Yes they are awesome trucks. If I had my way, I would have Judge Ito's REPUs gift to rotary engine enthusiat. Something like a Factory Mazda REPU with 420rwhp on 12lbs of boost. straight out the show room...

If I ever find another one for sale before another FB than the T2 is going in to one. Then slap a TO4r on it and go find Vosko.

Wonder if I can import one to Australia. That would be mint. Except over here we call them ute's, not pickups, so REPU would have to stand for Rotary Engine Powered Ute.

I am a big rotary fan.... one day 1 was behind a pickup that said rotary in black rusted paint. Sounded like crap. Looked all beat to hell. When he left and I cought up to him. I simply asked 12a or 13b. He said 13b... Oh man I want one now.... So lets see.... living in 2 parts of california all my life. From 16 till presant a rotary fanatic. Lived in the bay area and now SD..... call out every rx7 I see on the road..... and I have seen 1 repu... yeah they're a rarity... But I too will own one! That is actually my next purchase...

Nissan was selling restored older Z cars in the dealers, supposidly everything was rebuilt on them.



You should try something like that for a REPU, or even some 1st gens
