86 s4 na swap to s5 t2

Hi the second rotor of my 13b says goodbye and I Don find any rotor or rotor housing who ships to my country.
So I'm going to buy a complete s5 t2 complete engine less the gearbox and ecu.
I imagine That the ecu will not be compatible with this motor so I will have to buy it.
But the gearbox I don't know if it's compatible.
I would like to know if there is any guide to make this swap.
Thanks!!

All rotary transmissions will bolt to any other rotary engine. Except maybe RX-8... so the Turbo 2 engine will bolt up to your existing engine mounts as well as the transmission that is in the car. Although much more than the 200 horsepower that the turbo will produce in stock form may shorten the lifespan of the NA transmission or rear end components. FYI.

You will also need to retain the NA flywheel and clutch assembly in order to use the T2 gearbox.

Yeah I did a cross series swap. 87TII with 90TII engine and had to go stand alone ecu, but that was all because it is a TII shell. The n/a drive line might be ok for stock TII power, but if you are dumping the clutch it probably wont last long. They make a n/a to TII driveshaft so you can use the n/a rear-end but you might as well just swap it all to TII at that point and have lsd.
