Don't be a faggot of you want an ls car get a cheap corvette

>RX7

well yours is going to look like absolute dog shit and be tasteless as well while sounding like garbage

cliche swap

>S30

pretty cliche as well not unique but at least it wont be complete shit

are you mentally disabled? if i wanted a corvette, id go buy one. i want an rx7 that has balls. you obviously dont have a history of heavily modifying cars....there is no fucking way im going to spend the money to push mad power out of a gutless 1980's engine. Whether its an LS swap or something else, its happening. I have enough old JDM cars at my house right that have the original engines, and thats fine because i dont plan on pushing power through them.

>>17661938
nah, the whole point of this post is to avoid that. Ive built enough cars in my life to know not to even get started on the path unless the plan is clear. these cars a beautiful and a blast from the past if done right. I just need to know where everyone is getting these sexy ass lip kits. OEM cars are lacking.

are you trying to tell me the stock engine in these cars is more potent and cheaper to push 500+whp than swapping an LS? GTFO

I will if i can get the body to look similar to the fc in the op. That's the only thing stopping me.

Continue being awesome, and good luck with the project.

dude wtf are you talking about? in what world would i spend 10 grand!?!?!?!? you guys dont work on shit yourself and dont realize how cheap it is to do this kind of shit. I guarantee id be 3k all in on getting the drivetrain in and running. shit i might even do it cheaper than that. wake up dude.

I have 3 cars right now over 400whp and im experienced enough to know not to try and build a dependable, nasty engine out of a 30 year old 13b. have you found where people are getting these sick nasty lip/light body kits?

LS swap is just what you do when you dont like cars and have no knowledge of them

hey if he wants to waste his money on a worse engine thats on him

hes probably too stupid to listen to anyone

>>17662022
You put effort into your troll thread, so good job.
But to set the record straight, getting power out of a 13b isn't hard at all, neither is getting power out of a chebby 350. If I did have a 80s shit Vette I would probably vortec swap with carb blow through turbos. But you can get power out of the stock sbc if you are not cucked by emissions.

In the end though fire spitting 13b with ports the size of grapefruit will be coolest.

>>17662076
Do you even know how many timing chains those shitty engines had? 3. Three weak ads timing chains that broke at stock hp. The heads were aluminum and would shi t themselves if you can cheap gas. You're retarded and don't know anything about engines. Sage

dude i guarantee you havent built engines before or you wouldnt say this. it so SO FUCKING EXPENSIVE so fully build a shit engine to make real power reliably. ive done it myself and built these engines and its not worth the money when you can start with a real platform. i love these old small displacment engines but they are so limited man. they DO NOT make natural torque. you need more experience and youll understand this shit.

exactly. its like talking to a fucking wall. i feel like im the only person in this thread that actually builds their own shit, spends their own money and puts it where their mouth is to have these high performing low displacement engines. i know whats involved and what they capable of.

can a 13b make 500+whp? sure. can it do it reliably without being pushed to the limit and blow up? probably not, and im not spending my money to find out.

honestly i get it. he loves these cars or just the jdm cars in general and it hurts his feelings to know that there will be 2 less original FC's out there. gotta get over it. the world has moved forward and there are better options. not only that, you have to remember that swaps like this require a certain level of base knowledge and experience to complete. most people here probably cant even change a timing belt, let alone swap an engine that isnt even of the same manufacturer. they probably know theyll never be at that level and be able to do it so they just hate it and harp on people who can do it.

shit, i have an f20c in my garage from an s2000 i might throw in there. theres tons of options....the stock 13b is not one of them.

There's no point in getting an RX7 if you're going to LS swap it, just get something with an LS already in it. Literally just get a Corvette.

>>17662524
The reason people are getting mad at you is because you're doing the most retarded thing you can do with an rx7.

I'm sure you'll just write me off as another assblasted weeb but listen, don't buy a special snowflake car if you don't like it. We had a ls swapped rx7 show up to a meet one time and the other rotary guys literally laughed as him when he popped the hood.
>but much power!
The other rotary guys were making 600hp while Ls boi was making is than 400.
You're talking about spending 7,000$ minimum if your car Will be worth a shit on a kit that most car guys don't really like. A ls swapped rx7 is like a pretty blonde girl having 5 shitskin kids. It's technically ok but everyone thinks it's icky, and it's such a waste.

315/265 doesnt 'sound' like a lot, but believe me it is in these cars, especially when you remember that they have a 4.26 gear in it. i also dont have some shitty oversized turbo thta makes peak torque for 500 rpms, i have a properly sized turbo and have a fat powerband. this car, from a roll on the street, legit walks off from any new, non supercharged V8 production car ive seen. coyote mustangs look like theyre standing still, friend has a new corvette and is 5 cars back once i get out of 3rd. theyre really fun cars and worth boosting.

450whp requires forged pistons and i dont want to build this engine to that point. been there and done that on another car. only thing internally is ARP headstuds and thats good enough for this power level.

Do you have any videos? Clearly you have your dyno chart to back up your claims, but call me skeptical that your running away from a c7, even with some weight reduction. While they weigh more, stock they make roughly 100 more whp. I make around 390 (no dyno but proven time and time) and can't imagine a 315whp car beating me let alone badly. Not saying you couldn't beat them but for your power/weight compared to what you have beaten, seems way off to state "standing still" or "5 cars".
No hate or disrespect intended just curious.

>>17662650
i see your point and understand. thing is im a bit older and just dont care if other people dont like it. Ive built engines before and dont want to go through the trial and error of an old 13b. im also not to motivated to learn how to wrench on a new engine configuration if were being honest here. if LS boy was making 400, hes not utilizing the potential of that engine. it doesnt even have to be an LS, theres tons of different options. ive already had an f body GTA in the past and do not like them at all.

that said i see your point. ill probably do it anyways though. ive fallen in love with these things.

>>17662133
Jesus just get a 1uz and call it a day

>>17662817
i have a real quick vid i can post that will prove its real...but nothing of me running through gears.

the thing you have to keep in mind is that people think these V8's are fast because they rip off 12.0 1/4 mile times. they rip off these fast times because a quarter mile time is ENTIRELY dependent on the first 60'. literally. these cars rip off these good 60 foots because they are rwd and make a boat load of low end torque. if they got off the line like a fwd car theyd be running mid 13's and you wouldnt think they were that fast.

when you go from a roll, these cars are at a huge disadvantage, at least in the sense that they are not racing their best race, because they dont get to use that low end, sub 60mph powerband. from a roll its a whole different ball game and thats why i specified from a roll earlier.

i think they make 455 or so in stock from. take off 15% drivetrain loss and theyre right around 390 whp while im at 315. im likely in a lighter car, with more aggressive gearing, and i also do not have the same drivetrain loss they do being fwd. take 2 cars, one fwd, other rwd. same exact power, everything....the rwd car loses every time from a roll. it puts less power down on the road.

most people dont believe how fast a WELL BUILT turbo honda is until they see it in person. they are fucking fast man. my buddy makes 230 whp NA in his civic and he beats the same cars, not as bad as i do, but he does it.

315/265 in a 2700lb car with short gearing rips ass, trust me.

only vid i can post is when i was tuning it and couldnt figure out why the AFR was spiking so i made a vid for my buddy so he could see what i was talking about

https://youtu.be/WXeBHg2PqEI

>>17662645
no. i dont want a corvette. youre the 5th person to say this. i want corvette testicals in an RX-7 ball sack.

>>17662960
Sub 60 powerband? Huh? You do realize m7 gets to choose gear to be in powerband. C7s dyno around 400 at least. So still 3300lb car with 400whp vs 2700lb car with 315. The math doesn't add up to me.

What do you estimate your 1/4 trap mph?

>>17663017
doesnt matter though...i know you get to choose your gear, the problem is you dont get through them like a fucking raped ape at 80 mph like you do early on. these big V8's make more torque early...more than ANY honda ever will in their wildest dreams, and thats where the 1/4 mile time ends up so good. my buddy pulls mid 1.6 60' times in that corvette. id need slicks and a whole bunch of other shit to do that. a V8 racing a turbo honda from a roll is giving up their whole advantage. i admit theyre much faster to 60, after that its over and im reeling them in like a motherfucker.

he traps at 115 in that corvette. my trap depends on the tires used. the more traction you have= lower trap speed. more wheel spin= high trap speed. on steet tires i trap around 113 or so. a total back-half car. ive been drag racing for a long time and stubbornly stick with fwd imports.

you need to put the gearing in your math as well. gearing is almost as important as the actual power being put down. throw an F22, long geared trans in there instead of my h23 trans and this car is slow.

>>17663017
go and seek out a turbo honda making 300whp and race from a roll and youll see what i mean. im not a fanboy with hondas at all, but from a roll these cars ave a huge advantage if things are even close to being equal. most dont believe it until they see it. after i beat these domestics they think im making 500+ and its nowhere near that.

>>17663059
Yeah man not denying anything you say, just not the norm you see. I'm actually going to the local 1/8 track next week I hope. Never been to the strip due to my schedule. But familiar with how trap speed vs et plays out. If you lived near me I'd love to witness this machine from my car.
