I found a pretty nice TII roller car on craigslist a couple of days ago.
From what I am reading and from some help from Brismo7 it sounds like the swap isn't too difficult.
What do you guys think.
I think I could get it all done for $5k.

If you can really get a roller, engine, tranny, ECU, wire harness, and all of the other custom parts for the swap for $5k, then go for it. The power to weight ratio is awesome. My $0.02 is FD > any other RX7. Just be prepared to spend more time and money than originally planned. That's usually how it goes with conversions. I'll help.

It will matter. You can put much larger tires on the back of a FD then you can a FC. The only way to get big tires on the back of a FC is a wide body kit. There is also more wheel hop issues with a FC then a FD. I've owned 6 FC's and 1 1995 FD. The Fd is a better car in many different ways besides looks.
