Help this FC n00b!
Hey all, I'm buying an 86 GXL for $800 and I was wondering how much it would be to do a complete TII swap. I can do the labor myself and probably just need someone to do the wiring for me. If there's any place that you guys know if where I can get the parts, please let me know. I am mechanically capable but I need to price this out before I decide. If it's too expensive I'll just stick with the NA for now and save up for a real TII.

Stronger drive train
better cooling
wiring is already there
bigger wheels and aero package

Ya know..... I actually bought one of those Initial D ZipZap's at Radio Shack because it was a micro, remot controlled FC!! I love the thing! I chase my cat everywhere with it. I have to repaint it black though to match my car!!!!
Here is my opinion... get the N/A for 800 bux... then see if rotary is really for you!! Then, get a TII with a blow motor for cheap and build THAT car up!!!
I'm not a big fan of the N/A TII swaps.. its a big enough pain modding a TII let alone doin all that other crap.
I fact, i whish i still had my 89 GTU as a daily driver, that car was a lot more fun, it wasn't as fast, didn't have the cool factor, but you got in it ans drove... i never did anything to it but replace the clutch and add a cool air box and it ran great. I just got tired of getting beat by mny third gen buddies all the time!!!! (one of them still has my number, but he's got 40K in his car!!!)
