CA Signin in from San Diego

Watup everybody I'm not good at introducing myself, I'm just a regular guy from San Diego county. Im prior military and i use to be a mechanic for the army. Recently I bought me a 1990 RX7 that seemed alright, but turned out to smoke like a chimney. Ive been doing my research and since I'm going to be in the process of repairing the car I figured I might as well go turbo 2. Ive been looking on c-list and what not hoping to find parts to do the swap. I'm also trying to find someone to trade my sti engine with, maybe for a 13bt. I'm hoping to have my car running before college starts. Wish me luck lol

Panameno,

Welcome to the rotary world!

The local San Diego crowd has its monthly meeting this Saturday, August 4th. Come
meet some new folks and maybe you'll get some answers to your questions.

The meetings are the first Saturday of the month in the Point Loma area. See the
calendar information link here. You can also check the Calendar list, under Quick Links,
for the same information.


Hope to see ya this weekend!

Ill be working at the Gas Lamp district for a few weeks if you see a gunmetal and black turbo2... I reccomend checking out ALNjdmautomotors.com their decently priced and bought 3 reliable engines since then.. easy to talk to and honest people.

If your just trying to get it running... you can purchase a S4/s5 turbo 2 for 1g and use your original drivetrain.. once you start getting about 7psi may want to go full T2 drivertrain..
