Hello all! I've been the proud owner of a 1980 rx7 with around 110K miles for 5 years now and am new to the forum. The car is leaking oil and I am planning on rebuilding the engine out of interest to see the internals of a rotary engine as well as replace the apex seals before they get too worn out. With this in mind, I would like to make the car a streetable track car/autocross car. Most likely to compete in SCCA's FP autocross class. So the modifications I am thinking of at the moment are:


1. 81-85 front suspension swap
2. LSD and disc brake conversion
3. GSL-SE transmission, clutch, flywheel
4. Fender flares or wide body for wider tires
5. Some sort of porting, intake, exhaust, fuel system


The car already has RB suspension on it but I would like to be able to upgrade to adjustable shocks. I've had little success locating any recent threads on flares/widebody kits and am unsure on whether the transmission swap would work for my year and engine. Thanks for reading!

 

Any updates on the modification process? Great to know that it was successful.
