Welcome to the club. As you may have already noticed, opinion about those rotating piston motors is starkly divided between those who absolutely love them,..... & those that think that their true purpose in life is as landfill.
Many believe that Nissan /Datsun manufactured a perfectly good range of high performance four cylinder engines, all of which are the right choice for a Datsun car. It's an argument that has some demonstrated merrit.

Don't be put off as there will be members here to support you against those who's opinion of your engine chioce is quite diferent from yours.

As for me, what do i think about those increadibly noisy rotor-motors? I think that they are small, light, & very powerfull, but they will never replace the internal combustion engine.

Where do rotor's combust? Externally?

Anyway, a 20B in a 1200 would only be any good as a drag car. So it depends what you want out of your 1200!!

If you can get a big v8 in there then you should be able to put in a 20b

Have a little think about the attitude of the mind that made the quote, & you may eventually see the humor of it.

If you still cant grasp it, then i will explain.

Ok, the "humour" has been explained. How the hell I was supposed to get that I don't know.

Out of interest does anyone else get it or am I just stupid?
