Wink <--Jokes on the n00b

Just picked up a 13b from an 89 non-turbo. Not sure exactly where I'm going with it but it's eventually going to power my Corolla. I don't have any hands on experience with rotaries but I've always been fascinated by them so hopefully I may entertain as well as enlighten on the topic of:
n00bsauce messing with his first rotary

Noob don't bother searching, just sell me that motor for what its worth... I'll give you $50 for it and pick it up sunday, since you're only 3hrs from me... Those 89 motors have POS rotors, they're terrible for NA

Yea I just found out that the 89 motor is a size and it would be to big for the corolla's engine bay... I think the flux capacitor will also be incompatable with the toyota's wiring, which is why you should take $25 for it...






Hey its worth a shot, someone on here got a good, complete 20b for $700 a few months ago from a noob around my way

Damn, that sucks about the engine not being able to fit in my car. I have a 1987, maybe I should have bought a 1986? Stupid flux capacitors.
