QUOTE (ranta18 @ Jul 29 2004, 07:12 PM) What all is blown up? The turbo? Intercooler? Garner - Get the car, shifter, and brakes. Screw the wheels. The motor has low compression in one rotor. I'm assuming it's the rear. It ran on one rotor and then sometimes the other one would seal and it'd start running as well. I sold nocones the turbo for $50. You will get a turbo, ic, etc. when you buy a swap though. |

My serious plans were to make this a 700hp/500whp supercar. I ordered a 13B-RE in January and had it sent to BDC in texas to do a 1/2 bridge. My motor still has still not arrived, I bought a house, and am now 10K shy of my dream. The car was going to be completely renovated inside and out, as well as completely rebuilt to be solid. Every car I've bought I've replaced the bushings as well as most of the suspension. For this car, I was getting coil overs such as teins, poly bushings, stainless braided lines as well as powder coating the entire suspension, including the rear.
In all honesty, black fc rx7 turbo IIs are my favorate looking cheap sports car. For the $$$ imho, you can't find anything better or sexier. |

Got ya. I wasn't sure if it was just massive destruction. I know Dave, owner for fc3s.org, and can have him re-build it if its in good enough shape though. It would be cheaper than buying a used JDM motor. He could also tweak it a little so its even better. I'm going with Garner tonight to look at it with him, so we can talk about it more then.

QUOTE (badbu68 @ Jul 30 2004, 02:44 PM) QUOTE (Forcus @ Jul 29 2004, 07:54 PM) The electronics do not age well, meaning gremlins seem to pop up everywhere. Everything works on the car except for the rear wiper. I've used the cruise and a/c on the highway and everything. The interior was in immaculate condition, it still is, just the door panels are out right now and some of the plastic for the speakers are removed, I'll probably put that all back in right now. Sorry I didn't mean your car in particular. I just meant that as a daily driver, it might not have the reliability of say, a Civic. Mysteriously everything works on mine too, even though its been sitting since the 90's. Brian |
