Well, the crickets were overwhelming. So, the car is now under re-configuration to become a street car again.
The engine is a 1.8L Mazda BP-5 from a '94 Protege. I've made a new low profile oil pan so that it will fit under the hood. An adapter plate was made to join it with the RX7 5-speed that has been in the car. The pumpkin will be changed to a 3.9 LS unit on-hand. The wheels are 15 x 6.5 Vision Cross that will probably be wrapped in Yoko S-drive 205-55s.

Stay tuned, when it's ready for use, a new ad will be listed.
