Not so shure about the chassis construction on the front and rear strut mountings.

Like the rotary engine idea. Especially when you consider to replace a bad engine design with a much worser engine design.

Only way to make it worse than rotary is to get a Trabant engine.

Those wankels are pretty compact, did you think of throwing two in there instead of just one?

LOL. I wish. Na, this is pushing the limits of my ability to break things as is.

Haven't updated here in a while... most of my updates happen on RX7club.com. But here is more or less where it stands. I'm just hurring to make it into a "runner" by April. (there is a big rotary event in April in the mountains).





This is sneaking the bendix past the intak/exhaust





Mounting the starter to the front.






Intake, not much else going on here.









Side mounted alternator. Couldn't put it on the top like the factory cause of the starter and the cooling system.






and just an exhaust, nothing special.
