12A into AE86, anyone here done it?
Hey so I have this junky base model 84 but the engine is rebuilt. Now findint a GSL shell to drop it into is tough going so I was considering getting an engineless AE86.
Looks like a couple of people have put in 13Bs and 12As before and was wondering if someone here has done that and could give me some info.
I figure the 12A will be enough, it'll be basically the same power as the 4ag and will probably benefit better from opening up the exhaust also.

Well don't ask Matt22 cause he'll tell you its a honda but checkout BUMBLEBEE7 he put a turbo 13b into one search for 'Mazota' in the other rotary section
(i wouldn't know how to post a link for you sorry)
and go the 13b. 12a has the same power but less torque, get a turbo in there for fun!

go for it man, an ae86 with a 12A= fun day lol. ive been thinkin doing a 13bt swap on a starlet but an ae86 with a 12a would be more fun in my opinion, if youre gonna do the swap be sure to do a good street port and bridegeport to your 12A lol.
good luck

Maybe if you are just going to do a hack job.
Have to built motor mounts., tranny mount, shorten a tranny tailshaft, new driveshaft., work trans tunnel, set pinion angle just a few of the problems you have to work through.

Banned. I got OWNED!!!
Haha I read your thread BUMBLEBEE7 and the sheer ignorance of some people never ceases to amaze me! And to act so arrogant and smug about it! 
Congrats on the built, it looks very clean! And kudos to the thread starter on doing a rotary swap into a piston pooper!
