lets put a new engine in the FC?

Already sold the car.

Good friend of mine is investing in a 2JZ swap for it. I already bought another car. 93' 240sx VQ35 swapped w/ GT28 Turbo.

I'll probably put the RX8 on hold and save money to possibly do the 16X swap if it ever comes out.

Hey everyone.
Im currently deployed out of Ft Hood
Got a long while left before Im back but Im starting to invest in some parts for an FC Rx-7.
Not currently in possession of one and have never worked on a rotary myself..
But I intend on jumping headfirst into it when I get back..
Im more than likely going to pick up a shell and motor separate and rebuild it.
Ive never done a rotary before though - so I figured I could get ahold of some guys on here while I'm spending many months reading. Maybe I can find someone willing to help me along while Im tackling the project.

In the mean time if yall could keep me updated on how the Target meets are going and if any new rotaries show up that'd be awesome..
Im usually there (I own a gray '06 miata) with a black SR20DET 240sx, and a Red Type-R swapped Honda Civic.. if any of you might remember :P

So anyways.. If someone comes by an FC shell or 13B-T please let me know! Ive got a guy back at Hood who can check it out for me and I might have him scoop it up and put it in my storage unit!

'Preciate it!
