How hard to put a JDM 13B RE tt swap...

in a 1st gen rx7? I saw a 13B REtt engine on ebay for like $1,499. Here it is. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/JDM-1...spagenameZWDVW. So here are my questions. First off, I'm probably dreaming of doing this.

1. How hard would it be to get everything installed?

2. What would i need? What modifacations would i have to do to make it fit?

3. Would i need a stronger tranny, driveshaft, rear axle, etc.?

4. I would need a new exhaust system right?

5. How much would all of this cost?

6. Would it be street legal?- probably not

Anything else can you help me. This most likley won't happen, but it would be sweet. Thanks

You posting this in the wrong section, you should post this in the 1G section, this is primarily people wanting to put non rotary engines in Rx7's

Your better of with a T2 swap than an Re swap.
