I'm not talking about wifes or girlfriends.



Anybody here ever done a swap from n/a to TII for. I just want to see how many people were crazy like me to do a swap.

nope. the car had 180k miles and blown engine. so i stripped the car and junked it. i bought it for $300. it was my first rx7 it has 4 lug wheels etc, i didn't want to waste anymore money or time on it and i found the GTU so i transferred some parts that the GTU was missing it was a good learning experience of how much of PITA it is to pull the engine. alot of work so many damn connectors and i'm glad i didn't care about the engine though cause i think broke alot of stuff on it in the removal process i remember the oil cooler lines being very hard to pull out.... nonetheless it was fun to do when i had no job for a short time when i was like 17

Pulling motors is much easier when you don't have any emmissions crap, etc.

I put EVERYTHING back on the 91 when I put in a new motor. That was a pain. I think that I could remove my motor in an hour. :tounge:

Which questions are you answering?





An hour sounds about right if you seven is stripped pretty good.



Has any one every swap there n/a diff to a TII for the fun of it? :smilewinkgrin:
