motor question

i was lookin at some motors, and i found a 1jz from a supra for really cheap. i did some research, but couldnt find anything. as much as i love rotary, i also love speed, but im on a small budget. does anyone know how much work would be involved in puttin a 1jz into my fc3s?

If you have to ask, it's not going to happen.

it would be super expensive and take forever. you would have to manufacture new motor mounts, and get a new transmission that would bolt up to the engine.

With this in mind, you must ask yourself:
Do i want a Supra? Or do I want an RX-7?
