Re: ROTARY 1600

Quite a lot more work to install well than it first appears, unless you want them to sit quite far forward in the engine bay. Most people seem to use the early 13B (rx4) type sump and the gearbox tunnel is usually enlarged and the drivers footwell changed for exhaust clearance, as it runs opposite to the normal engines, and runs very hot. Look at www.bryanf.com for some good technical coverage of the conversion. IMO an SR20 Turbo or FJ/CA etc.. is an easier fit, provides good power and economy while still being good to drive at low revs, and it's still Nissan :) After owning a bridgeport 13B rx2 and now owning an FJT 1600, I'd never go back to a rotary ,even though they are great engines in their own right. 

Any of the preceeding comments shold not be taken seriously. Any person/s named have had their identities changed to protect the innocent. Any claims of horsepower or performance ! should not be taken seriously and are subject to embelishment and exageration for bench racing purposes only.
