hey, i just got my hands on my first 2nd gen rx-7. its just a rolling shell. im going to need engine and all the drivetrain. any pointers would be great

 

are you going to go with a T2 build up or n/a?

 

congrats, FC are one of nicest looking car.

 

Grats on the new RX

 

you gotta lot of work in front of you.. be ready to spend your next few weeks/months in this forum

 

Guys, keep the parts offering stuff limited to pm's or post a classified thread but keep it out of these forums. :-)

 

This might be of a little help. Not so much for obtaining parts, but for visualization purposes:

I'm in the middle of a restoration project on an '88 Vert also. This might be a bit helpful.....not so much for obtaining parts but for visualization purposes. Here's the link:

Cool enjoy rotary actioon!

 

i got a 90 gtu shell about 3 weeks ago and im almost regretting spending the 250 on it haha

how much did you spend??

is it rusty?

 

Congrads on the TII.. I just got mine less than a couple months ago and love it... honestly im going to say research research research.... find what you want yours to be and then take the best approach to getting there.... i know more about rotarys than the guys at most speed shops in the area... after reading a few books... o and i would definatly invest in a workshop manual... the other books are great too but the worshop manual makes it all easier... better pics and diagrams and WAY better explanations....

 

great place to start. check out ebay for an LS1

 

it's not rusty at all not a singal spot. U spent 250 on a shell and u regret it? Why is that, I origanaly bought this to do an ls1 swap but the swap Is so pricey. I'm not sure if I'm up for dropping 5 grand into just the drivetrain.

 

the lsx motors are expensive though

 

i almost regret it because i have alot of work ahead of me and she is slightly rusty nothing to bad but still.

im only 18 and work part time and go to school full time

and i cant find a 13b n/a or turbo for the life of me so im getting pissed

 

Nice dude thats what im hoping on geting is 88 turbo good luck with you project

 

i got a n/a motor and tranny for 50 bucks
took it apart and realized that one of the rotors is shot or so i think gonna do more research but yeah not bad i dont regret it anymore haha
