Has anybody else ever used '89 - '91 N/A rotors in a B-REW block?

I haven't driven mine at all since May of 1998... 5 years as of last Friday.

Talk to Hayes Rotary. I'm sure they've done this to someone who may or may not have found out about it yet.

Nevermind your car, I didn't think you existed! Good for you, hopefully mine will be that badass if I ever get it running again.

The reason for seam welding is to strengthing the Unibody construction. Instead of having a series of spot welds spaced 1"-2" apart, each sub-component of the chassis is welded to each other along its whole length.
Make sure to have your car put on a laser straightening bench, I would imagine that seamwelding the entire carwould get it kindda warped. Or just slap on a sticker that says "Tripod"
Though it a great thing to do if youre gonna go racing. Mmmmmmmm no flexing
