the GTUs swap!! its really cheap, ive only got about $6k invested in mine, and its really easy to do. people who say an NA -> T2 swap is hard are on crack. the most technical thing id ever done engine-wise prior to the swap was an oil change, and i swapped in a jdm t2, which required a engine wiring harness swap with no refernce to go by. me and friend, with even less experince than me, installed the engine in about 4 days. the hard part is finding all the parts you need

well, If I have to do alot of custom work I don't think it is worth it.....that and the fact that I am short on the money thing.....I have a GTUs now.....and it will be easier than a miata TII swap. My goal now is to eventually rebuild my GF's miata and convince her to get it turbo'ed....

That sounds like the Mercedez forums lol

Pics of the rotary miata from Sevenstock can be found in my bunch of pics here:

I hate to revise the dead. But I have been planning this swap for years, and just now am getting to it. I am failure with the 5.0 bolt in swaps and v6 swaps but I have not come across someone making drop in mounts for a 13bt or REW. If anyone does know where to get mounts I would greatly appreciate it.

If not then I will just start on fabing the mounts when I get the hoist hydraulic rebuilt.

ps. the miata community is not that helpfull I agree.
