but then again... He said he had gone through motor after motor, so im sure he enjoyed the rotary then decided to go custom on it.
good move, as long as he at least enjoyed the Rotary :D

just heard from someone that it costed him 4 grand less to do the ls1 motor then to redo another 13b twin turbo. so i guess thats a good enough reason. nothing against it, its a nice car. but i still like rotary. maybe thats just me though.

No it cost me more... By about $4-6K to do the LS1....
The issue was Forced Induction + Rotray = Danger Will Robinson! I blew two motors due to reasons nobody can really say, WOW, That was YOUR fault...
1'st ECU Reset itself back to factory defaults during WOT...
2'nd Tank of bad gas....
I can't afford to pay $4-6K for a rebuild every 18 mo....
Definitely not now that I have a mortgage... SO I needed to make One Last effort to save the car from going to the junk yard or getting sold to some poor kid that wanted to "Go Mad Drift'n Yo"....
3 Rotor was the next best thing for 300+ N.A. HP... but $30k is a bit much ! Ls1 was all that was left on the table...
