such thing as a Rotary Front Wheel drive Mod??
Such Mod as a Front Wheel Drive Conversion?
Rotary Fanatic all the way.... My last FD had to be sold due to low cash... I currently have a Vdub Jetta '94 that I hate ... was a fast buy .. I want to rip it apart and put a Rotary in it ... Anyway to put a Rotary in it and get a tranny to make it FWD? Or anyway? Has this ever been done? Please dont Flame me ... I hate the VDub Looking everyday for a good buy in a 2nd Gen at least to get me back to Wankle |
Nothing that you can just buy and bolt on. It would require an ass load of fabrication. Rear wheel drive is better anyway. (IMO)

This is a front wheel drive rotary car. http://vintagerotaries.com/FORUM/files/685328dkm.jpg

Owner of the First Pic? If you are do you have any Postings for your Mods? Pics , documentation of what all you had to do?
I'm sure there are some boltons or things that come close that can be retapped to fit :) Ithink Rotary Jeta would be interesting and unique. |
All I did was post the pics. HellCat is the owner. :)

I'm sorry to hear that .... But I'm goign to keep looking for a way or fabrication ideas to make this work :)

You can bolt Lada's engine to the Jetta,but where you find this engine.Engine from mazda hot suitable for FWD installation (many problems with driving shafts and transmission).
