FWD rotary would no be bad in the snow,But I'm not a big fan of understeering. If your going to start a swap why not make a AWD roatry powered monster!! I read about a AWD 1st gen RX-7 in the "RX-7 performance handbook".

I am not a fan a FWD, but I have been pondering about building an adapter for the rotary to make it FWD, I just wont be using it as FWD. I would put this in to a MR2. Go mid-engine rotary.

would using an awd platform and just swapping over the fwd rear end be an option... then again which way are the engines mounted in the awd version??

Well, you could go the subaru way. Place the engine really far forward or the DSM way and have a normal FWD positioned engine with a transfer case built in to the trans.
I think that the subaru way would be the easiest, but I dont know if you can get the rotary engine to fit in the RXs engine bay after pushing so far forward. Our cars are "technically" a mid-engine (engine is behind the front axle) so you would have to put the engine in front of the front axle, so thats what, 2 feet forward. It obviously has been done. I just need to find the guys that do it. |
