Looks like it might fit, the mount looks a little wierd. this is the rx-8 tranny BTW

The motor mounts look like they're in the right place too.hmmmm

yea me and mike(j9) were discussing if the tranny would fit. looks just like a t2 tranny.

Geoffman72 01-19-2003 04:11 PM

Wonder how much power it could hold.

Geoffman72 01-19-2003 04:14 PM

One thing, it doesnt "exactly" look like a TII tranny. Looks like a second gen NA bellhousing there.

j9fd3s 01-19-2003 09:07 PM

its actually the 6 speed miata tranny with a rotary berrhousing, so its might fit

it's designed to hold the incredible torque of the RX-8: a whole ~150 ft/lbs.

it also has ppf so have to swap the tail housing

cymfc3s 01-20-2003 05:06 PM

not worth it unless you get the tranny for dirt cheap. The 5speed is geared pretty damn good.

rotarychainsaw 01-20-2003 05:30 PM

the coolness factor

cymfc3s 01-20-2003 05:42 PM

j9fd3s 01-20-2003 06:14 PM

imagine a six speed non syncro box.....oof!

sleeperRX7 01-20-2003 09:32 PM

looks like my na tranny, replacing my clutch burned the image of the my damn tranny into my head and shattered my fragile little mind.

1Revvin7 01-20-2003 09:53 PM

well more than likely it won't hold **** for power, just miata and n/a trannies.

Wouldn't the Miata 6 spd work in a FC with the right bellhousing?I thought they were identical?

Cheers! 01-21-2003 02:44 AM

screw the tranny... get the engine... 240 HP NA...



with open exhaust and no cats you might get close to 290... its 280 in japan because they have less emissions laws.



anyhow... the engine, tranny, limited slip are all good... it should fit nicely in a FC.



Oh the though.... OMG... that is so sexy...

rx7machine 01-21-2003 08:36 AM

6-speed.. :bigthumg:

ROTARYROCKET7 01-21-2003 10:01 AM

yeah actually i stole it from the nyc auto show and have it sitting in my basement right next to the cats bed
