My name is Tommy. I'll start by saying i've owned many cars in my day but the FD has always been my favorite... like many of you. I purchased a rolling shell not to long ago and planning a a swap other than a rotary. I'm sure they are great motors and make plenty of power, I just prefer pistons.

 

You should drive one of each in the rx7 before you decide the rotary is great

 

Welcome to the boards, Tommy. What mill have you in mind for your FD?

 

any pics?

 

Don't do it! Give a rotary a try first, it will amaze you!

 

I'm in the same boat Tom. I want an FD, but I come from a Chevy background. I'm thinking a nice LS motor in one would be the way to go.

 

Welcome tommy

 

Give the rotary a chance!! There so much fun and welcome.

 

to each his own. definitely more overall HP potential.

 

If your daily driving to work then get an LS in the rx7. Other than that enjoy the rotary for around 80,000 miles or so but that is stretching it a bit and depends how you drive and maintain vehicle.
