you can have a 9inch cut and made to git in stock positions for 1st gens. theres a thread in the wanted section of here of a guy whos makes them. im not sure of the price. but i know do get them on muscle cars it isnt cheap at all...

buy a 9in out of the bone yard, send axle out to a axle company to custom fab up all your pic up points from the factory axle and also re size the 9in to fit the wheel width and also make new axles to fit your rims. why would you want to keep the wats links though, they binde up. check into a 3 link with a pan hard bar. mazdatrix used to sell them. i forgot the name of the company now that makes them. i have it saved on my home pc

I understand that i will need to do some cuting and s#$@ but im not looking forward to tubing the car.

Granny speed shop or some thing like that. They think its cool to put V8's in rx-7's. I think they should eat **** and swallow hard. Having said that they do sell bolt in applications. 9" or 8.8" under FB using stock mounting locations. Kind pricy I think. No cutting. Try this get 9" have some one shorten it for u get a hold of granny's speed shop buy the brackets. Have some weld them to the rear then u bolt it in. Dont for get about the custom drive shaft. U got the right idea If u plan on sreious mods ditch that stock rear there junk. se chunk or gsl both are weak
