Thunkerd lives in San leandro ni live in union city. U should meet up next Thursday. We got sushi last night in Newark.

TooDeep

Yea i saw that meet. But was busy this week. Not sure about going to concord. but maybe.

I live in hayward.

I really dont plan on doing much to the rx7. Some things i like to do after i fix a few things would be Lsd. Light flywheel and Rb exhaust.

Sounds like i need to replace my throw out bearing. Isn't there another bearing in the transmission i should replace since im opening it up ?

I was told from my brother to open the transmission up and tilt the motor forward to get to the bearing.

If any one could possibly help me get this done id <3 you forever! Or buy you bunch of beers

Don't let it burst into flames like my brothers FB. I hear that tends to happen with these cars. Congrats, looks like a beauty. I would hurry up and put some BBS rims on those and do wood grain Momo steering and ****.

TooDeep

I like the woodgrain idea. But kinda like the Panasport wheels or Work Equip 03.

Atm tho would like to get the bearing fixed and go from there.

How does my homosexuality have anything to do with this guy's new Rx7? Seriously guys grow up especially you MaX PoWeR or else I may rape you when we got to Vegas.

TooDeep

I have read and read the post for what Oil to use and all i could get from it was a huge debate.

At the recommendation from Rotorsports I used Redline in my transmission when I changed my clutch out.

If you're replacing the TO bearing, replacing the pilot shaft bearing and seal at the same time is usually a good idea; it's all the same stuff to get off. Trans front seal/cover (which the TO slides on) might be a good thought, too.

Congrats to another 1st genner!

TooDeep

Yea that is the plan. just need a list so i can go buy the parts.

stoped by a local shop to see what they would charge to do this. and he kept asking if it was a V6 or not. I said No its a Rotary like 5 times before i popped the hood and said its a V nothing.

Oh and they said it would be 800 to replace the T/o. They can suck it.

Any way if there is any one who is Experienced and has tools ( i have a Case of Beer with your name on it Plus a few $.

I have done some work on cars. Just not on rotary. I use to be a Vw guy. owned 5 of them. 1 mk1 3mk2s and 1 mk3.

TooDeep

I also can not find for the life of me if i can swap in a 88 T2 transmission.

i have own a t2 motor and tranny and ecu from the last time i tried to do a swap. but never swap the motor in.

RicerJ

you need the s4 t2 rear end and everything to the flywheel or the flywheel clutch slave clutch and the 300 dollar mazdatrix drive shaft for t2 to n/a that is if its like a s4 rear end not to sure with 1st gens talk to 3rd and final 7

The 1st-gen specific forum is a good place to get advice on swaps like that. Lots of knowledgeable folks in there; you can frequently search and find an existing thread about what you're trying to do.
