Noooo, please don't tell me there r pistons under the hood of that rx7 :badjob: (P.S. we really need a thumbsdown smiley, mods)
EDIT: Ur TA looks good tho, that's my fav body style/year/gen of TA (idk, if it's yearspecific or what, in reference to all the slashes)![]()
BUILT NOT BOUGHT .........
It's very easy to tell the difference between a rotary engine and a piston engine rx7 without even looking under the hood. I'll show you how.......
Rotary rx7
v8 rx7
Clearly that rx7 drove into that driveway under its own power, a tow truck wouldnt have dropped it that close to the house.
lipped gt-cs are the sex damn you previous owner for not having lips on my gt-cs

rotary makes easier and more power than a cylinder engine
Rotarys are so great that theyre commonly used in cars all over the world..... oh wait...........
oh well, i bet if someone produced a rotary car in todays market it would be a road conquering beast of automotive technology and would have people standing in line to buy one......
oh wait......
There's plenty of i4s KILLING rotaries on the track, bringing 6 and 8 cylinders into the argument justs makes it laughable, we might as well start comparing machine guns to plastic forks.
Rotary is a novelty engine and soon to be a thing of the past. There's currently one rotary car in production and its a complete failure with the engine being recalled.
rotary makes easyer horse than cylinder motors.Rotarys are so great that theyre commonly used in cars all over the world..... oh wait...........

only that it lacks the people who knows how a rotary works, let alone, how to work on one.
rotary isnt economy friendly, i give you that.
Sinfix is funny lol
LS1 fd's are cool but you spend a lot of money to only have 50 more horsepower.
In my opinion a ls1 FD is a poor mans vette they even kind look the same.......
Ballerness is like butter you just can't blob it in one place you got to spread that shit around

When using this type of car for racing having all your power up top helps a lot rather than have it all at the bottom meaning the car is more agile.
But for every day use it would be great power in any gear really makes any car fun to zip around in.
And either way the ls1 fd can turn 1000000000x better than the drag king F bodies
Just depneds on what you want to use it for.

My buddy bought a twin turbo rx-7. Motor went out in a month and it was cheaper to do an ls1 then rebuild it. He had both and he loves the ls1 version better. I love the look of the rx-7 but I just don't trust the motor.
it's no bandwagon. ls1 is a great engine that fits in almost anything you want to put it in, in addition to having endless aftermarket support. Rx7 is an amazing automobile that just so happened to come with a boat anchor under the hood. Joining these 2 glorious automotive creations together just seems like the right thing to do. ls1 is probably the most popular and well rounded engine on the market, if it is a "bandwagon", get used to it, because people are gonna be putting ls1s in pretty much any and everything for years to come. i mean........... come on!!!!
even the ford guys cant resist.
vtec??
boner.
look at that junk in the trunk
When my sr20 kicks the bucket, i'll be going to an ls1 myself.
i can see you are mis informed! and have only read or heard of the troubles of rotary cars. The rotary motor is like no other, and just a great experience to drive! A ls1 swap makes sense in a 240 because LS motors are so cheap compared to the overpriced SR right now. Of course rotary have their issues especially in their early years, The renesis had its issues also, but it was from silly minor problems that caused bigger problems like the starter being too small, and causing the cars to flood because it would barely start the car, and a flawed water pump design. Those issues were no problems with the renesis its self just problems, that could cripple any motor from the factory. nothing wrong with the ls1 tho!!
if you cant appreciate the rotary, i feel sorry for you!!!
Overpriced SR??? whaaaa???? SRs practically fall out of gumball machines. I just stubbed my toe on one when i walked my dog.
If an ls1 swap makes sense in a 240, then its a no brainer in any rotary powered vehicle, because almost every engine that was ever put in a 240 or any other Nissan is a better platform than a rotary. i ***appreciate*** rotaries, theyre neat as shit and looking in an engine bay to see something the size of spare tire make power is cool.... however, anything that can be done with a rotary can be done cheaper, easier and with more reliability with almost any other platform.
The proof is in the pudding. Rotary will most likely be completely removed from production in the next 5 years... if that long.

The LS1 (or any Chevy performance motor for that fact) is without a doubt an awesome power maker; as with the RX7 being an outstanding platform. I just think its stupid to go outside the original manufacturing company to source more power.
"God" wasn't on vacation; he had it right with what platform the LS1 was going into.
