The ONLY FD3s RX-7 with an engine is the Tamiya RX-7 R1.

with some modification, yes.. but you need to open the hood and maybe take the chasis of the tamiya one

Subway put the R1 engine into the Fujimi Greddy kit. (or was it that he put the Fujimi parts onto the Tamiya kit?)

I'm pretty sure he used the Tamiya body, that's why he had to re-make the hood, etc. But I'm not totally sure.

I wish Aoshima gave you an engine......... That kit would sell like crazy!
