Very nice fabrication work but I don't get why you would want to put a rotary in a front wheel drive Honda? The front wheel drive is a far inferior drivetrain vs a rear wheel drive car, but I guess if you have more money than brains this is the kind of stuff you do. They could have spent half as much money and put this engine in a nice rx and be twice as fast.

How do you even know how much they spent? Besides, when you talk about modifying cars, talking money should rarely come into play. There are plenty of people who would think it ridiculous to spend a few thousand dollars to fix up a 15 year old Mazda! Cars are one of the worst investments around, that is fairly universal, the value is rarely going to appreciate. Dumping money into one, just makes it even more of a losing investment. As far as brains go, if this is a real setup, that takes some skill to fabricate everything to work properly...I certainly can't knock it. I would definitely rather have RWD than FWD, but hey, it is what it is.

i love seeing exotic swaps. it looks great, very nice fab work. def some real skill involved.

dont listen to these honda haters. in my book that is the tightest civic out there because of the power plant. i would smash it.

that turbo might be able to make 850 hp on a piston engine but not a rotary.

Why are people saying its a disgrace? Do you know what the Honda people are saying?

Probably something like "They put that rotary piece of **** in a Honda? What a disgrace!"

So whats the point in acting exactly like them. Why not take a step back and say "wow... Someone really has put some time and effort into this. They are really doing something ground breaking."

So stop being a douche and realize that they really are taking a step forward.

Really nice car by the way. I never thought I'd see a rotary Honda.

i think its pretty cool, although i dont think that civic weighs between 1500 and 2000 pounds, i think an EK hatch is 2500 it isnt bad, but its still front wheel drive so its going to have a ton of wheel spin.

monster power front wheel drive! great idea if you feel like hooking up in reverse. lol. that is awesome that there is a way to make a transaxle for rotary- maybe we're that close to making a mid-engine ferrari killer. 1st gen mr2 perhaps?

Its sad that a lot of people couldn't appreciate things... Even though you speak in a japanese english lingo, I think its still the **** that you guys did on that rotavic swap.... People that can't appreciate things like that are that people that pay to have people like you build it... Fabrication swap haters.... lol Jk
Given the fact that you are from Japan and lot of us understand you... Don't be sorry for your English dude.. There is a lot of born American that are worst in speaking their own lingo... hehehe lol Crazzzzyy F*cking Japanese build.....
