im working on getting my rotary powered corolla on the road. i pulled the motor and tranny out of old gsl-se. ive been working on it for awhile and was planning on boosting it with my t70. but i want something a lil tamer so i guess ill be doing a t4 setup. heres a pic

 

Have you mounted the motor yet?

 

yep, heres a pic of the engine in the car, the engine bay needs to be cleaned up and im cleaning up my waterpump/waterpump housing

 

how did u do the motor mounts and trane mounts, i have my ae86 hatch at my house waiting for a 13t lol

 

thats crazy man, we have the same turbos and the same cars(kinda mines a coupe)????

the SA 13b mounts to the front cover, i just fabbed a bar with a mounting plate and installed.

 

Hey , good stuff here. Keep us updated!

PS where is Whiteman AFB?

 

nice little project you've got there. keep the pics coming.

 

whiteman afb is in missouri. im originally from florida and i will try to get some more pics later

 

Wait a minute isnt a 13t a high comp 3tc? or do you mean a 13bt

 

Have you made a driveshaft yet? Are RX7 and AE shafts the same diameter?

 

do not have a driveshaft yet, had the 2 old shafts from the 7 and the 4ag but i dont know what happened to them(dont ask me how) im talking to a couple different companies actually on opposite coasts(FL and CA) about a shaft but i need to sell my turbo first so thats where im at now

 

Nice job on the transplant. I have alway thought that car would be better with a rotary. You should put a TRxD sticker on it. J/K.

 

sorry a 13bt cuz i get them for cheap 950 motor and tranE. JSEPC

 

Nice swap. I did one last year in an 1985 Corolla SR5. Like to see more PICs of yours.

 

ill post some more pics when i get home

 

My friend has a '73 Corolla Wagon that he has been thinking about Rotorizing. Has anyone done one of those or a Mango? He has good motors and transmissions to use as well as a welder. I think he need some pictures to get him motivated.

 

that would be sick, ill go out right now and shoot some pics of my mount

 

heres some pics

 

Man thats pretty awesome. I've thought thats a cool idea with an AE86. More info! how'd you design the mounts? how does the drive train work? Stock components? Mazda components? info man info! lol.

 

Tyblat, are you on dsmtuners? i know ive seen your name somewhere, heres a pic of my daily. anyways drivetrain was from my old gsl-se, basic swap, i hard wired in an 190lbh fuel pump. the mount was easy as you can see from the pics since the 1st gen 13b's mounted on the engines front cover. uh, i dont know what else to say, ive been working on this swap slowly since 2002 so its been awhile since ive done this stuff.

 

I gotta 86 corolla coupe and I want 2 do a 13b rotary motor with a manuel trans cause its auto but its RWD.I just wanted 2 know what i would need 2 do this kinda swap and any tips if you guyz have any.Email me back at dead4lyfe@aol.com

 

when i had my 12a in my toyota ae86. My boy and I used a bed frame, and we weld a metal plate to the bottom of the frame to hold the bottom bolt of the engine. Dont have pics of it, wish i did. But you might need to drop the crossmember down a few inches. of you are running a carb.

 

That is great. I told my friend he should do this to his Corolla as well. lol I would kill to have a rotary powered old skool rear drive Corolla.
