oh... that sucks. So it's just a shell with RX-8 theme on it? Sorta like the Bullish Motors' Solara.

Why not put a 20B in a 7? Less weight and it has been done a lot more often so you have more to go by

Because Mada doesn't make the 7 anymore.
Why promote a model that they can't profit on?
Anyway, the outside of the car has nothing to do with the insde.
Under the shell, all of those drag cars are a completely custom build up on a tube frame.
Specs of the street model don't apply at all.

Putting it in a 7 or a 8 wouldn't really matter in this case, because those drag race cars were probably never really actual CARS. More of a jungle-gym with wheels and a motor, covered by a fiberglass composite shell made to resemble an RX-8.
