It would be best to order a JSPEC S4 (87-88) turbo engine for it with a harness.

If you would like it rebuilt i can do that for you, and maybe others, have it shipped here first, someone will rebuild it, then someone will send it to you.

You should call it the mach 7

Not my thing, but I definitely respect the time you've put into it .

One question though, how do you plan on opening the hood, as well as getting the headlights up?

you need to incorperate some downforce in the front, looks like a boat, high speeds will suck in that thing

This is hilarious, but inspiring at the same time. There's a small chance I'll have the opportunity to buy another RX-7 soon, and if it would be cheap to get running decent I would so consider doing something like this. hahaha, awesome. I mean it could totally fail and fall apart, but I'm intrigued nonetheless as it has unique appeal and potential.
