Talking New to rotary, just picked up a first gen!

My friend found a shop owner with this car and for the price, I couldn't resist picking it up! I've been reading up on rotary theory and all the info I can find on the fb's, its a 1982 GSL

12A street port engine with less than 20k
Weber sidedraft carb with racing beat intake manifold, header and exhaust
Tokico shocks with racing beat springs
GSL-SE rear end LSD
Dual electric fans operated with an adjustable temp sensor
Custom Tailored SS Braided Oil cooler kit
Autopower 4 point roll bar
Momo steering wheel with hub adapter
Autometer Oil Temp Gauge

I'm planning on getting some falken azeni 615's 195/60/r14's to put on the with mesh upsilon rims I picked up with it I gotta find a way to get it smogged.Figure out why the rear brakes are leaking fluid under heavy braking, replace the clutch slave cylinder because of a slow leak, wire the radiator fan to the ignition (adding in a kill switch and push start while I'm at it), and put in some beat. All for 1350!!
What do all of ya think?

PS- I'm gonna take some better pics and post em tonite
