S4TII swap not an option?

[Max777]

/\ You know, that is a good idea for someone who has been an owner for a while, and gotten to know what it's like to be a rotorhead, but maybe it isnt such a good idea for someone who's just jumping into it? I think that the TS will enjoy their N/A just fine, and after they get to know their car well, they can go turbo? A lot of people complain that the FC is slow, but after driving my moms huindai, any sportscar is fast! Also, my vert is faster than a friends auto 944! (althrough that's not saying much )

Personally, I am going the N/A route so I can learn how to drive and not kill myself in the process,

If you're staying NA i'd rather go with an atkins type B rebuild kit instead of the RA, but it's your choice, definately get the upgrade seal springs though.

Make sure you clean everything properly
Change all coolant hoses, flush your oil cooler and radiator(professionally), change your waterpump and thermostat(OEM thermostat only, no aftermarket POS, buy it from the dealer!!!! or you will kill your engine) while it's still easy to do, buy new stainless oil cooler lines if the old lines look worn.

Also look into cleaning your injectors and changing the wiring connectors for them as well.

After that look into a Racing beat suspension package, poly bushings and koni sport/yellow shocks, with camber/caster plates and a rear camer adjustment bar.

is there any difrences between the s4 and s5 short blocks good or bad
no motter what im going to use the 5 rotors for the higher comp
Race rotor bearings, 3 window bearings in stationary gears (would these come in the rebild kit normaly)
FD front oil pressure regulator spring, rear FD oil pressure regulator(will do)
Streetport(will do)
S5 NA Intake manifold (what would be the advantig over the s4)
6 port sleeves removed (um can some one explan this)
VDI wire open (can some one explane this)
RB Header to exhaust of your choice (i was looking at there rase vershin)
RTEK or some other sort of tuning tool (whats RTEK can you lenk me to info on this)
No need for an RX-8 E-Shaft in a mostly stock build (so no Rx8 E-shaft?)
aluminum flywheel
act street clutch (would like to pick up a used clutch and flywheel together for right know just a decent light weight flywheel and a up graded clutch ACT or exady dont want to spend 400 bucks thin tern around and end up swaping in a TII tranny and what not perfer git one cheep used but still in decent condshen no puck clutchs tho)



the rebild kit im looking at is a basic stock rebild kit and im opting for up graded springs i was told the up graded seal were to touf and could eat up the rotors or somthing like that hears the link to the kit im looking at
http://www.rotaryaviation.com/overhaul_kits.htm

this is not my first motor rebild altho this is my first rotary rebild

do you thank the stock injecters will be fine for this bild im hoping thay will be

as fare as suspension not a big thang right know but im looking i gess i eather want a full race coil over set up or a decent set of struts with a set of eibock pro kit and a caber caster kit

[Phoenix7]

well, if you plan on acting crazy then yeah, start NA to prevent death and increase power later. If you can control urges to act silly then I don't see how a stock S4TII would be less safe than an NA. It's not about being fast or slow. It's about power-to-cost ratio for me.

-Max.

the reson why im wanting a loger brake kit is becouse this car isnt just going to be a car i take out and joy ride in this car is going to be seeing Auto X corses and highway 421 and the dragen probly some to i would like to have that eatra little bit of braking power if at all posoble and i perfer using factry parts from outher cars becouse if somthing fucks up you can always go to advanc and have it in the next day but if i can up grade it i will mostlikly go with brembo rotors, hawk pads, and SB brake lines and call it a day

Mainly looking for decent-to-low in power. i know its a rotary but i dont want to sit there coming out of a turn waiting to a turbo to spool

I asked if it was an option and I have yet to experience the problem you're mentioning about lag. Ever. Maybe if you slap on a GT35 or something bigger.

Then why are you trying to waste money on big brake kits and stuff you don't need or EVEN KNOW it NEEDS?

With an N/A, you will come out of every corner waiting for a turbo to spool. Only it will never happen.

IMHO, deep groove race bearings aren't required at all. In fact, I wouldn't even change the exisiting bearings in your engine unless they are trash. For what you're doing, money could be better spent elsewhere (unless you require them due to damage)

Good luck with your build
