i heard this was the best place for all rx7 anything of all kinds. my name is brandon and i just bought a 88 gxl automatic with a blown transmission. right now i think about my rx7 all day everyday, wanting to get behind the wheel. but now i just patiently wait the 5 speed swap process that i only need a new clutch for and i'm ready! so yeah i can't wait to hit the road in the blue dream. greetings all!!!!

 

Welcome to the forums Brandon. Funny, my intro post has almost the same title... (well, once it is approved by the mods).

 

thanks man! yeah my daily driver is a 93 subaru impreza LS. i have had it for 4 years now and its great, i love it, but its a sloooow 1.8. I was going to swap a complete 2.0 v4 turbo in it but it is expensive. just glad i have an rx7 now to.

 

Agreed. The N/A Subarus are super slow, LOL.. and the swaps are crazy expensive. Anywho, congrats again on your 7.. I hope to have one shortly.

 

well the long anticipated wait is all over! we finally finished my car with the new turbo 2 transmission with a nice act racing clutch and heavy duty flywheel, shifter, ****, pedals, and vroomin. I'm loving it like mc donalds. been driving it for a bout 3 days now.

of course my suspension in murdered and i need a new drive shaft. looks like this car is going to be nasty. or tasty! a little a both. i'll try to get a picture up if i can figure this electronical gadgetry out.

 

Woohoo! Progress pics?!

I don't believe you are doing the swap. It can't be done. (did that get you angry enough to post pics?) smilie x7

 

alriiiight! when i get home from work tonight i will put up some pics. i need a file transfer cable. and a shifter boot cover thingy. a towel works great as a shift boot cover, because i didn't forget to bring a towel! at least thats what towely always says.

 

Welcome I'm new to this forum as week just picked up and fd like 4 days ago
