it's been done so many times. though i've never seen them on the net but i do see them in real life. most (Puerto Ricans) are using rotary engines on any car they can find. crazy? not! it's like a normal swap for them BUT if you don't have any experience with rotors, forget about the swap. it's easy to understand how they work but to actually master them is another story. you need to tune it really good to make it work properly. there was another AE86 on the pro drag circuit about 5 years ago in the states aside from Paradise Racing, and they're using a 3-rotor turbo on the AE86. when i saw them the mechanics are having a hard time tuning it but it was running high 9s. very good swap for an AE86 if you asked me. very light motor with big potential.

on the Supra swap... i wouldn't do it just coz the car will be front heavy. my friend scrap the idea after dropping the 1JZ motor for the fear of bending the chassis. and they couldn't figure out how to put the power to the ground. there's tons of swap available for you without going to I6. if you want a crazy expensive swap, do a 3SGTE. if you want a crazier swap buy an S2000 F22C motor or a BEAMS 3SGE from an Altezza.. now that's crazy!


here's some photos i've found. 530whp 9sec. Corolla (not an AE but you pretty much get the idea.)

that is so true. rotaries and hooked up 3TCs...as a manner of fact, there's two rx-7s and a 81 corolla in my driveway

thanks, i know how to do it. i have about 5 people that r going to help me . 3 out of the 5 are master techs. after i get it put in im taking up to this place to put it on the dyno and have a guy tune it for 200 bucks and hr. i just need a picture so i can see how much room will be left over and all that and to show it to the guys that r going to put it in and use it as a gide line. thanks for the pictures, i seen a car like this fly like hell. plus when i drift i can push higher rpms

if anyone has a rx7 engine and tranny and ecu let me know, lowest i can find it is for $1000

rotaries are very small, so you'd have quite alot of extra space.
