What engine would you use in a hybrid rx7

[DR SCHNITZEL]

I want a 500hp standard looking mk1 mini, big rotary engine. ow shamone

Got a sportcompactcar mag with a Sr20 500hp swap fd3s and that looks tidy too

Don\'t go SR. trust me, the noise is not a pleasant one!
Good engines, just sound rubbish.

ive seen a cossie rx7 that looked good and went well.

I never understood the SR20 noise comments, I always thought it sounded good. Still not unusual for me to be in the minority :rolleyes:

I had a 180Sx and Silvia, SR20 sounds cack! IMHO.

Probably the 2.3 mazdaspeed 3 turbo engine 260bhp as stock is pretty much stock rx7 power anyway.
 
sack that anyway i\'d go 3rotor NA on individual throttles, loud as hell.

Was going to say this, Jamsport have upped the capicity to 2.5 and just supercharged it!!!!:eek

Anything Duratec, now i will run and hide:flamed

K20A all day.

I\'ve always wanted to drop an SR20 into an FC. Infact, I now have an FC and an SR20\'d PS13 Silvia on my drive, hmmmm
 
Yes the noise is utter garbage compared to a nice triple/quad rotor [infact F1 cars sound garbage next to a quad] - but for reliability and cheapness of tuning it\'d be an ideal choice for drifting.
If the budget was higher then a 1/2JZ and if there was room an LS series V8.

Don\'t do it Jord, shun the roots!
Although your Silvia would be mint with a rotary.

Yar, do it.
