Yes mate. I've done most of the work on it myself, but it just needs to be mapped properly now. I've put an Re-Amemiya induction kit on it, HKS downpipe, Apexi PowerFC and an Apexi AVC-R on it. I also binned the sequential turbos, and have it running as a proper parallel turbo conversion, which meant porting out the wastegate, getting rid of all the solenoids and a few other little bits. It already had a cat back exhaust on it, as well as a decat pipe when I bought it, and i'm just trying to sort out a Blitz front mount and fuel pressure regulator for it, so Ross can map it properly.
Its much quicker than it was before. A bit of lag, then you hit 4.5k rpm
Sounds proper good then
mucho fun , Hasnt ross got any spare front mounts in?

those are some nice Rex's...
nismo is it true that if you blow a wankel engine you may aswell just do a conversion because they have two of everythign and it becomes very Expensive in the long run???

No when you blow a rotary its just normally the Tips that go if your lucky , sometimes they end up taking the rotor housings aswell but its best to replace most parts and start fresh again standard rebuild is about 2K-2.5K and while its out you had just aswell get the block Street Ported to get more power out so bout 3K all in.
Dan: that looks to bad , Stock front from mazda is about £900 so best to see ross

looks like quite a big gap on the right wing, unless that is just from the angle of the pic
