I'm looking at a 92, no engine or tranny. Mint body and interior.

It originaly had a single turbo, and 5 speed tranny,

I was wondering if a 13B TT could be fit into it, and if so would the tranny from a 13b tt fit aswell. And how much extra work would it be?

Thanks, this will be my first project.

Try buying a running RX7 first, then buy a project rx if you can afford it. Or if you really want this 92 shell make sure you have a rotary buddy to help you get it running, don't try this kinda thing on for your first project...unless you gots the money to eventually get it fingerd out.

Wouldn't it have originally had a 13BTT in it if it was a '92?

If so I have a feeling that it might just fit

Thanks, it turns out it is a 93, and was originally a TT so it will be no problem, i just ordered one from Osaka Motors in Quebec yesterday, can't wait until it arrives.
