ive seen them go the other way, SR in an FC, which motor are you talking about? im assuming the turbo 13b like in the FDs? i think that would be pretty sweet, and actually not disgraceful to either mazda nor nissan. get some money and do it.

I thought someone had done it...guess not. it shouldnt be too much of a difficult swap. i know a rotary into a 510 isnt too bad of a swap. some guy in one of the rice mags had a nice silver 510 with a 13b.

I likes 'em better with an SR or something else by Nissan, don't think I've seen one with an RB yet...

I'm personally against the idea of mutt cars but the rotary is commonly used becuase it's small and has enormous power potential.

It still seems wrong to me:(

unless you want a strict showcar, you're gonna have a hell of a time with emissions.

You are right. For me emissions is a big minus in this swap. I live in New Jersey and they are crazy about emission test.
