sorry if i put it in the wrong place didnt know where else to post noob

 

The 3rd gens use the 13B with a twin turbo charger. Nothing was shipped to North America with a 20B in it, though the engines can be bought here. There is a 20B section on this forum where you can find more info. As far as getting a rotary engine into a Trueno, you may need to check a Toyota board. The guys on this board are not just into rotary engines, they are RX-7 enthusiast, so there is limited info available when comes to getting rotary engines into other cars simple because few people on this board had done it. Usually we see people asking about putting a V8 in a RX-7, so there is some info about that, but for the car you have, you might have to look elsewhere for some help.

 

welcome.

i think i've seen a few threads in the Other Rotary section on this board. you could check there. just search a little. i know some information is there.
