Current plans are to use the entire drivetrain from a 2000's Ford Focus to keep costs down. From what I've read the MTX75 is stout enough for my eventual power goals, has aftermarket support (diffs, gears, final drives), and cheap donor cars are everywhere. I've looked into other options, and im not happy abuot the 4x108 bolt pattern, but I'd consider that a minor inconvenience. The MTX75 also shares the same input shaft size/splines as the rx7 transmission, and doesnt use a pilot bearing, so adaptation should be easy. That being said, I'm still open to suggestions.
Cool to hear about someone working on something similar! I've only seen a couple instances of rotaries mated to a FWD transmission, so i'd be interested to see what else is out there.
