They look better in a TransCamaro than a 3rd gen RX7.

You didn't have to go to another forum to find it.

Isn't there another forum you could go be insecure and neurotic in?

Looks like it is an automatic from the dipstick at the left rearside.

Umm, no there isn't a better forum for the remark I made and I apologize if the transcamaro wisecrack was a little too close to home for you. V8 in an rx7 = ruined rx7. Conversely I'm sure the members of the Corvette forums would feel the same about putting a 13B in a C5 Corvette.

Re: Re: Re: Nice tt V8

Have you ever seen/taken a ride in/driven a v8 rx7? Doesn't sound like it. While I would respect your opinion to not like the conversion, you would not be so harshly negative if you had actually experienced one.

Of course they'd think it was a bad idea. They'd lose horsepower, cut their gas mileage in half, and make their cars sound like ***.

Is it your car, are you spending the $$$, are you ever going to drive it? = No. Then why do you care?

Obviously you are interested or you wouldn't be looking in this section.

I hope there is going to be some kind of video when that tt is done.

Not to mention they will need to have another 13B motor in the "fridge" for the 20,000 mile "service". The add engine service!
