Hi guys i am new to rx7,s i have been through DSM's and Hondas. I am currently trying to acquire a 88 GTU that some one was going to do a LS1 swap. And i just think that's wrong but to each his own i am a semi purest and think it should stay piston free. but I also have some plans for it i have a bunch of turbo stuff laying around form other applications and i kind of want to boost it tell i get a S5 engine lined up and built and ported. Well that's my story so let me know what you think.

 

Good for you. There were a couple of LS1 FD's at Sevenstock. I can't believe they had the guts to show their faces and cars around all the rotary purists.

 

i have always been a sucker for fc's just love em

 

man you wanna stay with the rotary!

 

why do you want a v8 anyways?

 

 

.

 

I don't want to put a v8 in it i just saved it now i am working to get it on its feet.

 

Sevenstock? So you mean like... its for Rx7's? I see nothing in that title to suggest "RotaryStock".

Now if it were rotary revolution, I would understand. Otherwise anyone hating is well... just kinda being an ***. Its their car to do whatever they want to.

 

i also feel this way but some people are just hardcore.

 

this is what i saved it is a 1988 GTU 126000










prety clean i am working on a 60k tune up so we will see how it runs then.

 

the body looks pretty clean

 

Yea it was a ok buy but no compression in the rear rotor.

 

will the turbo exhaust manifold work on a n/a 13b??

 

it won't work even if it did.

the lower intake manifold interferes with a stock TII manifold and turbo

 

**** my life! so in other words its much easier to do the turbo swap?

 

outside looks clean, how about the inside?? nice car id say.

 

i guesss ill be frowned upon cuz im planning a 2jz swap into a 3 gen....

 

I dont think you should be allowed to do the swap unless you already saved a rotary from destruction and neglect.

 

I could honestly care less what other people do to their cars. Although I did cry inside a little when I saw the CYM with the piston engine. SevenStock is a rotary engine convention. Did you not see the signs that said 'no pistons allowed'? And there was parking across the street from Mazda for 'piston parking'.
There were Miatas there, because they had converted to rotary and some pick up truck (not the REPU's), because they converted to rotary.
That is also why LS1 converts have SevenNotStock.

 

car looks very clean body wise.Hope you got a good deal on it haha. how's the interior look?

 

Yea it was a decent deal 6bills got 6xtra rims and replacement bumpers and trim, inside its prety clean. I went in to it knowing there was somthing rong with it now i am sorceing parts.

 

 

welcome!

 

I see the text your posted, but my brain only interpets:

I <3 Ignorance. First off that wasnt a CYM. It was Sunburst Yellow from the bathurst Rx7. duh..

If they didnt want Pistons in there, which honestly they really stole the show, they would be a lot more strict.

How about you quit your whining and build a car that can compete with the pure awesomeness known as the Lsx. Yeah I said it.

Also dont be such a little panzy about V8 rx7's inside the main area. We at SNS allow all to come and join in. Piston rx7's, rotary rx7's and even those who aspire to own an rx7. Its people like you who ruin nice car scenes by acting like a little bitch because a car you dont own has an engine you disagree with, regardless of how superior it may or may not be.
