Get used to it. GL on the next one.
Juuuuussttt so you know. There is a $400 junk yard 5.3L stock shortblock turbo running 8.9s in an FB if you are a drag racer.

Jesus H. Christ!! Let it go tweak. There are some of us that really like our cars. Find out how it all went down before you try to stuff a piston engine in it. Just because you could not make it work for you or bend it to your will does not mean it is junk.
OK. Now back to our regularly scheduled programming.
As I said before bro' I have your fresh engine sitting on my workbench. Right now.

I like cars too.... Never said it was junk... You really seem mad. 
I really just thought an FB that runs sub 9 second quarter miles on a $400 engine was cool. I didn't hold a gun to his head and tell him to ditch the rotary or request that he post pictures of his sister in the shower. Semma down nya, semma down.
Let us know what's busted. If it's just an NA, at least your turbo isn't trashed.

Lol, I'm always friends with anybody, even if they are rotarded. If you ever met me in person you would know that. <3s
I hope you have better luck with the next one.

I think he ment that the engine was pulled out of a GSL-SE with unknown mileage and he had put an additional 3k on it in his car.
Rebuild, and do it right. I just so happen to have a pair of next to new GSL-SE rotor housings taking up space in my garage if you are in need. I would let them go for less than half the price of bran spakin new ones.

Lol thanks. I just thought of it today out of the blue. Thought it was pretty clever if I do say so myself. Will most likely get removed by the admins though.
I wouldn't have you any other way bud!
Would be boring if everyone always agreed on everything.

FD > FB > FC
Crazy! especially considering we just saw you on Saturday. So whats the plan, going to rebuild the GSL-SE block or something different? You could step up to a FC block now since you are going to rebuild route anyway.

But on a serious note, I have no issues what so ever with swapping a rotary out of a 7 and putting anything else in it. This is a rx7 forum where the majority are rotorheads so the constant, repetitive and predictible V8 comments are getting annoying.
