G'day, I have searched the forum about opinions on these conversions, but I wanted to be more specific.

I have a A14 powered 1200 coupe, I just sold a 12A turbo Rx-2 and have always owned rotaries but found the turbo ones not real enjoyable to drive and maintain.

The engines I'm thinking of are, SR20de vvt, CA18det or a 12A extend port with a weber carby.

The car will be 90% street driven, weekend blats through the national park corners so want good handling, and the odd track day.

Fuel economy is not an issue.

I've owned bridgeport 13B's before and found them lacking in real grunt, but that was in heavier RX-7's. Also too noisey

I do enjoy torquey engines, especially out of corners.

I didn't find the 12AT fun through corners with the boost hit.

I am kinda over turbo motors, but the CA18det looks like the main engine swap to go for. Bu are they laggy and not real big on torque?

A 12A with weber may be an easier / cheaper conversion, would I be able to run the standard fuel lines etc?

Any advice would be awesome

cheers
