      Wow, awesome swap. Fits in there perfectly too, not too far ahead of the front axle. I have a real soft spot for 1st generation RX's.

      Thank you.

        Wow wasn't expecting that. Great job! How light are those rx7s, I usually like the second gen rx7 over the first gen, but this ones pretty nice!

          How dare you!!!! 1st gen Rx-7 is my favorite car. I own 2. The swap idea is alright, just why did you have to remove the rotary. An Rx loses it soul when you remove the rotors. Plus the sound of a ported Rotary, OMG.
          Oh well, i suppose i cant do anything about it now. Good job!

            Even though this just stinks of a "me too" post I really love that. I can't believe how well it fits, or how fundamentally wrong that is. BRAVO!

              Haha sorry.. I'm not knocking on the 1st gen, just stating my preference. I have a MKII Supra, so I have a thing for cars with flip up lights ;)

                              That looks good, I have had a few first gen RX7's myself. What about morevpics of the swap? Does the cluster work and if so what did you do about making it all work together?

                                That is an insane car. One of the best ideas I've ever seen. Got any pics of it in action?
