88 Vert Turbo II swap
I have an N/A 88 Vert. I just picked up a new Turbo II motor and everything. And I want to know if I can use my original Trans? and what other small stuff I need?

Now would be a good time to read through the FAQ: https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.p...55#post5131155.
Can I swap a Turbo engine/Jspec engine/13BT/etc into my Non Turbo?

To answer the transmission question, sort of....If you don't intend on upgrading the engine much and keep the power level around 200HP, then it should be fine for a while. The NA transmission is far weaker than the TII transmission and while it will handle the power (and surprisingly, a lot more power) it also becomes FAR easier to break.
If you want to use the NA transmission, you'll need to swap the NA flywheel onto the turbo engine.

Ok Cause I dont really plan on doing a whole lot to the motor. Mainly just wanted it as a daily driver for now. Cause My issue was I could not find a T II rear end.

No problem. Yeah summer is a great time to work on your 7, I was stuck favoring one of my 7s over the other but Im focused on my vert now. It looks like you have a cool project going on though, itll be awesome when its done. For emissions removal go to rotaryresurrection.com and look in the tech section and it will have a good write up with pictures on what to remove and how to!

Picked up the Wheels off Craigslist. I wanted a set of staggered 17's. But found these for only $200! So 18's it is. The Tires are shot and they are little beat up and one of the fronts has a a pretty bad rash...but I am going to see if I can clean them up a bit.

Whats the difference between the n333 and n332? I previously bought the n333 for the swap, but I picked up another harness and the guy threw in the n332.

N332: '87 TII
N333: '88 TII or 10AE
They're interchangeable. https://www.rx7club.com/2nd-gen-archive-72/ecu-part-numbers-applications-873382/
