Re: JAS-13BTT-A in a miata?

To this day, there is NOBODY that I know of in the US that has swapped a rotary(even a TT at that mattter) into their Miata. There are only pictures/articles of this swap being done by shops in Japan.

Be prepared to embark on this project in the dark because nobody else is going to hand you a flashlight.

I if were to guess on the final price of this project, it would have to be in the 15k ballpark if you did all the work yourself. You can go out and by a Flyin' Miata FMII Tubo kit, clutch, and exhaust, for around 6 or 7 grand and have a reliable Miata with 230hp to the ground.

If you are still interested in an engine swap, check out Miata.net's Engine Swap forum. Tons of people over there willing to help.

It ahs been done in America, in fact I know of a couple of people in the middle of 20B swaps. There is a kit with a new K memeber and a trans adapter plate. Most people suggest a Turbo II trans and rear for the swap though. I'll post a link for the kit if I can find it.
