    13bt in an 86...? a bit over kill isnt it? i personaly dont think that kind of power is needed, and way overkill. i would personaly try and carby it and go a N/A route if possible. atleast look into it unless you do really want turbo.

    13bt would be good for ke70 I think. Same displacement (1.3L) and as torquey down low as a 4k

    cant see why it wont be good in an AE86 either, as long as you dont go stupid with the power outputs, with a good tune for reliability (i know rotary and reliable arnt usually put together but it can be done) it should be an awsome car with plenty of power and tons of revs

    What are you going to do about the exhaust. It's on the wrong side of the car so that's no doubt going to cause problems, particularly with the steering column cramping space. I really can't be bothered trying to educate people on the whole rotary's are not reliable crap, so I'll simply say this. Only idiots kill their rotors, if you have half a brain, they are perfectly reliable.

    <---- for all your gearbox needs

    You're also going to have to find a way to fit a nice big fat radiator and oil cooler to cope with the 13b.
    What are you going to be using this car for, is it going to be regoe'd or just a track crazy weapon?

    I don't know how it works in australia but in other countries rotaries are taxed and registered etc as higher capacity to than the 1.2, 1.3 and 2.0 (from memory something like it's 1.5 times or 2 times the capacity)

    WARNING if your going the 13b turbo route be very carefull cause your clutch and brake masters will be too close to the turbo , HEAT sheilds are a MUST if you want your clutch and brakes to work properly . If you don't do this you will almost definately be posting pics of a crashed 13b 86 and no one wants to see that .

    for the sceptic's I would also like to add that rotors are not unreliable unless you do the wrong thing , most people just don't know how to maintain them or they try to pull huge horsepower out of a motor that has never been rebuilt / has been rebuilt poorly , tuning is another key apsect as rotors go out of tune if you abuse them often , so regular air fuel ratio checks are a must to avoid leaning out . around the 170kw mark will be reliable and it will more than enuff power to give some one in the car a heart attack (trust me) and this number is easily attainable from a 13bt . good luck and I hope it all goes to plan :2thumbs:
