Hi
let me quickly introduce myself; I'm Daniel, 23 and from the tiny country the Netherlands (europe). I came across this site and because I want the know more about rotary enginges, I joined. Hopy you guys can learn me some stuff.. anyway, I don't drive a rx-7 unfortunately. But I'm very happy with my 1997 mazda 323F (or Astina of you like). Click for pics So far some mods include C west style front Carbon wing side/rearskirts (not on the pic) bucket seats Sparco airfilter/harnasses/pedals/steering Underbody neons Tinted windows full JVC audio window tints anyway. I'm going for an engine transplant next year (the poor bugger only has a 1.5 16v) and I was thinking of of 3rd gen RX-7 block (B12 I suppose it's called?).. Can anyone tell If it's going to fit? It's a frontwheel drive (at the moment https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...>/rolleyes.gif ) |
hello
|
That is a bad ass looking mazda...You do know the Rx-7 engines are rotor engines right? You are gonna have to do alot of work to put it in that car...
Oh...and the 3rd gen is a 13b-REW |
welcome. the rx7 engine code is a 13b. it is 1.3l. na or turbo. it is a rear wheel drive engine. hope that helps so far. isnt b12 a honda engine?
|
b20 is the engin out of the CRV that is what your thinking of.

How it goes, enjoy your stay....
|
That is a nice looking car, so you plan to convert to rwd? Otherwise an rx7 motor won't work...
|
Thanx for the positive comments..
Work continues as we now planning to replace the suspension for airride airbags.. Should help on speedbumps and shows https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/happy.png Skirts still need painting however..Need to get that done first and the airride kit needs to be developed for the 323 so I'll be the first one in Europe probably.. If it CAN be done the car will be converted to rearwheeldrive (yes, I know I will be broke by that time https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub... ). If it won't work, pity but then it will have a 1.8 turbo making about 200BHP.. |
