All 2g transmissions are interchangable if im not mistaken. The exterior of the motors are almost identical.

Yes it will work. People from junkyards are morons, don't ever ask a shop, junkyard, etc about a car unless they specialize in that particular make...especially a Rotary car!!

UNLESS it is a TII or an automatic. Those transmissions require engine and other drivetrain changes.
