small block ford or chevy...way cheap to build and swap in and you can build them to make massive power relatively easy. A friend of mine had an LS1 from a camaro he had with a TH400 trans. It was extremely quick. Just my opinion but it is a little biased.

3 rotors!!!! 20b ftw!!!

but seriously, LSx are relatively cheaper and easier swaps to do on an FC shell as oppose to the other swaps...

What kind of budget are you working with?

LS1 swap is going to be around 5K
3 Rotor your looking upwards of 15K+
RB, 2JZ and Titan motor will all need custom oil pans, and mounts. IDK how long the RB and 2jz are but they might fit between teh firewall and rad support.

Me Id do LSx. Best bang for the buck. BTW I have a 7 waiting on a LS motor :ninja: :D

if its a cheap budget,a 350/LT1 would be ALOT cheaper,u can get a engine for $1500 or less,hell i have a 94 vette LT1 sitting in my garage...planning on going in my car whenever i get a ECU and harness

what about the 3.0 dohc v6 out of the HD (92-96) 929, its a solid 200hp/200tq motor, and is very very well built internally for boost. it would be a real fun car in Na form, a cheap swap, and a first as far as i know. And i know the HC(88-91) 929 shared the same Auto tranny as the FC. and had a rare 5spd option. But it would be nice to see another mazda motor in there..

They don't offer a 2JZ swap kit for the FC yet.

I have the 2JZ swap kit for the FD.

Or rather, I just traded it for a 13B-RE motor that Lethal is currently swapping into my FD....But yeah.

I'd say go V8 or go 13B-RE. Both are easy and fairly inexpensive...out of the choices you listed at least.

Everything else you listed will cost you roughly $6k in motor and parts...Hell, the 2JZswap.com kit for my FD was $2,500 alone. $_$

If you have money to burn, then I'd say just 3-rotor the biatch. 2JZ will end up costing you WAY more than its worth in custom fabrication. IF you still want to do it, talk to my brother Dave at Lethal.

The correct question is: How much money do you have in your budget to do the swap? That will determine what you will be able to do. Anything else is just talk on a forum. How much money do you have set aside to do this swap - and I mean complete with fuel system, rear end, tranny, ems, etc?

well right i have 2 savings accounts.. and both together i have around 8k.. but im still going to be saving more im just wanting some options..

i dont want to do a swap and then look at another car putting out more power than me and have the same exact swap.. you know

If you can get V6 and V8 parts super cheap then go with a small block chevy. a potent 350 setup can be made for very little money and be reliable as well. I dont know much about rx7s but what are your plans for the rearend. what will the current diff support and what are your options if the diff wont support enough tq.?

His stock diff won't handle more than about 300tq - if he babies it. He will have to upgrade it.

8K won't get you very far. Look to put in either a SBC, SBF, or 13BT/13B-REW.
Once you get the motor in, and running, you can look at upgrading the setup. Pay attention to the cost of the EMS and fuel system, as well as the tranny, and diff. These things add up quickly. You should probably look at buying an older race car, and swapping the parts over into yours.

A 20B would run you about $17K to do it right.

DieselNuts
12-24-2008, 04:13 PM
the reason the LSx is so popular is because they are light, reliable and powerful. The aftermarket is FLOODED with go fast parts for them. The reason why rotary lovers frown upon the idea is because it throws off the 50/50 weight distribution, but that can be fixed for the most part with a properly setup suspension. You speak of a 454 BBC...that will def. throw the weight distribution off...

I still say either the 13B-RE w/ upgraded single, like I'm running.

Or just go LS1.

The RE has larger intake and exhaust ports, which in our case, will help give better torque and low end power.

Courtesy of my brother Dave @ Lethal. Taken during my 13B-RE swap process...

13B-REW:

http://i43.photobucket.com/albums/e356/YoshiFD3S/littleportsonREW.jpg

And here's the 13B-RE:

http://i43.photobucket.com/albums/e356/YoshiFD3S/allportsonRE.jpg

About 10mm larger.

Aside from the intake manifold, even the intake and exhaust ports in block itself are larger and shaped differently.

Stock for stock, the REW was rated with slightly higher HP...but running the same setup on this RE motor, as was on the REW before it....I'm SURE it will put it out more power.

My brother got it running yesterday, and says he'll get it tuned this Saturday for me.

I'm telling ya man, the REW is so unreliable to. When it comes to rotaries, they're the worst. The 13BT that comes in the Turbo II's is by far the most solid. I owned an '88 Turbo II with a Series 5 longblock and Series 4 mechanical oil-metering pump. It was ROCK solid, and never gave me issues.

Flippin' REW in my first FD...piled with my lack of knowledge at the time...yeah, it was a nightmare. You throw on a single turbo, Power FC, and all the standard supporting mods...then sure, you're doing fine...but again....why??

I think I've made my point.

Don't swap in an LS1. What about the soul of the car?
Who cares if it is an "aluminum motor" (or whatever that means!)? I don't give a rats ass about what the scales say! My infallible logic tells me that a v8 has to be heavier than God's gift to the automotive world, even if there is hard evidence to disprove it!
Sex Appeal? I MUCH prefer the sound of a 2 stroke gardening tool to the gross, overly masculine ruckus of one of those big nasty v8s.
Reliability? If you don't have the desire to treat your car with the love and devotion (rebuilding the motor every 40k miles) that it deserves, then you shouldn't own the ultimate Japanese supercar! A true enthusiast should enjoy making sweet, sweet love to his car with each rebuild.
Performance? Who cares if you can throw a $200 cam in the car and pick up 100whp? I think that's cheating.
LS1's suck!
Be original, because originality is what it is all about!
I've considered building my own car out of spoons and paper mache just so I can be original.

Don't swap in an LS1. What about the soul of the car?
Who cares if it is an "aluminum motor" (or whatever that means!)? I don't give a rats ass about what the scales say! My infallible logic tells me that a v8 has to be heavier than God's gift to the automotive world, even if there is hard evidence to disprove it!
Sex Appeal? I MUCH prefer the sound of a 2 stroke gardening tool to the gross, overly masculine ruckus of one of those big nasty v8s.
Reliability? If you don't have the desire to treat your car with the love and devotion (rebuilding the motor every 40k miles) that it deserves, then you shouldn't own the ultimate Japanese supercar! A true enthusiast should enjoy making sweet, sweet love to his car with each rebuild.
Performance? Who cares if you can throw a $200 cam in the car and pick up 100whp? I think that's cheating.
LS1's suck!
Be original, because originality is what it is all about!
I've considered building my own car out of spoons and paper mache just so I can be original.

i think you my friend have changed my mind... should i reall just stick with a rotary? yes or no? i mean a 3 rotor is pretty expensive but i could build a 13B to just as fast a V8 right?

how are you going to drive the car (staight line, autox, road course, rally ect)??? If you have the money then do the rotary. If you want to keep a lean budget and are only concerned about straight line speed then a V8 is definately the way to go.

LS_ is first choice,

second choice would be a big block 7.4L 454 out of a late 90's suburban ^_^

could probably find one of those pretty cheap, we have an N/A 20b at the shop. 300ft lb torque with no turbos.....and the wankel guys won't chop off ur head :D

we're gonna do a 2j in an FD very soon too, so whatever motorset you can afford you can call and have Kyle do ur fab stuff

what do i need to do in order to get 500hp out that motor?
Some mild head work and mild came will get you 450 rwhp. A more aggresive cam and heads will get 500 rwhp, but will not be as street friendly. A stock ls1 can get you deep in the 11s on motor if set up right and still be hell in the twisties.

Shop around on ls1tech. You can get a complete pull out motor, 6 speed tranny, wiring harness and pcm if you are patient for about 3-4k. A good used cam and some worked over stock heads for 500-800 bucks.
