nice..quick question, do you know where to get a 1jz stateside? my friend is trying to find one for his sc300.

 

A 7 without a Rotary is not a 7 if you ask me. But nice car.

 

What if it had a 7MGTE in it? A 7 with a 7?

 

Nice Car.

 

im not really a fan of the body kit being moulded all around or the side mouldings being removed...or the engine swap...but to each their own

 

A Bunch of haters in this thread. Your car is clean. Nice job on the swap. If i didnt go Ls1, toyota inline 6 would of been a definite consideration.

How much hp does that beast have?

 

Hmmm... the torqueless bastard child of the 3rd gen Supra... Interesting choice... Well at least now you're fully prepared for a 2J swap! Lol... What made you decide to go 1J over the 2 or even the 7M?

 

ITS NOT THAT I HATE OR DISLIKE THE ROTARY, I VE BEEN WORKING ON THE ROTARY ENGINES FOR JUST ABOUT ALL MY LIFE! ITS JUST THAT THEY ARE NOT RELIABLE I DONT CARE WHAT YOU SAY IF A ROTARY IS NOT BUILT BY RE OR THE MAZDA DEALER SHIP IT IS NOT A RELIABLE ENGINE. YES THEY MAKE GOOD POWER BUT WHAT IS POINT OF POWER IF IT IS NOT RELIABLE. I M NOT TRYING TO MAKE ANY ONE MAD. ITS JUST THAT MY CAR TO ME DIDNT HAVE A RELIABLE POWERPLANT. AND I DONT KNOW ABOUT YOU GUYS BUT HOW MANY OF YOU ROTARY GUYS HAVE TAKEN YOUR CAR ON A CROSS COUNTRY WITH OUTBLOWING UP ???? EVERYBODY THAT SEE MY CAR ON THE STREET LOVES AND SO DO I ! THANKS FOR YOUR COMMENTS AND PLEASE RATE MY CAR ON MY CARDOMAIN PAGE THANKS ALOT !!! http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2919369

 

that is a gorgeous car....how hard was it to do a 1jz swap into an FC , bc I was actully thinking of doing this. my Best friend is currently doing a 98 240sx with a 1JZ engine into it...LMK asap

 

congrats on originality. i like it.

 

im not going to lie i think this is badass and unique. good job on doing what you want with your car.

 

Its pretty cool I give him props!!

 

pretty neat

 

Reliability... thats what my two other cars i drive are for.

 

I don't know if its just me, but my Rx-7s never let me down. I've driven my FC turbos hours away and to come back for another couple of hours right after. No engine failures for me, temperature doesn't even rise. The most I ever had was the MOP go out on me and it went into limp mode. ever since, I have gone premix to avoid that problem. Ok, it did die once on me though a long time ago, because I ran out of gas. I have raced my fc turbos hundreds of times, but they are still good to go and compression is pretty much the same. All my cars ranged from stock turbo 180whp - bnr stage 3 300whp. So I don't know about 500-600 whp, but I'd think any engine with that much power would have a lot of wear and tear and considered unreliable.

I'm not hating on your swap though. Just dropping my 2 cents of what you said. Still if you were going to do a jz swap, I would of just done the 2jz. But the engine is clean nonetheless.

 

No one is asking you.




Sik car man...got any vids?

 

+1

I've only been driving an rx7 for about 6 months now and haven't had any issues while driving.

 

Thats argument is convincing

i like...sep for the giant spoiler..not really my thing but fancy lookin engine..lol

 

build piks or gtfo.

 

Forgot to add that my engine was IMPORTED from Japan with 90,000 Kilometers on it.

 

Love the swap!! great choice of engine. Glad you didnt go v8

 

The RX-7 is special cause it was made with a Rotary Engine instead of a piston engine. Putting a Piston engine in a car made with a rotary is like spitting in Felix Wankel's face. He didn't make the rotary for it to be replaced by a Piston is all I am saying. Do what you want with you 7 cause it is yours and nobody can tell you what to do with your car. The car looks great and probably runs awesome as well. I was just stating my opinion.
