What have you got in it?

vosko 08-22-2005 09:11 PM

i like most of it

redrotaryfever 08-22-2005 09:51 PM

the motor is mostly stock with a small port. it has a 2nd gen. trans. i wanted the longer gears for the turbo setup i was going to do, but i got other projects.

So it's a 12A? How does it go? It's in need of a clean under that hood, I like it though.

yeah, it does. i havent moved the car in about 2 weeks. i brought it out to a local gathering of car enthusiast ( street races) and right as i was going to start it up it atracted a croud of people. a little civic si wanted to see what it had..... poor honda boy, the car didnt hook until 6k revs in 2nd gear... this car has 2nd gen trans and those gears are no joke, there hella long. needles to say the $20,000 honda couldnt overcome the $1200 rust bucket. as i came back around to put it on the dolly, the radiator cap poped of as i was going to pop the hood. i still have the burn mark on my hand from the radiator cap. i plan on taking it out tonight to show a few people whats up!

Hey, I own a 85 GTS and i'd love to swap any rotary into it. do you have any information or websites that might have info on this swap?

KingFD 06-18-2006 04:20 AM

I wonder how this is going? Been almost a year now.
