Ok, I have the chance to get an FC off of a friend for $500. It's non turbo. There is no interior. It has a short shifter. And it ran when we parked it.
I'm wanting to throw out the rotary and toss in an Sr20det. anyone done this with success. I know there is a black FC with the swap, and he loves it. this is just going to be my daily driver, since my civic to too powerful for daily driving now https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub..._DIR#>/sad.png |
he is the only person and he did all the work himself
|
You'll most likely need to swap in the drivetrain out of a Turbo2 to handle the extra torque/power.
|
do you even know who i'm talking about?
ohh, and just for reference...i'm not a n00b by anymeans. this is just my first FC. I've worked on some FD's....so i have a good understanding of the rotary theroy. |
i'll hve the sr20 stuff to go in
the RX i know that did the swap just had to get a DS made, the rear end can handle it i just need to know about mounting and wiring |
wont it be cheaper to just get the whole T2 setup ..... and produce similar power?
|
i'll be making more RELIABLE power with the SR
and I can work on SR's no prob. I was going to contact Rotorsports about it...but, i'd just rather have a good engine that's boosted and will last. |
Your best bet would be to contact the guy that did the swap, I dont know him or his name. You might be able to get in touch with him thru www.dgtrials.com.
I also think that you would need the more robust turbo car driveline in order to have some reliabilty. I have been contimplating a 1.8 liter miata turbo motor swap myself for the past year. Good luck! |
it's not going to be making that much power
i mean, i have a 556 whp civic...that's my toy... this is just going to be a daily driver any maybe around 300whp or so |
and not trying to be a dick or say that rotaries aren't reliable...
i'm just lazy when it comes to a daily driver...and i wouldn't give it the care a rotary needs. |
