Rb26 Into Fd3s?

[jammy_uv]

the rx with supra engine is built by SP engineering and the 4 rotor is named the 26b like the three rotor being called the 20b - imagine the 26b with twin turbos.....whoa! wonder if there is enough space - sum1 shud build one in uk jus for kicks. lol

don`t think it would the skybus engine produces more torque. needed to get  the big bruisers moving


sure someone will put me wrong on here!!!:eek:

the rotary engine is lighter then the RB lump wouldn\'t this help make it faster?

Yes but the Skyline is still a much heavier car than the FD dude, so more to push without so much torque :Laugh

Is this the yellow SP Engineering RX that ive seen pictures of without a bonnet on?  It has an RE Amemiya smoothed rear light cover.  

Always wondered what that engine was!

yeah thats the one - but having a 3.0 litre engine in such a light car wil make it very heavy ended and through the balance right off - they must have just built it as one of there demo models -

they have also built an rx7 13b rotary using twin hks gt2835 turbos which was pushin some good power. that would be good to see in action - bet they had a lot of headache to build the car on those turbos using a twin setup. Wonder how they built the manifold to find space to build it like that!?

Thats what I`m planning on doing in a few years when I get enough money. Space is the biggest issue, I have thoughts on how to get round this though. Just a pipe dream at the moment (R26b fund = £0) but I have done a fair bit of research

do you want to take away the heart of the rx7 (rotary),  answer: yes i bloody well do! it keeps going pop. fed up with rebuild costs.

go for a V8 then instead of a RB26 a lot cheaper a lot more torque and not as long as the skyline engine and the power pontential is a lot more, a modern american v8 will put out 500hp in NA form and an easy 1000 when charged

If you are in the mids then pop over to Craigs in Birmingham (tinker27) he has a 7l LS1 (in the region of 400lb torque at about 2k I think) and has done a handfull of conversions now for customers. The LS1 is all alluminium, comes with a 6 speed box, sound the bollox and gives good mpg too. Worth thinking about and a proven conversion.

Im sorry to say that.... i would haved changed my 13b rew anytime for this swap... ONLY 13b rew... 20b would have been another story...:3gears-rh :InLove

Got to give it to that guy its an awesome swap really well done!

But yes Half bridge Ported 20B with a GT47 would be soooooooo coool
