it would probably fit easily with a little fabrication, but making it actually run is a completely different story.

Let me tell you something about rx7s as a daily driver.
You don't plan it to be a daily driver, it ends up being a daily driver, and thats if your lucky.

Okay, I think this is going in the wrong direction right about now.
It sounds like the OP has made their decision, so I'm closing this for now.
If anyone has a good reason to reopen this thread up, PM me.
