I measured my REPU on Saturday for a 20B and it could fit with lots of tweaking. The sway bar is actually further forward than on my Cosmo, but the rear of the engine will still need to be moved back because the engine bay is kinda short. Lots shorter than a Cosmo or any RX-7.



The REPU was originally a boinger vehicle that's been tweaked to fit a rotary. A 15A would have fit nicely, but a 20B is a good bit longer. It can be done, but I'd recommend a 'dog-leg' style shifter relocation mod to move it back up to the stock location. Heh, and that's just the begining!



Nice car, j9fd3s!

pauls got some generic one and ive got 2 sexy spal fans. one is big and thick the other is thin. i think they were both 11", i would have run 1 black magic one but it wont fit, theres not a lot of room between the engine and radiator anymore
