MY 13B-RE Fd single turbo build(standing up for the Rotary) lots of pics
In the midst of a world of RX-7's with V8's, im standing my ground and keeping my swap Rotary. Thats the point of owning an RX-7, because of its unique motor and body design.
Although i have thought bout the V8 swap(ls2 swap), espcially after riding in my friends LS1 fc(making 462 to the wheels). I love rotaries to much to do that. dont get me wrong, V8 RX's are fun and fast. but Rotary= PURE AWSOME. so here we go. My plan is build a Great FD that is track ready, yet streetable and looks great. I plan on tracking the FD atleast 2 times a month. I want to prove to People that Rotaries are as, if not more Reliable than piston motors. my Goal was to make 380hp at 11-13psi, but after more research on the GT35R, ill be making more than that:001_005: The Chasis: 93 RX-7 FD3S Base model. Silver with black interior. no sun roof. 90k miles on the chasis. Tokico whites with neuspeed springs. the Chasis has been sitting since 2000. close to 10yrs..... I plan on painting the car a purple. still have not decided what shade to go with yet. The break down of my Set up: of what i have and what im going to get.
Fuel set up:
Turbo set up:
Exhaust Set up:
Oil cooling:[LIST][*] custom Dual oil coolers (from JRX rotary) Intercooler set up:
Managements Ecu, boost:
Also plan on running Water/meth injection Chasis(things im going to get):
suspension: im still not sure what coilover set i should get... Wheels: Enkei RPF01's 17x9 +22 245/40/17 17x10 +18 275/40/17 (super aggressive fitment :D) Interior:
