There are a lot of V8 fiero kits so I don't see why a Rotary platform couldn't be created. Google V8 fiero and you should get alot of transferable info.

I doubt you you ever do this, it'd be easier to do the v8, you're not going to be able to find a transmission to do that. too much money, not worth it.

You forgot to mention that it's got the ugliest interior ever made.

my side project is going to be a tubular chasis MR Platform with a 13BT Powerplant. (not just a race car will be street driven)
Transmission woudl be fairly easy but costly, you would have to get a custom bellhousing adapter made up. Woudn't be too horribly difficult.

why not?it`s not that impossible.they put v8s in useing the gt borg warner trans.the way i look at it is if they can put a 13b in a vw bug useing an other wise stock transaxle it can be done.as for the interrior there`s kits for that.

you would have to get a fwd trany "toyota" find an adapter , then do alot of customising...axels ,mounts...so on.

The v8 is easer .. just use a cady northstar v8 with a fwd trany.. plus you can but mounts for the v8
