No, he wants to replace his rotary in his Mazda with a VW motor....:smilegrin:

Nope you guys know what I'm really up to. Engineering a range of affordable adaptor kits for engines to bolt onto Subie gearboxes. Done type i VW and type iv VW, just doing a v6 Honda for a sand racer and thought I'd do the Mazda rotary one before someone asks, as they're bound to.

Of course you've got on Klaus, I shoulda just PM'd you in the first place! I'll PM you now. Thanks guys!

hey man im pretty sure i have access to one in sydney when im back on tuesday, can do a shed session with boof if u still need one

Hey Guys thanks heaps. I've got a rotary adaptor and counter weight here courtesy of Klaus (what does that guy NOT have??)

AVWBOY we NEED to do another session with Boof soon. That was a funny night. I am going to go up there and fit a subie auto into that Vanagon soon so will spend some time up there. I see one or two sleepless nights in my future.... with a grinder.....

SEAGULL yes the V6 Honda motor we are referring to rotates in the correct (i.e. Clockwise) rotation. I think it's just some of the older B and K series 4 cyl motors go the other way.

Sweet! Come down to the nats on Sunday and we'll have a yak about it. I've got a t shirt for you too. Bling.
I also want your old type 3 that's up the shed. Wanna put a liberty turbo and 5 speed in it and light up those back wheels. Got the type 3 mounts for motor and box all done, tested and engineer approved so can just reproduce them and bolt er up.
