I already know that I probably won't get what I put into it and that's one reason I won't put it up for sale but if someone ever offers me a price that make me smile and jump for joy then hell yea I'll sell haha
|
I love the way the rotary sounds esp turbo. Rb swap gonna be sick.
|
Awesome looking car man and congrats on going with the swap
|
Looks nice man keep up the good work.

I would like to say thanks for all the positive comments on this thread. Look out for an FD build thread coming soon. |
Welcome and that is a good swap if 1 day I go back to piston engine (that would never happen lol) I would go RB25DET or 2JZ :) good luck
|
sweet man - look forward to seeing your build thread! is it difficult to source parts for the RB?
|
A few years ago when I first started this project it was a little difficult getting parts but now it's easier to find.
|
Love the combination and looking forward to seeing where your build goes!
|
Would love a video of this beast. The look and sound combination would be unique.
|
looks good man... post up some videos when you get it running
|
That RB25 is much sweeter than any V8 swap you could have done. Motor looks sick man. Cheers from Chi town.
|
Thanks man.
|
Good luck with your build, but you should have stuck with the rotary. That is waste of a Mazda I'm just saying!
|
that is awesome... i love it when people bridge the gap on just making things work... i love it when someone takes something out of one thing and puts it in something else and making it a beast... great job
|
Looks like it will be a fun swap. Love my 25s.
|
That thing is going to be so rad when it's all done
|
Rather see and RB going in than any LS engine
|
i cant wait to see this thing totally done! its going to be a monster!
|
There is nothing wrong with an ls swap. It is the same thing as going with an rb. if your taking out the rotary to put a piston engine it dosent matter if its a I6 v8 or even an I4 still a piston engine. I love the rotary but im not a millionare to spend 2k in parts every time the rotary decides to get messed up. The rotary is great i had 3 engines in my second gen but anything over stock power and they dont last long. I had an n/a with 246k on it and ran strong till i boosted it. Im keeping my ls stock with 365tq dont need much else.

Hello everyone, My name is Raz. Firstly I would like to say that I bought my FD with intentions of building a fire breathing dragon lol. I love to sound of the rotary and would still have it in my car if I knew how to work with that motor. I did try working on it with the help of my brother and a friend but after two blown motors I decided to go to a professional. The quote I got was not reasonable and I decided on a transplant. The build is coming along fine but slowly.
Good luck with the build. |
Sick setup bro. Keep up the good work!
|
Where in Chicago are you? I'm up in the northern suburbs (Libertyville area) and I'd love a chance to see this thing in action when it's ready.
|
Wow, the cleanest i have seen yet, I actually was thinking about a rb25 or 2jz swap !
