What would be your dream car to drop a rotary into
#11
I would like to put a 20b in a MX-6, I always liked those bodies, or maybe a 20B in a Miata, I feel every car has its own character, and to put a rotory in a Mazda seems so right. Just my opinion of course, but to put a rotory in a supercar ( lambo, viper, etc..) in my mind is ruining them. But if you have some other kind of odd car that is in great shape, and doesnt run, and to repower it would cost a bundle, why not a rotory right?

id love to put a rotory in my moms 96 toyota rav 4 and one in my brothers 02 chevy cavailer **** it would be reall funny to do that one night to my brothers car and see what happens when he leaves for work in the morning

The Adapter Plate idea would be lame. The Suzuki bellhosing is tiny, which would mean a tiny clutch that couldn't handle the power. Plus I don't think the 80 hp Sidekick Tranny could handle the 160+ Mazda power. It would have been easy enough to put a transfer case behind the Mazda Transmission. Mazda even did this with the Rally cars.
My problem was the front axle. I knew I wasn't going to LIFT mine, but lower it. So I had no room for it.
I think the ultimate would be a Mazda 929 or 626 (NEW) with a 3 rotor!

I'd like to finish my MG Midget 13B project and get started on my baja. I'd also like to put a rotary in a Fiat X1/9 and an Isuzu Imark. The Imark (similar to a chevy spectrum) would be a lot easier because there is more room under the hood.
You know what? My friend mentioned that he'd like to put a 20B in an MX-6 the other night. Then I told him they're front wheel drive and he got all depressed.
I'd like to put a 20B in my Cosmo. The 20B is a Cosmo engine of course hehe.

My idea is totally un-original, but I'd like one in a Datsun 510. I really like the way they look.
13B carbbed in a toy starlet.
but seriously, with mild body modifications, i think you can stuff a 20b in the back of a karman ghia. theonly problem would be the tires. theres only so much room underneath there.

You could make a widebody kit.
