Hello All, New to this site, and worst of all I don't even have a rotary car! I am working on that now. In fact its probably been 20 years or so since I drove a rotary car. It was a first generation RX-7 and it was a blast. Looking to make myself a rotary powered Miata.

Welcome! i'll love to see that happen

That is a pretty common swap (at least with an NA). You should be able to find all kinds of info on it. A Turbo Rotary is not a common swap into a Miata (drivetrain won't take it very well).

Either way, welcome to the club! Hopefully you will get the swap done soon.

Welcome, love to see the updates.

Thank you all!
 

Yeah I want to see it too. I have had 3 miatas so far, 1 stock, 1 turbo, 1 SC. All great fun! I have always been fascinated by the engineering of a rotary engine and wish Mazda would have made a miata with one. Like a current version of a cosmo. Oh well, just picked up a project 92 miata with a broken timing belt cheap, will take pictures when it gets here and will start the teardown.

I have seen 2 turbo rotary miatas in the Miami area. The first one was around 1999 a neighbor of mine was storing it for a friend. Mind you this is when I had a 240 wheel HP turbo miata at the time. He took me for a ride and when the boost kicked in the car went sideways!!!!

A turbo rotary Miata is cool! I have never seen one. What did he do for the transmission and differential?
