Hi my name is Ryan, I just recently purchased a 1985 Rx7 gsl light blue roller. Car needs some love and will be sent to body and paint shop soon. I'm a little hesitant to say that the car will be recieving a twin turbo lsx motor. I fully respect rotarys but I'm just not familiar with them at all. Plus having a ton of ls motors laying around makes it an easy decision. Anyways I've been having a hard time finding any good information on the web as far as front suspension upgrades and finding miscellaneous parts for the car. So figured I'd hit the forums.

The GM LS series of motors found in Camaro, Corvette. I have always wanted to put one in a rx7 make in a nice street strip car, something a little different and always enjoy a project.

Lol, it's one of those vulgar newfangled alloy things with reciprocating parts, you wouldn't like it, Dave :lol: I think it's easier to list the types of car that haven't got at least one LSx-conversion in their range than those that have!

Welcome in, Ryan. Any way of saving an RX is good with me, even using a V8. A Hemi would be preferable, but rather harder to fit of course :lol:
