building a 13b for circuit
 
hello, I currently own a r32 gtr, but have always had a serious love for rx7 fd's, I'm just wondering approximately how much it would cost to build a rotor for circuit use, I plan to start entering in some clubsprint events, and tossing up weather to sell the 32 and buy my dream car to compete in, I used to own a FC, so I have some understanding, but would love to hear from some experienced people what they believe the costs would be? I would be keeping the car registered initially so I wouldn't be looking for a Monster port or any thing along those lines.

Cheers Elliot

well really it comes down to the "rules" of whatever organizing body you want to compete under. Building a car that requires safety standards to be meet (and meet properly, ive seen some shit cages before) generates an additional cost that is rather uniform regardless of what the car is.

Suspension modifications, braking modifications, tires, etc are largely also uniform for similiar chassis cars. So really it just depends on what do you with the engine.

Rebuilding a 13b, doing some porting, going single, working with whatever standalone you opt for (choose wisely) all have some pretty well layed out and predictable costs since basically anything you could ever want to do to an FD has been done. Sometimes, poorly, but research the differences between your options
