AE86 3 Rotor

[Dr Wankel]

Greetings! I was a RX7 owner. I was thinking about transplanting a 20b on a 85 RX7 (1st gen). I also own an SR5, i want to put my 3 rotor into it. I have seen a video of a AE86 blasting thru a highway. I cannot find anywhere the details of that conversion. Anyone out there done it? Or knows any links with some info on the actual conversion?

Thanks!

The only thing missing from that video is "Bohemian Rhapsody" blasting in the background.

I always get a chuckle out of that video, watching 3 buddies yell, scream, and laugh their asses of in a tiny little car.

its gonna take a custom subframe, plus a lot of other fabbin for this conversion(tranny mounts, custom drivetrain ,chassis reinforcement, etc).Hope you're rich.

Who knows Which Voption this iz?

My quad-rotor86 will be done shortly. I'm gonna pull up to a cop. And then smoke em in every gear

If i really wanted to i can make the crx rear wheel drive and mid mounted. plenty of room in the hatch and uber weight distribution. And yes, i do have the money to do this.

Id gladly take an aw11, but hey anyone into racing should never argue the "practicality" of automotives without a brisk back hand to the face

Turbo Upgrade:

I recently bought a RX-7 91 model non-turbo. I have been searching the web for turbo upgrades for a non-turbo RX-7. Is there anyone who can give me some info on this?

Thanks,

Not rich, but i have a friend that does fabrication. Excellent work.Sometimes its not how fat your wallet is , but how long you can strech your cash, knowing the right people helps. I figured its going to take a lot of work. I saw the Best Motoring , Battle a 10,000 RPM,s. The gent from Hot Staff transplanted a S2000 engine with 6 speed tranny and all. I am just hopping that i dont have to cut too much on the tranny tunnel. Definetly a custom drive shaft with the small list of things you mentioned. He listed the price for all that work at 4.4 million yen. That is a lot.

[TeamSLIPdrifter]

4.4 million yen..... isnt that like 4000 dollers?

TeamSLIPdrifter 4.4 million yen..... isnt that like 4000 dollers?

no 1,000,000 yen equals about 9700 dollars

so 4.4 mill yen equals around 42680 dollars!!

Yes sir. But if you watch the video, the vehicle was very impresive. By the way, that price quoted does NOT include tires and rims.
