|
Always been a fan of GTO's. That's a great looking RX7 you have there as well.
|
nice
|
great mod!
|
Looking good!
|
How can the body handle the extra weigh plus final torque numbers with turbo??
|
Welcome op. Looks like its gonna be a beast congrats. Now many of us here aren't too keen on V8 swaps, but in the end I subscribe to the idealogy of 'hey its your car, do what you want'.
