thats a good plan

im going to start removing the engine tomorrow. then i can break it all down and see how bad things are.

Well the engine ready to come out, just need a hoist.

Thats gonna be my issue as well... gonna neeed an engine hoist... tearing it down to get it out is gonna be easy and quick lol...

I don't have one I just man power it out... kidding


Check your local renter place, I was able to rent one for 25 dollars for a days use.

well since i will not be living in Colorado after this summer (USAF) i still want to run the Pikes Peak hill climb which should be possible since i get 30 days of leave each year. Therefore, i think i might get the Turbo II prepped for the riggers of Pikes Peak. Which would translate well to regular tracks well. No serious off road. Should be a perfect fit.

Any new to add man need my fix for rally rx7 info.

I still want to convert my rx7 to awd just can figure out what trans to use or what front axel etc I could use.

Dose any one know if there's a awd car that the whole suspicion setup bolts to the sub frame or most of it. like how a mustang2 is, every thing bolts to it or...if I could find a awd car that has a sub frame like a stock fb has. On thing bolted to the shell is the show towers. The reason I say this is cause I wouldn't have to worry about making all the brackets and locating them for the control arms. I know it wouldn't be as easy as bolting a fc sub frame to a 1st gen but I do have to cut out sections and box my frame rails any way dam rust. Screw it I'll start a thread seeing if I can get help getting pics of awd front end setups. Would be awesome if I could just use a Subaru subframe and trans found a adpater to mount a rotary in a subie so that would help alot.

You just resurrected a 2 year old thread.
I think this project is dead in the water.
I'm closing this thread for now.
If there is a good reason to reopen it, PM me or any other mod / admin.
