stridertacticz Posted December 13, 2002 Share Posted December 13, 2002 What's the code on that RX-7 Engine? I'm thinking about getting a 1991 Mazda RX-7. Those damn cars are the best RX-7's, without a doubt. I still gotta fix that stripped nut on the back right rim on my '90 Accord. So can anyone tell me the code for the RX-7 Engine (turbo of course).

optional187 Posted December 13, 2002 Share Posted December 13, 2002 yeah i heard the 93's were best too..93's also seem to be the ones that everybody tunes. at least thats mostly what i've seen. a friend of mine was thinking about getting an rx7...then found out how much they cost and how much they cost to keep up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stridertacticz Posted December 13, 2002 Author Share Posted December 13, 2002 Rotary are good engines. 91 RX-7's dont cost that much, besides the fact that I'm gonna put a 3rd Generation 13B Engine inside of it. Once I get a 1991 RX-7, 3rd Generation RX-7's are like...too 'mainstream' (aka common) in motor hobbyist world. bleh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLontheDL Posted December 15, 2002 Share Posted December 15, 2002 it should be common for a reason. i could be wrong though but i believe the 93s are mostly modified do to adam saruwatari. its like, "if he can make his rx7 that quick, so can i" kinda attitude so that could be the reason why.. oh and uh.....let me move this thread real quick. shame on you other MODS!!

..SSR.. Posted December 18, 2002 Share Posted December 18, 2002 The specs on the third generation RX-7's are all the same. 93's are the most modified because they are the cheapest and easiest to come across. The engine code on the 3g7's is 13B-REW. You can drop another one of those in or go for the 2nd generation RX-7 which is a three rotor instead of two. Not sure what the engine code of them is, I think it is 20B-REW maybe. The three rotor motor swap is pretty popular for people who want to run fast 1/4 mile times in their 7. Try this site to find parts for both of the engines so you can see what you can do..... RX-7.com I would strongly advise that you read up on the history and engineering of the RX-7. I hate to see it when someone gets one and does not respect the car. The main problem with the 13B-REW is overheating. So please read up before you do anything.

optional187 Posted December 18, 2002 Share Posted December 18, 2002 yeah, the rx7's have always had the rotary. and the rotary has always been prone to blowing up...respect it and you should be fine though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EGRacer Posted December 18, 2002 Share Posted December 18, 2002 yea dont go crazy with blasting turbo and nitrous. only a little boost although the top secret RX-7 runs 15 psi of boost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
..SSR.. Posted December 19, 2002 Share Posted December 19, 2002 On racing fuel, and lots of mods, you can push 27 psi..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(Virgin)Si Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 Yah i dont know where you guys get your Rex information from but....let me clarify this for all of you starting from the beginning SA22-1st gen rx7 carb'd is a 12a/fuel injected 13b FC3S-2nd gen rx7 all fuel injected 13b/TurboII cars were 13bt FD3S-3rd gen rx7 twin turbo 13b-REW Cosmo Euno-13b-RE or a 20b now for differences in 2nd gen's it goes as follows, in the 86-88 models they were Series4 cars 89-91 were Series 5 therefore for you need a Series 5 13bt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VR17 Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 hey!! welcome to the board with doublepost!! impressive... my cousin has a 2nd gen rx7(nonturbo)...full kitted(such an ugly kit )ahem......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(Virgin)Si Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 Also if you're Swapping a 13b-REW into your 91 turbo2......DON'T!!!!! that is too much of a pain to do and you already have a turbo motor in the car so i would suggest yanking it out getting some porting work done (street port)IMO and some 3mm seals that is very boost friendly...if you're already doing the engine build take the initiative to upgrade the turbo system too. just make sure to get a front mount intercooler greddy sells a nice one. And SuperStreetRx7......do some more Homework before giving advice....93 model rx7's arent the cheapest and easiest to find 3rd gens are almost OVERpriced...i've seen non-running ones for 8 grand But atleast you knew 3rd gens were plagued with underhood heat issues so kudo's to you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(Virgin)Si Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 If he has a 2nd gen Rx7 how come you're showing a picture of a GP Sports Silvia kit.....Nissans and Mazda's dont have interchangeable body kits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S14Silvia Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 If he has a 2nd gen Rx7 how come you're showing a picture of a GP Sports Silvia kit.....Nissans and Mazda's dont have interchangeable body kits actually his sig. has a rps13 type x, and a s14 *edit*kouki (?sp). anyway, the 13b-rew is a good engine, its gotten a bad rep since no one thinks to do a radiator *gasp* instead of a boost controller. if you can find a rx7 that hasnt been modded, which is extremely hard, thats your best bet. i really like the body lines of the fc rx7's and they can be tuned to be extremely fast, however, the fd's seem to get more attention. as long as you do cooling stuff you can run a pretty fast time, a guy here has a 9 sec rx7 and only runs 15psi max.

So please read up before you do anything. you started off making sence but then you blew it by making up the story about the snd gen rx7's come with the three rotor. the three rotor engine was from the mazda cosmo please do some research before you post bullcrap facts.

..SSR.. Posted February 7, 2003 Share Posted February 7, 2003 Nevermind. My mistake, don't know why I thought they were 3 rotors. But BTW, my facts aren't BS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(Virgin)Si Posted February 7, 2003 Share Posted February 7, 2003 you question your own self on your facts because you were sure of the 20b code......added a REW at the end of it. So like they all said, do some research. Couldn't help to learn some things about your own car Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

optional187 Posted February 8, 2003 Share Posted February 8, 2003 it sounds like ssr just made a guess at the engine code...therefore making his facts a guess anyway, not bs. its not a fact if its a guess, get off his back...it was a guess. i'm guessing the chassis code on the rx7 is sk329. am i right, or is that bs?

S14Silvia Posted February 8, 2003 Share Posted February 8, 2003 this is kinda dumb, whenever ssr posts, people jump on him. seems to me it all started because he claims (i'm not sayin you wont ssr) to be building probably one of the baddest s2000's around. cut the kid some slack you dont need to jump on every post he does and criticize him or his soon to be s2000.

(Virgin)Si Posted February 9, 2003 Share Posted February 9, 2003 I never failed to read your comment. For someone who only replies with factual statements you should never be guessing or hinting at the answer. That just shows you didn't know EVERYTHING you claimed to. Furthermore, I wasnt jumping on him for anything cus I'm new to the forum and had to stress the importance of only stating the facts because what he was saying could have lead someone into initially knowing the wrong facts and in the worst case scenario buying the wrong stuff. So sorry for grievance, but I just wanted to set it right and clarify the Rx7 facts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
