I got mine from www.flashoptions.com it was a pain in the *** doing the importing but I love the project. If you plan on doing it your self you need to know alot about fab work.

There is a company in New Zealand that makes the 4-rotor engines. You buy the complete kit then buy your rotor housings seperate & have a local builder assemble.

The company is called "Precision engineering" & the contact there is called "Jeff Bruce".

There are a couple of re-sellers of these kits via Kiwi rotary shops but you are obviously going to pay their mark up on top.

Are you rich like Bill Gates?
If not...

Go to school.
Get a degree.
Get a good job.
Make lots of money.
THEN ask us these questions when you're rich.

Don't even ask about an R26B project unless you got $100k burning a hole in your pocket.

hmmm well i have one that i am in the process of rebuilding for my own car
and if you don't care what the cost is I am sure i would sell it.
don't care what the shipping cost is hell i might even deliver it.
better yet i know where there is a car with a 20b in it for around 12,900cdn
for a extra few grand i would drive it out there you would end up with an
engine and you could even keep the car.

its nothing personal. We get quite a few people in here with their Mcdonald's job asking about full custom 4 rotors, custom 1 off dog gear transmissions. full tube frame $100,000+ projects when they are just pipe dreamers fishing for info when they cant afford to even buy the computer needed to run such an engine.

Check out the original poster's profile...
He was BORN when I GRADUATED FROM HIGH SCHOOL.
That makes him about 20.
I'm 37.
If I was 20 and had a 20B making 600hp+, I would've killed somebody with it.
That my brutal truth.

Now, if the guy is rich...then so be it.

If he's not, he's wasting our time.

Im thinking that if he has to ask where do buy a stock engine in the first place (especially with such a half-assed attitude) that there isn't a chance he's going to get it into the car and running...

A 20B located in Langley, BC (basically Vancouver) just sold on E-Bay for around $4000 US. Chances are it wasn't him that was buying though.

Doesn't look like SuperRotorMan Is around (or even serious about this). To think I was going to PM you to see If we can get something done. PM me If you are serious.

The buyer for my 20B kinda passed on it for now....so mine also is up for sale.

But trust me...its not a cheap unit. Pm me also if you want details on my motor.

you can pick up a 26b at your local autozone they'll even install it for you. bolts right in and you won't be made fun of for running 17 sec 1/4 miles anymore, you should also pick up some mad tyte JDM rims with rotor shaped spinners while your at it. maybe you'll pick up some chicks when you stop by walmart for some sam's cola.
