Here's the Turbo II down the street from me. Plate reads "Andino" Very nice setup! Don't mind the mirror in the pic.

atkins builds 20B's for 6500 short block . but the rest of the parts are hard to come by.

that is a ready to drop in on an FC cause that is not bad because a 20B from jdmengineswap.com the 20B alone is 5K

those of you who told me they had or know of some FC's for sale have you found out how much they or you want?

haha, nice job with the pic, woudnt mind the rims so much if they werent color matched red in the centers. my buddy did say it looked like it had a skirt on the front bumper. Huh, looks clean though, i had worse visions in my head! wonder whats goin on under the hood? im not gonna dabble in the 20B area here, but i must say the 20B acosta motorsports put in their RX-8 was one of the cleanest swaps ive seen in person....

I'm in Nashua. I have a 3rd Gen just upgrade to single turbo and tune this past winter but the coolent seal let go. I'm saving up to do a rebuild. It's tough to find a local rebuilder around here.

Good luck finding any. Your best bet is to get one shipped to you and do the swap yourself. Its not all that difficult. Pettit regularly builds motors, Atikins, RX7 store, Rotary Performance....etc

boriqua51371 04-19-07 12:10 PM

i can rebuild that engine , i been doing rotary engines for about 10 years. here is one of my build ups which is going on my own car. http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e1...arparts047.jpg

boriqua51371 04-19-07 12:18 PM

also if you dont mind driving a bit you can go to here http://smokinjoeracing.net/disclaimer.php
he is a good honest builder and he will work with your budget. also very pleasant person, i met him through a mutual friend and i get parts from him all the time. in manchester there are other builder other than me of wilson st i have to go find the number for you , one of them works on toyotas and mazdas the other one works on any car , the one that works on mazdas and toyotas supose to be a good builder but the shop looks shady. any how if i can help you on the build up let me know, i am ford certify tech and i been working on rotaries since i was a kid in pr but i been building them for customers for 10 years now.

Nice build. Do you wanna teach people how to build? Where do you get the lapping done?

boriqua51371 04-19-07 02:14 PM

anyone that wants to learn all you have to do is provide the engine and parts and we can do it together . building a rotary is cake really. as far as the porting goes that takes a lot of work using carbide tools, i use a few different templates some from rotaryshack other templates from pineapple racing depends on the engine but to port the intake and exaust could take me a few days. if the engine internals are in perfect conditions its a straight foward build up if the bearings or other internals are in bad shape than the build up is longer usually waiting on the parts.

grade247 04-20-07 08:05 AM

anyone know when this big meet people were planning is going to happen?

I will probably take you up on that offer. I have an 89 NA sitting in my garage in pieces that I have been wanting to build for a few years now. I just need to find a body to put it in! I would definitely like to learn how to build them.

boriqua51371 04-20-07 11:24 AM

when you ready for it let me know we can build this either at your place or mind i get my parts from atkins but sometimes i go mazda original but if you want to save money go the atkins way are the irons and housing in good shape ? is the engine appart ?

CrackHeadMel 04-20-07 04:49 PM

holycrap.. i just put my injector's back in with new grommits and o-rings n such and threw in my batt from last year that has been sitting on the ground all winter so i could prime the fuel system and make sure its not going to leak.. my wolf controller said it had 11.7 volts.. wow not bad for a peice of junk batt that froze to the ground

oh and the orings didnt leak yey

tworotorguy 04-20-07 05:00 PM

boriqua51371 04-20-07 06:27 PM

well today was warm enough that i could move junk around my car and remove the rear end to get it fine tune. i also droped the gast tank to put the custom one but on the custom one i have rust inside now. i need to find a good radiator shop that can wash off the rust and put that new plastic coding in do you guys know any good one around manchvegas?

CrackHeadMel 04-20-07 06:42 PM

I was told if i ever need a radiator / oil cooler cleaned real well to go to an airport because their shops generaly have good equipment to do airplane oil coolers
