Hello everyone i've been checking out this site for awhile and reading the posts alot of mickey mouse talent on this board, so i've got a question has anyone put a mazda rotary motor in your samurai and what it take to do it, I don't want to tie up my samurai to long. thanks for the input, Don

I saw a writeup about one of these on www.izook.com at one point.. i'll try to find the link for you..

:skull:

i just put a 12a rotary in a zuk p.u. we are building and don't think its a bolt in. we mover the t case back about 1 1/2" and make up new motor mounts and tranny mounts. it has the most power to weight you will find in a stock motor and a tuff tranny to boot. mike

I thought the rotery motors had to be reved high to get the torque out of them.

try google.com and "project mazuki" or combinations of suzuki, mazda, rotary samurai etc. etc.

try "search" here

I live in eastern washington which is desert area and we have no trees but we do have ground sqirrels that dig holes everywhere and of course they are gray so this is how I came to this name for my gray samurai, graydigger was already taken on yahoo so it is graydiger, Don

p.s. Thanks for all your nice replys

eastern wa is cool! really like that area.:beer:

I have a buddy with a 18b efi and trans out of a rx7 in his 86 sami. He did the transplant himself (except the wiring). He runs 38 inch tsl's. And ya your right most of the power is up high. He rev's the sheet out of it. The ecm shuts it down at 10 g's. He claims the install wasn't to difficult but he's a welder/ fabricator by trade.

sounds like the rotary might not be the way to go, but the v6 might be. thanks for all the input good and smart a$$

I think it's cool to do some trick stuff that is one of a kind but to a point, it's like putting your belt on the outside of the loops. Just go with a 1.6 or a one of those 4.3 or what ever these freaks run.:flipoff2:

whatever :bender: boy says:flipoff2:
