Rear end??
How hard would it be to change the gears in my 1987 FC that is an automatic and put gears in it from a 5 speed rx7.

I did it a couple weeks ago, just swap the whole subframe from a 5-speed and it makes it easier.

If you do it you should also swap out the speedo-worm gear from a 5 speed tranny to keep the speedo accurate. This is only a few extra minutes work.
