Hey, I was doing a little research on rotary engines, was wondering if anyone here had access to any good explanations or diagrams on how the transmissions in rotary vehicles like the RX-7 work
Or books on this would help too, if you guys know of any.

 

They are identical in design to piston engine transmissions.

Yup. Just because the motor is different doesn't mean the basic idea behind the driveline is too. Tranny still has an input shaft, still has a clutch, gears, etc. Same design.

 

oh, excellent, thanks
