ROTARY swap
K so this summer i plan to do a rotary swap into my 92 miata and i need some help finding out what all needs to be done to make this swap happen.
i've got a motor and possibly an ecu but i know thats not all of what i need has anyone come across a build thread for this swap?
custom motor mounts i know are a necessity along with an adapter plate from the transmission to the motor but what else????

Yo Dawg...imma put a V6 in my whip...whats eye need?
For real man, if you have to ask I'm pretty sure you're not going to be capable of pulling off the swap, not to mention, do you know how many different variations of the Wankel there are? At least be specific with what you've got and what your goals are when you post here.
Oh and prepare yourself for about 25 more "WTF are you doing?" "Why not just go V8?" "Stay 4cyl and turbo that bitch!!" posts.

Yep no torque, only horsepower, theres no connection between them at all.
Also, rotaries blow up all the time, they are the most unreliable thing ever made, you can only drive for a few seconds at a time between rebuilds.
Also, mazda designed the miata for homosexuals and women.

Why do people continue to start these ******* threads?
Edit:
I vote for implementation on "rotary" into the word filter.. Any thread started with the topic would just automatically be purged..
