Well guys, I got the Rotary bug..

This is going to be a slow project since there is a lot to do, but just to mention a few..

1. Update the rear suspension and diferential to a Strange Ford 9inch, strange disk brake with a4 link suspension, wheels are going to be Weld Racing V series 15x10 still undecide on the tires

2. front suspension will be modify to accept a Spindle Wheels.. will be using a Toyota struts with coils over, strange from caliper and disk

3. Engine is a 93 13B Twin Turbo, convert to a single turbo and Microtech ECU

need to figure how to post pictures


suggestions are welcome

below is a picture my cousin car, this is going to be my end result... looking for a different blue

side note, Im looking to buy the Sedan Deluxe Cow vents

Looks nice. Are you going for a certain look? Because there are far easier ways to swap in a 13B turbo. A 9" rear axle is heavy and overkill for a street car, on the other hand it makes sense for a drag racer.

The Deluxe Cowl Top Grille are likely the most rare part to find for a 1200. The Coupe vents are far easier to find.

Wow. Go for it again!

Reminds me of this Texas rotary that I considered buying. Instead I bought a 1200 pickup.
