newbie here wanting to know your opinions...
 
Hello I am a newbie my name is Jessica and I was just wondering your opinion on an rx7, it is an 85 silver red interior leather and it has a swapped out motor, here is what the motor is now.... it is a dual over head cam v6 that came out of a 929s and it also has had nitros added to it. So let me know what you think good bad or otherwise, also what do you think something like that is worth?

It's not worth anything at all, IMHO.

Any given modified car is worth less than a pristine un-molested example, particularly one that has such an oddball motor in it.

I'd steer clear.

Id have to go with Moses on this one. That is a strange swap.

Now if it had a fuel injected 5.0 or something in it, that would be different story.

Stay away and find a rotary example.

The engines from the 929's is absolute CRAP! Quite possibly the worst engine Mazda ever produced IMO. They are reliable, but upgradability and stock power are dismal.

Well if you wanted it, you could put your own V8 in it. Just see what is ran for feul lines, catch out the nitrous lines and so on and just see how it looks. But that engine is a waste of time
