mazdaenthused is in illinois and has a t2 that has been in a wreck up for sale. It's a donor car for a clean chassis if your up to the task. Find a clean NA from down south for < $1000, buy the t2 from mazdaenthused, and you have a powertrain swap to keep you busy all winter.

ya theres a guy on rx7 club selling a na with something about a water jacket that has over heating issues but 4rotorrocket advised against it due to the pain in the ***. heres the car i am still thinking about it because i could sell the tranny rearend engine maybe and make back what i spent on that car then do the swap but im still undecided.

Don't listen to a word 4rotorrocket says about these cars, he's kindof retarded.



the car looks like a decent deal, a bit of a clusterfuck, but under $1k not bad at all, especially if it is rust-free like the guy claims.



if you need help feel free to contact me, depending on how far you are from me (i'm in lisle/naperville area) I might be able to come out and give you a hand with it.



if you end up needing a rebuild contact me and maybe we can work out a deal.

im 15 and in arlington heights and am not sure what im going to do i want to get a project kind of car to keep me busy this winter but my dad said that when im 17 he will double what i have in my savings account so i could get a nice 7 or bmw, mb, 03 cobra. i think the 7 would make a nice first car, reliable, kinda cheap, quick, good handleing, its just a matter of if i want to spend a few thousand now and get something to work on or turn the 2-3 k into 4-6 but have to wait 2 years
