after many years of thinking about it finally want to dive into swapping the drivetrain , i got 140k miles out of my old rotary and it served me well but after researching I feel a ls motor is going to support my driving style better. anyone with tips or good sites to read ? or may have done the swap ?

 

I would stay with rotary but if you going piston, how about 2JZ?

 

Talk to Victor Schmitt at Schmitt Tuning. He done LS swaps on RX7s including the FD.

I'm currently running an LSX based R1 and I love it. Have to say its one of the easier swaps out there but don't let it fool you, even a good ol' iron block swap can get you up into the double digits price figure if your not careful.... If your dead set on LS I say go for it and have fun! Just make sure you can handle twice your budget number, odds are it will get there.
