just becareful who you let touch your car at the auto hoby shop. if you had a piston engine i would worry about it, i just dont know anybody at the shop that knows rotarys. areyou swaping a usdm 13bt or are you going with a jdm 13bt? becuase if your going japanese i think the wireing and oil lines are differnt other then that it shouldnt be hard. and i didnt take any pics cus it just 3 guys sitting at a table we werent near ower cars

lol yeah I wasnt gonna let them touch it anyway. As a matter of fact I was going to buy a JDM motor. I believe I have to look into this more. Would I be better off getting a rebuilt USDM. I have swapped rotaries b4, thats why I didnt think there would have been a problem being that I still had my workshop manual, and how I did the other two

Its black. I didnt drive it today. I have it parked. If you'd like to take a look at it let me know I'd be more than happy to let all of you look at her. Shes not runnin right and not wantin to start. The last time she fired on her own the motor was not reving much and severely shaky. I had a FCD so I think the rear rotor has burned out. Hey Rabbit, I have been searching the web on the JDM s4 and th only thing I can muster up is about oil lines but not anything with the wiring. Am i overlooking somthing. Im buying this motor from a good company that I have helped install a impressive RB25 from. Can you help me before I make a move with this motor, please?

um i just kinda remember people talking about it on line before they did a cleaning of the forums. um just post in the 2nd gen sec about the wiring. but i could be wrong too. it was a while ago. if the wiring is the same and i was wrong i would be glad to help you instal it. because i plan on doing the same swap.
