Because Every Mazda RX7 Needs a Big Block LS1 Engine

This customer of ours decided to pick up some new shoes for his car.  Little did we know until he sent pictures that this was a serious machine.  The Mazda RX7 FD is thought of one of the great sports cars of all time.  Its body lines and handling were well beyond its date.  With a factory twin turbocharged rotary motor, this sports coupe was easy to modify and could gain a whole lot of power.  However if the Rotary is not your friend and you dont feel like overheating, there is the old saying, “there is no replacement for displacement.”  And in fact, that is what we have here.  This customer took his RX7 and swapped a LS1 engine in it.  Tons of torque, tons of horsepower, and parts for days.

Vivid Racing equipped this machine with a set of Advan RS Wheels in gunmetal.  The front is a 18×9 +35mm and the rear is a 18×10 +15mm.  Of course in the 5×114.3 bolt pattern for the Mazda.  Keeping or trying to keep traction is a set of Hankook Ventus V12 tires with a 285/30/18 in front and a 295/30/18 in the rear.
