Car looks badass.

Expression on peoples face when you tell them its a honda accord = priceless

LOL

thanks, but its NOT a honda accord, prelude whatever, it is a complete kit based on nothing, has a tube frame and i want a ROTARY in it!

True. I was thinking that as I submitted it.

Sorry I guess started this. LOL

I origanal thought it used the chassis from an accord. but then edited it to say that it was only the doner car.

nope, just the motor and tranny which i am not using, im even gonna use flying bird badges, lol rotory is in my blood and if i cant put one in it i wont have it.

oorx7, wouldnt the alltrac set up be backwards if the motor is in the rear, im not femiliar with that driveline. reverse wouldnt go forward and vise versa would it?

at 50k, I would build a GTM Mulsanne from Factory 5. 2250 lbs and a corvette engine and suspension (kind of) and a porsche transaxle.

im getting a steal on this at 16k, if i have 30k in it including the price im paying ill be happy, i just sold my fd i had over 50k in and took a huge loss, if i build another fd im going to dump well over 30k in it. if i build this i can get well over 30k when its completed, if i have to sell it.

When i said "true". I was thinking the same as you. I don't think it will work out for the reasons you sugested. But the gear set in that trans might be better suited for your build.

hmm, porsche tranny, thats strong.

nope, wont work, i think the mr-2 '93 on idea is the best answer. anyways back to what people think of this idea in general.

I have been looking (dreaming) of the K1 since it came out. Have you been over to their forum? There was another dreamer over there that was dead set on putting a rotary in one of these. Naturally the tranny is the first problem but there will be many others. You better have lots of time, cash and know-how to pull it off. I love rotaries as much as anybody on here but building this car correctly is a big enough challenge without trying to mash together parts that weren't intended for it. Hell, why don't you throw in 2 13bs while you are at it, one for the front wheels and one for the rear? But hey, big ideas are where big things start I guess so more power to you if you make it happen. There was a 20b powered DeLorean built once and that has a mid mount: http://www.eliseusa.com/rotary.htm Get some ideas there.

As for the GTM... nice but a completely different personality. It makes me think of the db9.

If you get anywhere with this let us know. I will then copy you after being a nay-sayer. ;-)

The GTM screams kit car to me. The K1 looks like it could be a future production vehicle.
How about a Noble? :D

wasn't there a civic with a RE swap?

noble.. they are nice, and look even better in person, but I think they are around 90 grand and up... I don't think he is wanting to spend that..

How about an MR2 with a body kit...

It only uses the best parts.... like the H22 2.2 liter honda VTEC motor!

Look at a K20... racing engine...

I popped the hood on my friends accord, and was like: HOLY SHIT! the other day.
Through it was the 2.4 liter variant (aka k24, not to be mistaken for the ka24de nissan truck motor)
