RXRACER85

I have had to get rid of my beloved rx-8. (Tear) and i had to sucum to a front wheel drive contour and i have done the search and still need questions answered i would like to put a rotary in it to make a true sleeper i know there is a lot of fabrication to be done but could someone help me figure out what all i need to bolt a driveshaft and tranny to it and how much it will likely cost. im going to go with a 13b from a 86 rex and going to do a custom turbo for it or i might even go for a 6 port rotary. plz help with the questions i cqn not find the answers also plz dont flame me for wanting to put a rotary in a front wheel drive i just found a rotary powered civic hb Green with a carbed rotary in it and it game me ideas a true family car but with more power than this little pos has even though it has a V6 in it. after owning 3 rotarys i want something unique and out of the ordinary and this would be it!

Weird. What front-wheel-drive transmission mates up to a rotary?
I really want to know that...
My reasons are my own ^_^

i've seen a 90's tercel with a 12A swapped in.... very kool, had ITB's and a hole cut out for the hood to allow a ram air effect to the ITB's... and the header went under the motor and through the center of the car out the back....

Here in Puerto Rico I have seen also a Toyota Tercel with a bridge ported 12A. They used the stock transmission and fabricated an adapter to make it work. Also I have seen a Suzuki SA310 converted to RWD with a 12A. We put rotary engines into anything including a Jet Ski. I haven't seen that one but heard about it.

You could try talking to Kennedy Engineering about engine adapters if you are serious.

Kennedy made the adpater for my turbo rotary 911 Porsche. Their products are great. But you would have to call about a rotary to a contour.
