Sil1580

Well I was down at my japanese friends shop and came upon this interesting setup, I have seen a few in option and a few at the Tokyo Auto Salon But they actually had money to make them look great but this is just a regular guy and had the conversion done.






For you rotary guys here is a FC built with a solid axle Rear end (Ford 9") 2 rotor with a Thumper 88 turbo.

The last pic is a RX7 (FC3S) it is going to be bridge ported, Full Drag with the Thumper 88 powering it. He is looking to push 650WHP with a fully tubbed rear end should be pretty sick.

To clarify the tube sitting on the engine is the intercooler for thoes that don't know it will be over on the right side of the engine bay it is water to Air.
