That's pretty cool.

Are you a honda hater, rotary hater, or some other beat on every brand except toyota type?

For sale again? It can't be that good if it gets flicked on every few months.
I love deadlines. I like the whooshing sound they make as they fly by.

Disgusting. Revolting. GROSS.

I'm nor a Honda hater or a Rotary hater.
Im an crossbreed hater. :lol:

Good on them (who ever first built the green one) for being different and having the time and effort to make it.
But not my cup of tea.

so you wouldnt have a high revving n/a front wheel drive?? The power that they make for the physical size of the motor is cool... i'm not a big fan of rotors but if you lined that thing up in an fxgt or bzg im sure you would get ur arse handed to you... unless its just all noise and no power.
When in doubt, down and out.

I'd own it, its' cool, and very different.. in fact, for all the years that I've seen it advertised, I haven't heard mention of anyone else doing the same thing.

must have been interesting to sort the gearbox? id definatly own that, but im guessing the reason people keep flicking it on after a few months is coz the novelty of it would wear off rather quick.

At least it seems to be a fairly tidy conversion. Wonder if that FWD rotary setup came from the Lawton BF Familia a few years back, had similar or the same paint on the outside of the mazda as is the colour of the housings on the motor in the civic. There isn't too many FWD rotary setups in the country that actually work AFIK.
