engine swaps ??
 

Hey everyone my name is phil just got my 1986 rx-7 today and love it..... a few buddys of mine were tellin me that its possible to swap an sr20det motor into it from a 240sx ??? i have never heard of this but they know a place that does it.... plzzz post ur thoughts on this

You posted in the wrong section, and you will probably get flamed from here on in. Kind of sucks for your very 1st post. I personally think that it's pointless.

their is an "other engine" section of the forum lots of info there
sr20 has been done before

why would you even think about doing that. :balls:

Easy 400HP on stock internals, and without opening up the engine seems like a good reason to me. But lets not turn this into another pistons VS rotor bash fest. There is already one of those in the lounge.

You have become a true benedict arnold. Ever since you pulled the motor out of your FC you have been swinging from the Piston sack.

And yet I bought a rotary powered car today, funny isnt it. I <3 both. Im Bi.

What did you buy:)

87 Vert it gets here friday or saturday. Im as happy as I can be. Now if I could only throw the 85k from where I sold my peterbuilt into the vert, well lets just say it would be orgasmic.

I wasnt trying to turn it into a piston vs rotor bash I just dont see why you would want an sr20. have you had 400hp on a stock internal sr20?

lol...you get flamed for sure!

is better for you to go to 240sx forum. i'm sure they can tell you more over there.

i own an sr20 swapped 240. if u want an sr20 u should look around for a 240 roller.

if its the styling of the mazda u like. there r better engine conversions out there for the price u would pay for the sr20 and time/money to fab it up w/o alot of previous swaps to base ur work off of.

i dont know the situation, maybe u have an sr20 lieing around and u have the time and money to do this. but i would stick w/ either the turbo rotaries or v8s in the mazda.

i wasnt leaning towards an sr20 i was just wondering if it was actually true.... but as of right now i am pricing out a 350 v8 to put in it my buddy is a mechanic and said he would help me do it :D so i cant wait :D
