What, you don't want to buy the Datsun that came with a rotary

Seriously, I know it's been done before as we saw several of the conversions at sevenstock last year.

I'd post this question into the "other rotary" section of this website here:

AND send an e-mail to the rx7 list. You can join that list here:

there are a few on http://www.bryanf.com

I would get a complete T2 donor car as the little parts will nickel and dime you out of house and home. The '89-91 units made the most power (200hp)

A standalone aftermarket fuel management system would probably make the wiring less of a nightmare (Haltec, Tec2 etc).

I hope you plan to put some box flares on your 510 and some sticky meats...... your little 2000lb car is going to need it....

well...if you leave it EFI that's stand alone fuel system, you can get away with the 12A distributor for ignition.... Could perhaps try a carburated turbo 13bt w/distributor?
