    Woah, freaky. Do not want.

    Rotary please.


    Although it looks interesting.

    ^^ Yeah, I drew a frame of a man running on each fan blade. That is him running at idle

    wow...........a bit of searching reveals it's a DOHC 2.5 Liter V6 sold in the enfini MS9(J-Spec Mazda 929) as the cheapest engine option between 1991 and 1993. It made 159hp. Any advantages to using this engine?

    more torque? i dont know... the guy that put it in the 7 said he just swapped it in.. becuase his rotary died.

    It woudl be nice to see the DOhc 3.0 JE from the 9 in a rx7... but it woudl probrably be goin backwards...as far as performance.. but would be nice to look at!

    Weird, the MS-9 3rd generation (one before the one offered with that V6) had a "Luce Royal Classic" trim edition as well that was offered with either a 3.0 liter Turbocharged SOHC V-6 or an N/A 13B. Iguess it swaps in easy, but it's a JDM engine, and obviously not as great as that FC's stock 13B, otherwise the top of the line model would be offered with a turbo verson OR an N/A 13B.

    the luce royal classic came with the 13b turbo also, and the turbo sohc 3.0v6, and a Sohc NA v6. not sure on the years.. i would look it up but im on my way out...lol but the 9 is said to have the same auto tranny as rx7's, motor swaps between the two are very common in NZ, and really really easy so i hear.
