Hello!
Me and my dad just purchased this White FC convertible. Body is in great shape, the engine has probably seen better days, so we might be doing something drastic. The goal is to make it fast. I'm just here to get some tips and inspiration. I've never owned a rotary before, so I've got alot to learn.

Hey Spencer,

I'm all the way up in Cleveland but it's nice to see some Ohio peeps here. What's the story on the car? Looks good.

Well, the car was a nightmare for the dealer that picked it up. Someone hooked it up to the 12a carb and got rid of all the EFI stuff. It didn't start for shit, and I'm pretty sure the apex seals are toast. We managed to pick it up for $2,000, nearly spotless body and an perfect top. We're trying to find everything to do a full turbo II swap, and if not, we're going to swap something crazy into it. My only limit is no V8s, because it's been done too many times before. But honestly, I'd love to keep it rotary. One we really dig into things, I'll probably start a build thread.

Yes, they had the vehicle on ebay and i sent them a message regarding the vehicle, why all the lights on the dash are on and there is a carb engine in place of the orignial efi engine.

I have a Good S5 engine, ect.
