Got a 2011 Mustang in the Seattle area, I love it but the RX7 has been my dream car since I knew it existed, I'm looking to buy one in the states here soon so If you have some tips for me just shoot them my way, please and thank you.

 

I just had a combination of both!
I put a 302 HO 5.0l with a T5 into a 1986 FC chassis..
I just let it go a week or so ago..had to,,need to live.

Anyways You came to the right place and the best thing I can give you is to READ..the Read MORE..and MORE...get to know what to look for,what the price point is and whether the car is gonna be just Another Man's Headache or not.(you can find cars in the Classifieds but no in THIS Intro section,so please no further inquiries..thanks man.)

Me finding this Forum is probably what has kept me in the game as long as I have been now..It has to be the most informative source of technical info for those Head scratcher Mechanical problems..and sometimes you can get some drama and *****(lounge..heh!)!.,.so it ain't that bad..
Good luck man and Welcome to the Forum
Cheers STYX (MOD)

 

Appreciate the reply!
I actually can't go to the classified tab while i'm logged in but I can get to it when I'm not logged in, any idea how I can fix that?

 

Hello and welcome to the forum!

There is a minimum post count required before you can interact on the classifieds section. Reason being to keep the forum an active exchange of advice and ideas between like minded people, rather than just a mini Ebay........ You can read up on all the site rules etc here: https://www.rx7club.com/how-use-site-255/

General gist is to interact with others, offer help/insight where you can and get involved. Please avoid the one line "your car is cool" etc just to get your posts count up. Read some threads and comment on some builds and other things you are interested in, or can offer advice on. Your post count will climb to the 10 post minimum in no time at all then you can access the classifieds

Welcome man! ima huge fan of the Coyotes. Very fast platform and very much preferred (to me) than the newer s550's.

 

I'm in the works of importing an rx7 from japan with a buddy of mine that's already over there, the plan is to swap the 13B with a 5.0, thoughts?

 

I just sold a GT350 to finally get an Rx7. I've been waiting for years.

 

Yeah....don't do it!

If you are going to swap for a fat heavy v8 you may as well just keep the Mustang. In my opinion the whole point of the RX7 is the engine.

 

I'm not opposed to keeping the 13B, the whole rotary thing is pretty intimidating but it'll be a good learning experience.

 

As much as im a fan of the Coyote, it does not belong in in the FD. From a purist standpoint, its obvious. However from a swap standpoint....im not even sure it would fit. Compared the ls1 5.7, the modular coyote 5.0 engine is HUGE. It physically takes up like 25% more room across thanks to its overhead cams (all 4 of them). by the time you swap that thing in, you could have built a beast 13b.

 

I guess I won't be doing the coyote swap haha, I'm just not a huge fan of the exhaust note of the rotary

 

Get a full header back titanium exhaust, that will fix your problem! Trust me

Made mine sound very deep and more exotic.
