I have been thinking about a LS1/LS2 S2000 for a bit. I have been very frustrated at the way these cars retain their value. So, I have started thinking about a late model Rx7. In my research, I came across a thread which contains some very nice fabrication and is presented very well with pictures and explanations. I thought some of you fellow enthusiasts would enjoy:

Oh BTW. The FC/FD with an LSx swap is easy. You only need the following: (From memory, I may of forgetten somethings)
-LS1/T56 tranny/ LS1 wiring harness n ecu/ LS1 Camaro acessies (pwr str, a/c, abs, ect) -Custom driveshaft, usually a modded C4 vette shaft works. -FC Turbo II rear end (strongest rear end ever built by mazda) -Custom exh and intake, along with bigger radiator. -Battery relocation to a storage bin helps for engine bay room and weight distribution -Walbro 255 fuel pump, SS lines and aftermarket FPR is a good idea as well I'm sure I'm forgetting some things, I'm pretty tired. End of story, yes it's a killer swap, but I'm just weird and like my rx7's to have triangles. That's what makes the 7 the 7. -------------------- NASA/SCCA RX-7....currently under the knife
