"Camry Engine Swap"

Sup Guys/Gals? This is my first post here, but I got a question I need to ask you. I just recently bought a new JSPEC engine for my Mazda Rx7. The old one needs a rebuild, and i was planning on rebuilding it, and if its possible, putting it in my camry, and mess around with it for a project car. IF anybody has any advice of Engin Swapping, or could give me any tips, or have succesfully done something like this, shoot me a e-mail or post!

Generally, don't even think of putting a rotary in a FWD car. You'd have to custom adapt a tranny and all sorts of other issues. Don't bother. Seeing that you're into Toyotas, maybe pick up an old celica, corolla, or starlet to put that motor into. Something lighter and RWD.

anyone seen a rotary AE86? My friend tells me you make those cars handle really well. Too bad you need a smog check though.
