is there any major problems dropping in a 91 TII into 88 GXL??

thanx alot

Yeah I'd like to know this to cause im getting a 91 T II j-spec in my 88 SE. I was just told I"d need a TII ecu and a partial wiring loom for emisions ??? Screw emisions https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/devil.gif

of what i know of there isn't much difference between the two shells... you will need an ecu, if you can't get one I'd suggest the haltechs e6k.... but other then that there isn't much difference other then boost guage, turbos have 5 lug wheels instead of 4 lugs, and the hood, which you would prolly consider getting unless you get a front mounted intercooler....

you would want to swap drivetrain eg, trans,diff,axles,driveshaft and suspension to handle the power from the t2 engine. no point in doing all that work and blowing the tranny or diff etc

Now with the e6k would I need to get a factory ecu??

with haltech you don't need factory ecu. e6k comes with new wiring harness, etc

I'm putting a '91 GTX motor in my '88 SE...here's a list of the turbo II parts you'll need to get and add:

*Tranny

*ECU

*Mass airflow sensor

*Driveshaft(depends, sometimes they can hook up)

*You'll need an FCD too probably(I did)

*Hood(unless your doing a FMIC)

*and turbo exhaust

That should at least get the car running..other stuff you could add, but don't need to:

*Turbo II coils

*LSD(if you don't have it)

*Boost gauges



You don't really need to worry about the suspension or brakes, all Rx7s have great factory setups...need more info, just say so...lol, trust me if your going to do this yourself, you'll want to make sure you have wiring diragrams, a manual, and a helper...DO NOT ATTEMPT THIS ALONE, lol.

you'll need a fuel pump other than that seem to have everything.

thanx guys, i have the entire car (it was hit by a transport truck) so should it yeild everything??? :yinyang:

WOW, you are very lucky. if you have the whole car then obviously you have everything needed. as long as it wasn't damaged in the accident. i would swap EVERYTHING! if you can.
