Ben K's blog from Down Under
Ben K has been a valuable source of information from Australia and he started a blog of his own (Link above soon to be on left side) where he discusses the auto industry and his new project Harvey a Mazda sedan with a Toyota engine and tranny. I can only hope Ben pulls that powertrain out and installs a Rotary in it's place. Good luck Ben, I found the link on Bill D's blog, Bill is the researcher I've talked about before.

I'd love to stick a rotary in it but for the moment, there are several reasons not to, the first being that I'm way too poor to even buy a used, running, engine.
The second is that I've read about people sticking rotaries in these old Mazdas before and it's way beyond my current level of ability. We're talking custom cross-members, widening the transmission tunnel and then probably upgrading the diff.
So, it stays with the Toyota engine for now. Of course, another option could be a 1.6L MX-5 engine.
