Welcome fella, Nice car! Really good to see more rotarys in old cars. Here in blighty there just aint enough but hopefully it'll change- they are soooo cheap to buy here and lots to pick from. Theres a band of us here trying to spread the word.... www.kiwirotary.com/aotea/index.phpPlease post your car up here- they will cream their pants!!!! ;D |

holy curse word what a response cheers guys for the comments. Will try answer all your questions & just been out in the sun took a few pics to show case the colour for you I'll wack up a few build pics n stuff later on Wheels are 17x7 advanti orphick as for mounting the rota easy as to do so got pics of the whole conversion i'll chuck sum up to..  Engine is extened ported {similer to porting a piston engines head} 10pound flywheel, rejetted 4 barrel carb, tuned length headers been dyno tuned put down 213 hp at the treads which s bloody good as its really only a baby compared to what you can do to rotarys port wise & that        The beginning  |

Ah man, cool car and ridiculously good weather? Where's the downside? The paint is superb. Flip-type effect and lots of flake in there? Looks brilliant when the sun's hitting it there. Bit of a difference in the before and after shots there alright!!

Mate - thats just effing awesome..! Very interested to know who did the paint - I live in Lyttelton. Excellent choice of vehicle - guess I should be thinking of a similar motive transplant for one of my Marinas, but I'm just not sold on the rotary form of power delivery... Had designs on a Mazda 3 litre V6 as a source of the sort of noise I like - I want it to sound like a Merlin... Big ups boyz - you done a good thing. Kilroy homepages.ihug.co.nz/~kilroy/Marinas.htm |
