well, since its not a popular motor... you could put it in anything. If they can fit a 6.3L V8 Corvette engine into a Miata, they can fit a 4 rotor into anything.

so anyways enough about rotary engines, your making me horny. you could buy that mx3 and swap in a stock k8, you could easily buy a good running k8 off someone who put a ze into their car, the missiing parts are ok because you already have them with the k8 that comes with the mx3. you could probably pick up a used K8 real cheap. infact i have one! and everybody else with a ze or de mx3 probably has one lying around too. mines got 230 thou km and burns a significant amount of oil but im sure someone has a better k8 then that.

I know you believe that you understand what you think I said but I'm sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.

Well, all the external components swap from the K8 to the ZE no problem, the only stuff that differs is the internals, but if it's missing those, than that wouldn't be a good running K8, it wouldn't be running at all, lol.
