I'm not familiar with the 3-cylinder renesis, which year were those produced?

geo metro was 3 cylinder.



I seriously doubt you are going to find an rx8 drivetrain "cheap". You would be better off to go with a t2, save some money get more hp. The 6 speed tranny really doesn't gain you a whole a lot.



The renesis is a 13b, same displacement as the 86 to 95 RX-7 engine. no cylinders.... that's the point.

a $400 dollar RX8 is gonna be worth just that $400. Don't waste your time looking for something like that, find a t2 or 13B-rew drivetrain and start from there.
