ya know we thought about throwing one of those in my buddies fc3s before he got it rebuilt at banzai racing in indiana (chris does good work by the way)

i felt is was way better than throwing a GM or chevy domestic in it because it made me feel dirty

because i am a nissan whore and i repsct the rx-7 to much :)

How to make an RX-7 reliable?

You can't. :2f2f:

Unless you put a Nissan heart into it. :fawkd:

Keep us updated on that though. Looks nice!

[reefer1114]

wish i could just be bored and throw in a sr in a fc...

[ALTRNTV]

"I'm bored."

"Yea, me too."

"I know, we'll throw in that spare SR20 into the FC in the garage."

"Cool, let's go."

:naughty: :naughty: :naughty: :naughty: :naughty:

[RSP13-Sideways]

Hit me up AkademikONE, I'm bored too hahahahaha

[FallbrookS13]

would've been easier to buy an s13

[ALTRNTV]

Hahaha... I'm as bored as anyone else. I've been on Zilvia the whole day.

I'll put a 13b into an s13...

[HyperTek]

so will there be offerings like just motor mounts etc?

motor mounts, driveshaft, oil pan, and wiring...the whole deal

[AllenRPS13]

rotary is not reliable anyway...

feels like im looking at a crossdresser from looking at the picture.. yet I cant take my eyes off that transexual... =)

[!Zar!]

Nice conversion. Just hit me up, and I'll leave my car with you next time you are "feeling bored".

[kazuo]

People done did that already.

Also

The correct way of making a RX7 reliable is V8.

But interesting nonetheless.

[Andrew Bohan]

V8 > *
can't go wrong with stock 350hp and 350 ft-lbs

[SRd240sx]

any other pictures? like inside the engine bay to see how stuff lines up?

[Slo S14]

I know a guy with a sbc powered FC, and another with an LS1 powered FD. I want one too :2f2f:

[andrewmp6]

You're an animal Marc, stop it! :)

[phreze]

Any plans to make a swap kit for the sr in a fd? I love the shape of that car since it first came out and could always look for one with a buster engine and swap in my sr :)

Yes, I know this has been done. I like what you did with the fc though they are nice cars as well.

[txrxs]

i know what the special motor is...sign me up marc, i've got a nice donor car that needs a motor, bad...the car's bleeding like a hemophiliac.

[SRx7]

Hi, I am new to the nissan community. I am an rx7 owner but I am getting out of the rotary engines and such. I plan on putting an SR20 into my FC. Anyone with any kind of knowledge about such a swap would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

[EchoOfSilence]

you should hit up Modern speed labs. dude, the number's right there.

[hmooblis]

will the sr kit for the fd also fit a ka? if yes, can we say project time?

Although the rotary isn't so reliable, an rx7 isn't an rx7 w/o it. It's just the way it is. It's like a hachiroku with a rotary in it, although it's fast, it's not the way it's supposed to be. You want an rx7. you need to be able to maintain it if you want it, otherwise, look for a different car.

No wonder you got pinked.

If the old school draggers thought like you back in the day, drag racing would not have been invented.

stop being so nostalgic or whatever. use the best parts you can afford. sometimes when you have money you can afford a car with good underlying handling and put a beast motor in it. who cares if it's not the stock motor. who cares if it's a different manufacturer. who cares if it's not from the same country. it's better than what it was before and that's the bottom line.
