so i got my ct26 the other day and in a few months i'll be ready for the quick install. heres what im looking at for parts. ct26 rebuild kit, 87+ rx7 460cc injectors, blow off valve of some sort(havent decided what brand i want yet), electronic boost controller(also haven't decided on a brand), custom downpipe by yours truley, custom exhaust by yours truly(all tig welded stainless...), fmic and piping, and most likely the emanage for control, some misc. gauges, warlboro pump, and i plan on ceramic coating the stock 3s manifold. i know i know, "what about a clutch?" im not really concerned about it because with this setup i may, and i mean at most will be running 8psi. once that first snowy cloud appears the cars going in the shop and the engines getting pulled. from there on i will be doing a gt4 tranny swap, complete rebuild(not stock:) ), p and p, new cams, maybe new turbo, not decided yet, hopefully full standalone, nitrous(if i get a big turbo), and something for my soon to be bad traction. im thinking about fabbing up a trac-bar setup like the little hondas. im looking at a goal of about 14-16 psi when i do the full build. hopefully i dont run into any subframe issues. so if anyone has any suggestions they would be much appreciated.

So you are going to keep the 5s motor and fit the awd trans on there over winter?

Just a heads up. LOTS AND LOTS of grinding away at the block to clear the transfer case.

well if you want awd you have no other choice but to use the awd ones. Now if you want fwd I'd go for the e153 transmission.
