I'm west of Chicago in Melrose Park. I'm sure you'll see it around once I get it running.

I rather stick with the rotary sense that is what Rx7 is known for. But I have to admit that RB looks sexy in that bay.

LS1's are too easy and they're in everything from 240's to miata's glad you chose the rb26. but the 13b really isnt that difficult once you understand her and giver her some TLC. power per liter is what keeps me smiling ear to ear everytime i lay into boost

I like the idea of the RB25. I personally like those engines. I think it'll be interesting if only because it's something different. good luck with your build!
