This picture takes me back to the days of dial up Internet and learning what a boner is for, lol.
All that being said, if this guy I was talking to would have come through with an adapter plate, I'd seriously be working on bp swapping a (insert any year) rx7 to boosted bp(maybe even b6t) power.Ian Boyd- Bellingham, WA (click vehicle to view)

there's someone selling TII adapter plates on MT.net for like $430 I guess, they also make SR-Z33 6-speed adapters apparently. also, there's a dude on ZT who swapped a B6 from a Miata into George Marstanovic's old FC, it is rad as hell.sigpic

I'll have to get over and check it out. Maybe he just didn't respond to my pm and I missed his thread.Ian Boyd- Bellingham, WA (click vehicle to view)

for $430, i'd just throw an FE3 or F2T in instead. There's transmissions already out there that will bolt to either of those motors, and all you have to do is figure out a rear mounting point.
And really, that's all that's stopping you from putting a Miata trans in an RX7 anyways. I wouldn't even dick with an adapter unless it was to run a TII. And if the adapter is really that much, i'd just find another motor that WILL attach to a TII. I've bought CARS for $430 or less that ran and drove.

it's kinda secondhand info, I haven't seen the thread, but apparently it's a group buy? so like the more people that buy them, the cheaper they'll get or whatever- the SR plates are only like $200-something.
only reason I even know about it is because a friend is thinking about putting a BP4W and TII trans in his 4WD Protege...
also, Ian- E153 adapter + R154 would be even stronger than a TII, though it would require a little more effort/fabricationsigpic

True on all accounts everyone. Like I said, fortunately it didn't happen. The last thing I need is one more project. I think I'll be happier with the Subaru 914 Frankenstein. Still gotta keep working on the pro4wd and I haven't really gotten to the Gtx yet lol.
Plus my brain has been pondering a mid mount boosted kl setup for a 323 or mx3. Rear Suspension would utilize a tube frame cradle structure and have the miata control arms mounted to it. The miata hubs/spindles would interface nicely with the drive train. There's more in my head but it's hard to type on a phone
