anyone in the oxnard area I need to barrow a flywheel.
Well I need to take the front crank bolt off, but I need a stock flywheel so I can brake the the nut loose.
Yes I tryed heating it no luck, and I went out and got a impact gun 730 ftlbs @90psi so I turned it up to 120. still no luck.

Welcome to the world of rotaries. 
190 lb-ft of torque, an inch of threads and Locktite make that bolt a lot of fun.
Did you order the flywheel locker tool from Mazdatrix that bolts onto the back of the engine and locks the flywheel? That works GREAT, that's what I use.

heat the bolt up until its cherry red, it really takes an oxy gas torch or at least a good map gas torch to do this.
Once its red it will spin off with the impact wrench.
