Hello,

I am just other rotary freak with car RX-7 S4 N/A FC GXL 2+2 . Bought this car a month before, but never have time to show to you guys. A car is in non working order, there is a lot work on car. In may country there is about seven rx-7 all generation models, so hard to get a used parts. .

One picture of car..



One picture for now and many more for later, having some problems with internet i cant put more pics today.

 

Welcome

 

good luck w/ the build. i hope u change the wheels. they are just god awful painted like that

 

they're not that bad.... i like the gold on silver look.

 

Thanks to all...


Here is more pics of a car...



Tell me, it is a 12A motor ? or something else ? because i have carb on motor..









I have many pics of a engine, car etc. if you need some pics of different angle to found out what engine it is i will put a image...

 

oh god its one of those weird foreign FCs.

I'd swap out a usdm engine and wiring harness and coils/igniter etc.

 

Wow I've never seen a carb'd 13B (stock) in an FC before. Could you get parts shipped from the U.S? I'm sure some people here would gladly hook you up with some S4 N/A parts for really cheap.

 

has 12a alternator waterpump ignition carb...

bunch of left over FB prts sold in foreign countries to make up for lost profit from useless parts.

 

And it got a distributor too? How are you guys sure that it isn't a 12A?

 

Im not absolutely sure, but youll need the usdm S4 NA waterpump housing./alternator intake manifolds/TB/tb adapter.

MAF, pressure sensor, ignition coils, ecu, wiring harnes probably for the engine and the body of the car as well.

injectors and well, thats probably it.

 

Welcome.... That is one weird setup... Different anyway .......... Cant wait to see how it turns out. Whats on the driver side stut tower with the wire?

 

I will look on ebay for parts, shipping cost is very high but for mazda rx-7 is not problem ..

I was search on forum and found out there is engine code near oil filter, but i dont have a pics near oil filter, except this.. Is that a engine code .. a 12A..



I have other parts, rad, pipes , filter box ( very strange, pics soon ) etc...

 

There was never a 12A on a 2nd gen.

The S5 foreign models had an S4 engine/gauge cluster etc. More left over parts.

 

i will **** my pants if that really says 12a.

I cant believe it was that bad, hah.

 

Well the body doesn't look bad, and the interior is actually pretty nice.

You may very well want to do a T2 swap on it. Swap out all of the harnesses, perhaps go straight to a standalone, if possible...

i am very disappointed to see a 12a in it. However, you must work with what you have right?

If you need any help feel free to pm me asking questions.

 

Ok, i am now thinking perhaps a 12a was put in there by someone else? Or something weird, as it still has the S4 na 13b resistor pack and variable resistor in the engine bay. Also what appears to be most of the S4 NA engine harness laying there.

WTF

 

Engine swap mabie?

 

TehMonkay, thank you , you are more than help..

Yes, plan is are T2 swap, high efficiency turbo setup with standalone, cooling setup ( here are high temps ), track car build.

Today, I will go to car than i will have more pics.. If you need some pics, tell me what need to shoot for better ind.

 

Nice

 

well is what i would do first, for the swap at least, is to try and get a set of usdm wiring harnesses and all of the electronics that go with it. Convert to the us coils, and get the engine bay tidied up to drop a new engine into it.

I'm not sure if you've read up on it or not, the swap threads, but you'll wanna get the T2 rear end and axles and driveshaft.

Then i'd buy a Jspec turbo 2 engine/transmission and have the engine rebuilt with new apex seals and all new seal springs, upgrade the oil pressure regulators to the fd ones, change out the thermal pellet and the front and rear seals. This will give you a good start with a healthy engine.

I would then start trying to build the rest of the car from a standalone, as it seems as though it'd be a big hassle to wire a stock ecu of any sort into there.

 

I'm sure rotary shops are plentyfull in Croatia... He'd be better off learning how to do it himself.

 

Yes, that was in my mind.. First one healthy engine than mods.. Car will be stripped down to go to a bodyshop, respray than T2 swap.. But in same time build for track..

I reading this forum for many years, but now I have a car..


I am car mechanic ( honda mechanic, dont kill me ), so I will be rebuilding engine , car etc..

 

Ok, let say that is 12A engine in FC.. What need to change that engine works? ECU ( i will check ecu is now in car ) , wires, fuel lines etc... Engine mounts? gearbox mounts? is there a gearbox code to check to see is 12A or 13B gearbox? What else?

 

Now I have a clear picture of a engine code.. This will be my avatar..

 

It looked to small to be a 13b...
12a with rat turds for an avitar?
Good luck! 13b turbo is the way to go!!
