Hey yall, im getting into rx7`s my brother has an 85 rx7 gsl se, its in rough enough shape and barely runs, i would like to know how much horsepower these things have stock, i plan on rebuilding it, and making some nice horsepower, also how much mods will i need to get to 250hp?



Thanks shano`

turbo.(and everything related to them)

Yeah 250hp will mean either a turbo or a bridgeport, if this is your first rotary project I'd suggest doing a stock rebuild, adding a full Racing Beat exhaust and K&N panel filter, and enjoy the resulting 160-ish hp for a while https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png



Then switch to a Weber carb for an additional 20hp or so.



It'll be pretty quick then.



Cheers

its got 135hp stock

yeah, im gonna be driving in a year or so, so i have plenty of time to learn, right now it needs a new exhaust, tie rods, interior, fan and some other ****.. But i was planning on starting on intake/exhaust then, turbos and the other stuff... Is there any good site you would recommend for 1st generation rx-7's? (parts)

Also, how much woulda a turbo cost? (canadian) I just got the new victoria british also.. but i need to know some price ranges... im gonna get some pics of the car soon also..

My turbo setup probably cost $2700 total, including the engine block w/ a transmission.



I'm about to drop another $300 in it for a racing clutch/pressure plate.



The engine is so powerful that it just spins the stock clutch.

good luck with your project man. AND I BETTER SEE A TURBO!
