They where. Kev converted to a FD gearbox but I\'m not sure if its a straight fit.

Thanks again for the replies.

Another question.
How does the cosmo perform on the track?
Is it heavier then the FD? handle better or worse?

I understand where you are coming from Sadgoth and I wouldnt want to import the car to just ruine it but if it doesnt perform as well as the FD balance/weight wise I am afraid it would have to be done. Plus look on the bright side, there will be loads of parts for cosmo owners.

Thanks you so much FD3UK for the pictures. at least I get the idea on how its done.

do the ports have to be exact size? and do they have to be same size to the exhaust ports?

Anyhow back to the question. Is cosmo good for track or drag or not?

Thanks for taking time replying to this thread.

well the FD is much more suited for circuit work eg the lower weight better braking, so would kill a cosmo round a track given the same driver skill.
The cosmo is much heavier and will handle worse then the FD on circuit, you will need to put some decent money into coilovers into the cosmo to make it handle like an FD.
I think a Cosmo would be a better drag idea then circuit should be quite stable in a straight line and will be different and stand out from the crowd at the strip then the many FD

Thanks.

Blitzboy:
What do you think is better for track, fc or the fd rx7?
Will do the cosmo as a drag car.

"out of the box" the FD is a better track car it was designed to be more focussed as a drivers car and a little more raw. Thing is for a well set up FD you would pay more than for a well set up FC so it\'s really up to you.
