It is different! Different people think different things are cool, otherwise we would like the same ****. What fun would that be, then there wouldn't be anyone to make fun off.

Now why on earth would I appreciate this conversion? Last time I checked, I rebuild my own motor, did all the work to my car myself(except for painting and balancing tires)...
...how about this...when that car(or you car for that matter) can outrun MY FD...I'll "appreciate" that conversion.

Oh- and dont call my RX7 out unless you're willing to ship your car over from Japan so I can lay the smack down on your ***.

yeah, i believe if it's not a rotary, the only engine that will deserve to be put in is a ls1/ls6 engine. Unless for somehow sombody fits a hemi in there.... it'll loose it's 50/50 weight but you'll be hauling ***

I am so sick of seeing these damn v8 threads; it all ends in the same thing with the thread having to be closed. Atleast that car has a nice install, personally I would never do it, but damn that thing is quick...

Wow I never knew there was a company that catered to V-8 swaps in RX-7's. Thats a new one to me. Pretty wild *****.
I would never stick a V-8 in my Fd but only because in my little world V-8's are for rednecks. Like I said It's my little world so let me live in it.
But i'll be the first to tell you that I would so need my dads help trouble shooting an aling V-8.
Ughh Is that the bearings or the lifters making that noise?? Derhhhh..
I was just finally learning the ropes of the rotary engine. I don't want to start all over again with an engine that has more **** to learn
In anycase
Everyone chill out some. Van has a good point. V-8 swaps are wild *****
Redneck as they might be they do fix that blowing up problem that 3rd gens seem to have..

I SERIOUSLY doubt your FD would "lay the smack down" against me.
